Lawbreakers

Smash the system

Fresh powers and a fascinating setting mark this competitive class-based shooter out from the pack. Rocket-jumping Titans fry foes with crackling electricity from their fingers; Assassins latch onto scenery – and indeed other players – with a grappling hook, and slash foes with a blade; Vanguards literally fly around levels firing miniguns and kicking people in the face. Stages stand out, too: it’s set in a futuristic America after a global seismic event known as The Shattering alters gravity itself. Good if you’ve a love/hate relationship with the ground.
