PC Critic Reviews

Strike Vector is a fast paced, high customizable old school space shooter that will blow you away with its gorgeous graphics and its satisfying and frenzied gameplay.

While a bit rough around the edges and not exactly great when it comes to content, this is probably the best arena shooter we've played in years. With an hard to master and brilliant high-speed gameplay, Ragequit's game has the ability to awaken the competitive spirit of every veteran of the genre, doesn't matter how shriveled it is by today's standards. Quite the amazing feat.

Strike Vector is an excellent online flight shooter that requires rapidity and dexterity.

Strike Vector is definitely well crafted, it just needs more variety to really shine.

Strike Vector is a unique, must-consider offering for all those who wish to experience something competitive fast, balanced and damn hard.

Strike Vector delivers a hardcore multiplayer experience that's easy to learn but difficult to master.

Although Strike Vector is enjoyable to play then, its current range of content hardly represents stellar value at a launch price of £18.99 - even if it is all available up front. RageQuit is promising frequent, and entirely free updates over the coming months however, so if you consider that lump sum a gamble on a lifetime membership to a subscription service then it becomes a little more palatable.

Those players who enjoyed games like Unreal Tournament will find a game with much of its essence, but with spaceships. We expect more content and game modes to expand the experience, but it is a good start.

The developers – aptly named Ragequit – focused on the big picture, which is wonderfully captured dogfights between megabots, but they've neglected to tie all its complex pieces together with a useful tutorial.

Strike Vector is a game with great ideas, and really breathes some life into a dying genre. The game’s challenge may be a bit too much for casual players, but if you’re looking to scratch that aerial shooter itch with a frantic edge, then take to the skies — but don’t expect to live long.
