Planetside 2 is a first person shooter game on a scale rarely seen before. We are talking about multiple continents, huge territories, multiple bases (small and big) all over the maps. A great selection of weapons, attachments, vehicles and cosmetic customization.

A distinctive feature of Planetside 2 is of course the huge battles that take place with hundreds or even thousands of players. The war is never ending. That makes PS2 very addictive because as opposed to a round based game, there is no downtime. There is always a battle somewhere to participate and hours can go pretty fast.

When putting the settings at max, the Forgelight engine looks very good. It makes Planetside 2 a very immersive and stunning game. At night, the light effects caused by the missiles and tracers are impressive. The sound quality is also very good, especially with surround.

It is a free to play game and from my personal experience, the starting gear is more than good enough to be able to fight competitively against people who dropped some cash. In general, all weapons can be unlocked overtime anyway, without necessarily paying. Cosmetics are bought with Sony's Station Cash.

All in all a great FPS game, complex, satisfying, with a good gun play.
