Over two years of development were necessary for the completion of what could be Activision's most successfull title ever on the PC platform. Based on the FASA's BattleTech Universe, MechWarrior II features a unique 3D engine that generates polygon-based terrains in real-time with various environments and immerses the players into a no-mercy challenge.

Die lange Wartezeit hat sich gelohnt. MechWarrior 2 kann durch die vielen kleinen Details überzeugen. Selbst Feinheiten, wie der Todessprung, wurden berücksichtigt. Eingeschworene BattleTech-Fans werden vor allem die Modifikationsmöglichkeiten begrüßen. Einziges Manko sind die schwachen Textures. Trotzdem kann jeder Fan bedenkenlos zuschlagen!

GameSpot
This is no cake walk: MechWarrior 2 is a tough, demanding game, with challenging controls and opponents. Maneuvering both the Mech and the turret can be a tricky proposition at times. With controls more like those of a flight sim, and a need for strategy and planning, this is not your average action game. It demands a lot of computer systems and gamers alike, but it delivers like nothing else around.

PC Player (Germany)
Auch ohne den FASA-Atmosphäre-Bonus wäre Mech Warrior 2 ein erstklassiges Spiel. Grafisch ist in den Missionen und in den Menüs einiges geboten, außerdem stimmt die Mischung aus Action und Strategie mit einem guten Schuß Simulation einfach.

High Score
Mechwarrior är ett mycket underhållande spel för alla som tycker om annorlunda simulatorer.

Overall, Mechwarrior 2 is a solid game. When you get to the eighth or ninth level in one of the clans and manage to win promotion up the ranks, it starts to get interesting. Unfortunately, it never manages to hook you in with any addictive flavour.
