Some can be beaten in under a minute, while others may take a little bit (but not too much) longer. It?s got a campaign, but the campaign is made up of a series of short, bite-sized missions.

On top of that, given its mobile roots Modern Combat Blackout kind of makes sense on the Switch in a way that CoD or Battlefield wouldn?t. So, in that respect, it?s kind of neat to see something that isn?t that far off from those games. Sure, it has Doom and Wolfenstein, but if you?re looking for Call of Duty or Battlefield, you won?t find either on Nintendo?s handheld. After all, while the Switch seems to get a few dozen new games every week, when it comes to first-person shooters, there?s not a lot. In a way, Modern Combat Blackout continues this tradition of putting out a polished clone on a platform that doesn?t have the original. What?s more, I first played some of their games - stuff like God of War clone Hero of Sparta, generic racer Asphalt, and GTA/Saints Row-imitator Gangstar - during a time when I wasn?t really playing any console games, and they got me interested in checking out the source material they were ripping off.

On the other hand, their rip-offs are usually fairly well-made. On the one hand, they specialize in mobile games that barely make any effort to hide the better-known console games they?re ripping off.

The 5 main entries of the series have been met with mainly positive reviews from critics, while the spin-off games Modern Combat: Domination and Modern Combat: Versus received mixed reviews.I?ve always had a bit of a soft spot for Gameloft.
