Play Overview
Destruction AllStars (2021) is a futuristic combat-destruction sports game. You compete in teams in a destruction derby arena battle and slam into other players' cars to disable them. It's Robot Wars and Battle Bots in style complete with special weapons and spinning discs. Here though, you can also get out of the cars as a last-ditch attempt to survive.
Like Rocket League, you need to learn the mechanics of the cars as well as make use of the arena architecture and hazards. Out of the cars, Fortnite, you can attack the vehicles with special attacks, turn on additional hazards and even cling to the roofs of cars while they drive.
You score points by the size of the collisions. This means you need to keep the momentum going until you need it. Then, when you eject, you race to find a new vehicle before you are mowed down by other drivers. On foot, each character has different powers when they are in a vehicle. Again, you need to use these wisely if you are to find your way to another car and get back in the match.
The vehicles each perform differently and can trigger special offensive or defensive moves. This is a brash exuberant and full-contact sport, but the damage is limited to the cars rather than the people.
