  6.0

  The game has unique mechanics that are genuinely fun to put into action, but it's still a generic monetary title. Developer PlayFusion plans to continue updating the game by adding new content. Champions has more longevity to it than other CCGs out there. It's an entertaining title for a time-sink for when you're waiting at the doctor's office, but it falls short of being a good console game.

  The digital version of the game itself is great. It allows you to build decks, view your collections, do daily or weekly challenges to obtain more digital cards, and you can buy digital packs based on your faction via the in-game store with premium of free currency, earned by simply playing matches. The digital version of AOS: Champions is well-polished, easy to understand, has fun attack animations and is really functional. The only con to the digital version is the soundtrack. The consistent drumming gets old fast and you’ll be quickly muting the music in the game.

  7.0

  Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Champions may not be as flashy or high budget as most other franchise CCG spin-offs, but it makes up for that with pure quality. An engaging core mechanic that promotes fast yet tactical play, a variety of modes for players of all types, an economy model that isn’t designed simply to eat through your wallet, there is a lot to love here.

  7.5

  Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Champions managed to impress me in multiple ways. While the game looks nice enough, the presentation is purely background for some fantastic gameplay elements. The grid system and its approach are really fun to play around with and give you just tons to consider. That being said, the tutorial can be a bit confusing and throws you into the game proper with very little care. Once you get over that hump, you will find that it can be learned through a number of games. There are deliberate systems at play, but the game guides you to where you need to go.

  8.0

  In the highly competitive world of CCGs, PlayFusion has taken one of the biggest fantasy licences and seamlessly melded it with a card battling system that's both easy to grasp and different enough to set itself apart from its contemporaries. With the addition of extra modes, including the Arena of Echoes and Realm Trials, and the option to scan in cards from your physical deck, there's a deep and customisable experience that's ideal for genre veterans.
