Overview & Key Takeaways

Upcoming sci-fi RPG Ares: The Iron Vanguard has now opened pre-registration on iOS and Android. Set to arrive later this year, The Iron Vanguard reimagines the Ares universe as a mostly single-player experience compared to its MMORPG roots. But it's not slim on gameplay with options for co-op alongside a solid solo experience. Taking place in the year 3400, you're part of a task force aimed at stopping a new evil from overtaking the galaxy. Exploring and doing battle in massive cities and across uncharted planets, you'll switch in real-time between different Battle Suits, boasting radically altered abilities, as you fight for humanity's survival. ...

Upcoming sci-fi RPG Ares: The Iron Vanguard has now opened pre-registration on iOS and Android. Set to arrive later this year, The Iron Vanguard reimagines the Ares universe as a mostly single-player experience compared to its MMORPG roots. But it's not slim on gameplay with options for co-op alongside a solid solo experience.

Taking place in the year 3400, you're part of a task force aimed at stopping a new evil from overtaking the galaxy. Exploring and doing battle in massive cities and across uncharted planets, you'll switch in real-time between different Battle Suits, boasting radically altered abilities, as you fight for humanity's survival.

Guarding the van

So, Battle Suits are essentially like switching classes in real-time. But you'll also be able to hop behind the controls of much bigger war machines such as the lumbering Goliath and soaring Valkyrie. And even though it's not an MMORPG like the original, The Iron Vanguard also boasts both co-op PvP and PvE content to play!

Com2uS have also complemented the launch of pre-registration with the announcement of their creator program, which encourages creators to cover the upcoming game.

As I said before, while Ares: The Iron Vanguard is quite similar to stuff we've seen before, it does have shades of Planetside with its vast open-scale battles, and Titanfall with the enormous suits that drop in to lend a hand. And while I doubt it'll truly commit to emulating either of these, if it even comes close to offering a similar experience alongside typical fast-paced ARPG gameplay, I reckon we're onto a winner.

In the meantime, while you wait for Ares: The Iron Vanguard to release, why not try some of the other great games available in our list of the best shooters on iOS? Train up that itchy trigger in preparation for saving the universe.

Slots & Daggers sees you leaving things up to chance in this dark fantasy Balatro-like

Ever since Balatro combined the roguelike with poker, it seems that many developers have tried their hand at coming up with a similar combination. And the RPG has been a favourite to try and put a twist on, as you can see with the newly released Slots & Daggers for iOS and Android! Already releasing on Steam to rave reviews, Slots & Daggers combines a strange dark fantasy world with slot-machine style spins to acquire weapons, armour and equipment.

The Convergence is a dark fantasy auto-battler that uses an isometric perspective

As we head towards midday, there's an interesting little iOS auto-battler that's just crossed my desk. That's a genre I've often expressed confusion about the appeal of in the past, but if there's one that can justify why people like it, I reckon that The Convergence, out now on iOS, may just be that! With its isometric perspective and dark fantasy world, it's easy to see that The Convergence may have taken some significant inspiration from the world of Diablo. In it, you equip your heroes and send them out, watching as they either succeed or fail based on your preparation. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/the-convergence/out-now-on-ios/)

MoonDust: Cosmic Journey is an atmospheric sci-fi side-scroller with lush graphics

It's hard to really communicate the majesty and grandeur of outer space in gaming. I mean, there's only so many times you can stare in wonder at stars and nebulae before it all gets a bit samey. Fortunately, MoonDust: Cosmic Journey offers a truly visually attention-grabbing take on worlds of sci-fi and outer space! Available now on iOS, MoonDust is described by the developer as an atmospheric sci-fi exploration game. What that means is you'll have basic side-scrolling action in the foreground as you pilot your ship and avoid obstacles while collecting different elements, as in the background a gorgeous vista of strange alien worlds goes by. ...
