Description: Everyone fights in New Eden. Some fight for power. Others for money. But out here, on the fringes of space, most fight simply to see another day. Far from the comforts of civilisation, the vast mining rig Kubera is your home. As a turret operator charged with destroying waves of attackers, you stand united with your crew mates in the defence of the rig. You are not a soldier, but a survivor – the scourge of would-be plunderers. With a formidable arsenal at your disposal, you will live the life of a Gunjack, protecting the Kubera, its precious cargo, and yourselves, from the bandits trying to blow the rig apart!

Review: Gunjack 2: End of Shift is a stunning game that takes mobile VR games to a new level of graphical heights. While I could complain about the location of the shield tap button I won’t because you do get used to it in the end. Heck, even the story is pretty interesting. When it comes to other niggles they are hardly worth mentioning so I won’t. What is worth mentioning is the extortionate price they ask for this game! If you go buying this game expecting a follow up to Gunjack with the bells and whistles attached to it you are going to be bitterly disappointed. What you do get is a better-looking version of Gunjack only with more levels that are all pretty much the same as every other level anyway!

Don’t get me wrong here, I get that they included both daily and weekly missions with this game meaning you will always have something to play, but its just the same ships, the same locations over and over again. Finish the relatively short campaign mode in this game and you have seen all the levels the game offers as well as shot all the different types of ship you will ever shoot! If you really love the Eve Universe of games and plan to finish every daily and weekly mission for a lest a few weeks you might feel you are getting value for money. But for those of us who like to plough through a game and move onto the next, it’s a very definite miss.
