Lightyear Frontier Early Access Review

Lightyear Frontier Early Access reviewed by Jon Bolding on PC, also available on Xbox.
Lightyear Frontier is already a fun farming and crafting game that takes some pretty simple genre basics and makes them exciting again by putting you in a big stompy mech suit. Things can start a little slow and the story definitely ends too early as of its Early Access launch, but the charming world to explore and make your own outshines its current limitations.

“Standby for Titanfarm” is genius

[@justinvanhorne9958]

Please stop encouraging IGN.
Signed, the Internet.

[@Monster-gr8on]

A mech that needed 3 chops to cut down that twig. Im in

[@ravenbom]

Never knew I've been waiting for a Mecha Harvest Moon / Stardew Valley.

[@DEIVION212]

Love Death Robots fans finalllllly get the game season 1 was clearly inspiring lol

[@BarakaTheGreat]

They need occasional alien swarms hitting your farm

[@Ryuzaki712]

IF ONLY it had the same menaces :(

[@goodluck7276]

We need a game that revolves around your mech, which is an exploration, survival, and horror game set on another planet. It would also be great to see you have to get out to do things like open areas or upgrade the mech. It would be a game kind of like Pacific Drive

[@CMcFuzz]

Go play Riftbreaker. The game you're talking about already exists.

[@dreaming-of-spots6805]

I've been playing this all day today- 10/10, do recommend

[@FacemanGaming108]

Harvestmoon + mecha = I'm in.

[@nick-illcityreppin-sknk]

Lumberjacks will love this

[@ankey7384]

The mechs remind me slightly of Steambot Chronicles. Man, someone needs to make a new game about it.

[@WanderingSquire]

Looks really cool!

[@user-lm3nr1yc2t]

The ign 7 nobody seen that coming 😂

[@nicktronson2977]

We are nobody.

[@Iwuznothere]

Steambot Chronicles if it completely removed the stock market and combat esthetic and focused more on what if your car was a robot but in space.

[@rapatouille]

nice farming mech

[@second_conflict]

Anyone else see the mech design and colors and immediately think Steambot Chronicles? If only 😭😅

[@gurthang667]

Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time.

[@endeavourO1]

Isn't there a vehichles mode would love if they kept that❤

[@LogicalError007]

Saw Lirik playing this. It's decent.

[@dsfGuest]

Ign might as well work at 7-11

[@nicktronson2977]

7 gets IGN bonus comments like this.

[@GeneralComeBack]

Got a 7. Surprise surprise

[@rounakmanna5916]

Why do u linger in this channel still ?? Fu*k off !!
Nobody is asking u to follow this crappy channel at all...

[@kippy2995]

The best part of this game is that there are no MicroPurchases! It’s all in game Economics which is AWESOME!

[@ClorkBens]

Harvest Moon x Titanfall, let's go!

[@harizfadhilah6149]

STEAMBOT CHRONICLES

[@blazeup1132]

Why does this sound like it was recorded in a bathroom?

[@smachdos1593]

Cause it was recorded in a bathroom

[@jcy089]

Booo! You didn't try the mech chainsaw on the alien chicken!

[@mrmcthiccc5053]

This games art and hud remind me of outer worlds

[@headwreak1768]

This is the titanfall 3 we didn't ask for, but needed!

[@kippy2995]

Think of this as a TitanFall 3 before the mechs were used for War, the beginning!

[@Nivel1988]

When the game is complete, let me know. I'm sick of early access

[@suvendroseal1724]

Score is 7

[@FullStackFool]

Added to this list of games that distract me while waiting for Scrap Mechanic to FINALLY update 🙄

[@Memelord2020]

7/10

[@fairmonkey4786]

Titanfall 3?

[@kazkaz7743]

Dreadnought: heretic tree.......burn in holy fire

[@motorcycle-man]

[@wolfie98]

[@scottc9383]

This guy sounds like the teacher from Beavis and Butthead. Definitely likes to chill out bro...

[@Booneface]

They gave it a H+

[@Sithgazmm]

No man’s sky

[@AliHh-we1nu]

باحاله

[@SinCitysOnly]

What about holding yourself accountable for your articles?

[@cattothefuture]

Farmnautica

[@singularitybound]

The way they fall over just touching even a rock is just awful.. makes them act like balloons not a heavy metal mech.. and no combat at all :/.
Oh well.

[@mattmedwards]

🥱

[@PotatoJonson]

[@ThePughski]

The most "Gamepass" game ever

[@smachdos1593]

Gamepass: The Videogame

[@haruruben]

Finally a new way to chop down trees in a video game! Now that’s innovation 😂

[@Kratosftwstw]

The score is 7.

[@osmarchito]

Why you gotta spoiled the whole video

[@NickMaovich]

6.5/10 no comeback mechanics

[@chronodis]

comeback?

[@samhanmma]

We already have lego Fortnite and minecraft which are the best and enough for crafiting games

[@user-ni7qv1nd8o]

Do they have mechs

[@Pl4sm0]

Sound boring af lol

[@kingpick240]

can we stop with all the cozy crafting survival games already?

[@coops7675]

Yeah come on, we need another Call of Duty!

[@Spychopunk2077]

the game is bad, they cant even figure out how to optimize for the graphic it flick every 5 second.

[@Bfkcjscbsnjc]

These "building" games are getting out of hand, nothing but lazy cash grabs.

[@KingOfTheSoulSociety]

It literally isn't tho...

[@ChezMclegend]

How much $$ have you blown in your free to play/gotcha game we all know you play?

[@TheJaBuLs]

….well that’s not true lmfao

[@notsmugenough]

At least play the demo. While the concept itself isn't new but if you really call this game a "lazy cash grabs", you probably haven't played enough video games.

[@bartoszwozniak8904]

What are u on ab💀💀
