    A blindingly gorgeous shooter and an absolute bargain. [Feb 2013, p.92]

    The game is a relatively fun deathmatch title, though its technical issues and general lack of maps as well are a killer at the moment.

    As a free release, DeadZone is a terrific, if buggy online-only shooter that blurs the line between mobile and console gaming.

    You can see that Shadowgun: Deadzone has potential, but it's also largely unfinished, with lots of lag, serious crashes and few contents. It's free to download though, so it's easy to recommend to try it and eventually keeping your fingers crossed for some huge upgrades.

    It is indeed better, more complete and entertaining than the first version, but still we think there's something missing. The freemium concept makes its offer more accessible, so if you're a fan of the genre it's worth a try.

    Gorgeous to look at but ultimately frustrating to play, Shadowgun: DeadZone needs a lot of work before it becomes the finished article.

    Unfortunately, Shadowgun: DeadZone is a technical mess. The game crashes almost as often as it works, and when it does work the online lag will make it seem like players are practically teleporting across the map.
