Gameplay

93 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Been having a lot of fun with the game, tried out most of the game modes and am now going with sprint for the king of the hill multiplayer. the game has a certain amount of replayability but the limited amount of classes and items so you could run through the whole game within 10 hours(additional dlc excluded) then get bored with it.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Great visuals, catchy music, sassy dialogue during events, which were a highlight of the game; decent variety of game modes and constant balance updates.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Complementing this is a pulsing, synth-heavy soundtrack that reinforces the game’s dystopian tone while maintaining a sense of fun.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
5 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is the kind of game I can't wait to play non-stop on a Steamdeck.
