Is Ironsight worth playing now that it’s on Steam? Let’s review. Ironsight starts off with a simple but believable premise. The year is 2025, and natural resources have become scarce in most areas around the world. The Middle East, however, still has a bountiful amount of natural resources, and two main factions began to clash over control of the region. The first faction is the NAF: short for North Atlantic Federation, the group is an alliance formed between the United States and Europe.

The second faction is a Russian transnational corporation called EDEN, which contracts mercenaries to do its’ bidding. The “story”, doesn’t have an actual ending as you would expect from an MMOFPS and just serves as an unneeded, but a nice backdrop to explain why all these guys are running around shooting each other. But that’s not why you’re here. You’re here because you want to shoot people. Is Iron Sight a good game to satisfy your multiplayer FPS itch?

The Gameplay

Iron Sight has 4 PVE and PVP game modes respectively although only one PVE game mode is of any real importance. The first PVE game mode is a tutorial, which was likely thrown in as a formality more than out of necessity. All four PVP Game Modes are what you’d expect from a modern FPS. You’ve Team Deathmatch, Search and Destroy, Resource Takeover, and Secure Point; the last of which is used in the game’s ranked matches.

The game has over a dozen of maps at the moment, and they’re pretty standard for a futuristic FPS. An airport, a dam, an enclosed city-based area etc. Most of the maps are pretty well-laid out, with no choke points where players can cheese through matches. Some of the maps though are too spaced out and as a result, there may be lulls in the action but nothing too bad. I would’ve liked to have seen a bit more creativity on the maps though.

The Graphics

As far as visuals go, Iron Sight is rock-solid. Or iron solid is perhaps more appropriate. At first glance, the game could easily be mistaken for a last-gen console shooter in the mold of notable FPS franchises such as Call of Duty, Tom Clancy or Medal of Honor. The graphics are good in general, but particularly for an F2P MMO. F2P MMOs are always a mixed bag in the graphics department, and you never know what you’re going to get, but the devs put in a lot of work here. The game runs on its’ own proprietary Iron Engine and the devs should be proud of the job they’ve done.

Is It Pay To Win?

Most of the microtransactions in Iron Sight are purely for cosmetics. And that’s how it should be. You do need to repair your weapons after matches, which takes up gold (the game’s earnable currency), but the repair costs are never steep. You earn gold through a number of ways, the easiest being by simply playing matches. You also get gold from leveling up, completing challenges, and from logging in via the daily login rewards.

Iron Sight also has the expected loot crates, in the forms of supply and superior supply chests. These can be bought with either earnable or premium currency. I tried a few out, and they seem fair. You can get anything from these things, gloves, scopes, sights or even new guns. And again, you don’t need to buy anything in this game with your own hard-earned money, and playing as an F2P player is more than possible

Worth Playing?

Make no mistake. There is nothing on offer in Iron Sight that is groundbreaking or in any way reinvents the wheel. The game draws inevitable comparisons to Call of Duty, and for good reason; it looks and plays like a yesteryear Call of Duty. And that’s not a bad thing.

Iron Sight is fun. It’s simple and fast-paced. It’s a game you can play for a few minutes or a few hours. Despite the F2P MMO label, it doesn’t suffer from problems that plague a number of F2P MMOs, and it doesn’t employ an obnoxious microtransactions game model that pushes people away. It’s a great game and well worth playing.

gamigo’s action-packed Sci Fi shooter Ironsight expands its Open Beta on 18 December with a big content update and arrival on Steam. With the support of the Steam community, gamigo will launch the final phase of Ironsight’s Open Beta and prepare for a release in 2020.

“In recent years, we’ve worked hard with the developer Wiple Games to optimize Ironsight,” says producer Edouard Denat. “It’s not for nothing that Ironsight is already compared to the world’s biggest shooter brands.”

The update will include two new maps, a Capture the Flag mode, an additional drone and many new skins. Recovery will also start the second season of the Battle Pass.

In Ironsight, players can utilize numerous drones to defeat their enemies. Aggressive on the front or strategical from a safe distance, there are drones for every play style. Different Game-Modes such as Team Deathmatch and Search and Destroy allow players to individualize their gaming experience on the 13 different maps.

eSports fans players watch their team succeed in the improved Spectator Mode, including an X-Ray and Static Cameras. The recently added Map – Tower, offers new thrilling 6v6 combat high up in the air. Players can look forward to a plethora of exciting content that has been added in regular updates this year, including customizable weapons and character skins.

More details about the big update Recovery will follow soon. More information about Ironsight can be found on the official website.

gamigo has revealed the next major update for its futuristic Shooter Ironsight. Players can look forward to additional content, exciting events and a fresh gaming experience.

The Sci-Fi Shooter introduces its own “Battle Pass”. The new “Iron Pass” is available for all players but also can be purchased as a bonus to unlock even more content and exclusive rewards. Blazing through its 30 tiers, players can take on seasonal challenges, or complete their daily contracts in order to receive medals to unlock weapons with amazing skins, boxes and much more.

The much requested “Ranked Mode” has been re-done and celebrates its epic comeback in this update. For the first time, a new feature allows players to queue up with their friends. Each season will feature four maps, on which players will have to fight each other. Different dog tags will be rewarded at the end of each season depending on the players’ performance.

“Both teams – gamigo in Berlin and Wiple Games in Seoul have been working diligently on fulfilling the game’s true potential. We’ve also got the support of our amazing community, for which we’re eternally grateful. This update offers a great opportunity for our players to discover what makes Ironsight such an enjoyable experience,” says the_Director, Product Manager of Ironsight.

Many of the challenging Multiplayer-Maps have been polished. Additional features included in the update are “Custom Match improvements” and a revamped “Loadout Screen UI” as well as the “Drone System,” which allows players to send their Drones and Mechs into battle. New skins such as the community created skin “Kraken” for the Desert Eagle complete the picture.

More information about Ironsight and the update can be found on the official website.

Ironsight Features:

  • In-house Iron Engine™: Make use of a dynamic environment and its tactical advantages
  • Gripping multiplayer action: Participate in the fight for the last resources on Earth
  • 12 different maps: Play at a wide range of locations and with realistic weather effects
