TerraTech Legion blends its Lego-like building mechanic with a gameplay loop from the survivorlike and bullet heaven genres.<\/p>\n<p>        <span class=\"&#10;            flex&#10;            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-[#ccc]&#10;            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-[#ccc]&#10;            font-article-heading pb-0 text-[length:var(--article-river-title--font-size,1em)] uppercase sm:text-[length:var(--article-river-title--font-size,0.875em)] font-bold&#10;        \"><br \/>\n            You may like<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<p>    <span class=\"inline-flex items-center gap-1.5 text-sm font-article-heading capitalize leading-5 text-white whitespace-nowrap\"><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-mobile\"\/><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-desktop\">Latest Videos From<\/span><span class=\"jwp-carousel-brand inline-flex items-center\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In TerraTech Legion, the galaxy has been taken over by a swarm of AI bots that is destroying everything in its path, but players can pick up the mantle as one of four tech jockeys, each with their own unique build specifications and abilities.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, only tech jockey Mikela is available to players, but her Ranger 1 \u2014 complete with stun boost and shockwave abilities \u2014 is an excellent all-around introductory vehicle for players who are new to TerraTech.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"youtube-video-title\">&#8220;The most addictive game on Xbox right now&#8221;: TerraTech Legion is fantastic &#8211; YouTube<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Watch On <\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-6f9f5588-410d-4b8e-ab1e-c93e30fa494c\">After choosing a tech jockey and mission, players are dropped into a map with a barebones vehicle build to face off against the swarm, though early attack methods are extremely limited. The Ranger 1, for example, starts off with just one little gun, which doesn\u2019t seem to do much against the horde. Thankfully, Mikela\u2019s signature boost allows players to ram into enemies and leave them stunned temporarily, giving the weapon a chance to knock down some of the swarm to earn XP.<\/p>\n<p>Similar to other survivorlikes and bullet heavens, TerraTech enemies drop XP and crates for the player to collect. Modular parts that snap onto the vehicle are stored until enough XP is collected to max out the player\u2019s current level. At that point, a beacon is dropped with a health regenerative field. Driving into the beacon gives the player a new menu where they can then freely build onto their vehicle before going back into battle.<\/p>\n<p>Leveling up also unlocks special crates, which can only be accessed during the build menu, giving players the chance to select upgrades that can be attached to their build. In survivorlike fashion, crates drop three upgrades for players to choose from, though some modifiers that crop up throughout your playthrough can impact the available options.<\/p>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\">\n<p><span class=\"caption-text\">Players can unlock permanent upgrades for each Tech Jockey that can improve the odds of progressing further in future runs. <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Windows Central, Mythwright, Payload Games)<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-eccc9bca-b5ad-41e7-ae1c-067dcec63552\">There are over 200 blocks that can be acquired and added to your vehicle build, giving you the opportunity to build out tech that fights the swarm the way you want. Change out wheels for tracks, add buzzsaws and lasers. Build a stacked behemoth with guns and lasers up and down the sides to create a mobile destruction tower or choose Jean Pierre as your tech jockey and shamble together some battering rams and heavy armor to create an indestructible tank that takes out the swarm on impact.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t be too overambitious, though. Players have to manage vehicle weight, balance, and available modules to make sure that once you\u2019re back on the battlefield, you can actually still steer to your destination, lest you be blown to smithereens by the bots you were supposed to destroy.<\/p>\n<p>TechTerra Legion is a roguelike, so if your vehicle does happen to fall apart during a run, you\u2019ll have to pick up the pieces and start from scratch. However, there are some permanent upgrade tracks for each tech jockey that can help make potential runs go a little smoother. The longer you can stay alive, the more likely you are to encounter each of the four levels\u2019 big bosses, the ultimate challenge to your vehicle-building skills.<\/p>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\">\n<p><span class=\"caption-text\">Each mission arena has a <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Windows Central, Mythwright, Payload Games)<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-5a6636ca-6509-4f6e-8487-a44712e35d15\">Pick your jockey, build your vehicle, and survive the swarm in TerraTech Legion, developed by Payload Studios and published by Mythwright, available now on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, and Xbox Cloud Gaming with support for Xbox Play Anywhere entitlements. The game is under $10 at launch and is available on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass.
