An improved version of RoboCraft, created by the authors of the original title – studio Freejam. The gameplay focuses on multiplayer battles with other players.

So many parts enable the player to experiment and try various things, making each machine on the battlefield unique.
Robocraft Infinity is an improved version of the popular free-to-play computer game RoboCraft. Contrary to the previous game, the new title, released on Windows 10 and Xbox One, isn’t available for free. However, it is part of the Xbox Play Anywhere initiative – if the player buys one platform version in the digital store, he receives the other one for free. The game was developed by the creators of the original title, Freejam studio.
Robocraft Infinity for XONE and PC is an unusual online game that combines traits of titles like World of Tanks. The main objective is to fight other players by using special vehicles. The vehicles aren’t selected from a list of available machines, but created by the player in a simple editor that features more than one hundred modules and components. So many parts enable the player to freely experiment and test various ideas, making each machine unique. The machines can be stored in garage and modified between each battle.
The game can be played alone or in cooperation with friends. Players can create platoons and fight together with other players for victory – just like in the original version.
Robocraft Infinity features some novelties when compared to the free Robocraft. The developers introduced new physics system and new progression system. In addition to that, they implemented achievements and improved the controls.

While you can of course use Xbox Game to try this out for yourself, I can't say that you'll be playing Robocraft Infinity for long. Limited tools aside, the construction process is the best thing the game has going for it, while the multiplayer just seems to play second fiddle; there's too much focus on the creation and not enough on making the game fun. I'm sure they'll add things to it, but the progression is just a tad on the frustrating side.

Robocraft Infinity can certainly be a lot of fun, it has balanced multiplayer and is exciting to play.
Metro GameCentral: 5 / 10
A fine idea in theory but while deg your own robots does have some unwanted limitations it's the dull multiplayer that really shorts its circuits.
