This strategy sequel’s biggest new innovation is that its robot protagonists can now switch freely between different battlefield jobs, and combine abilities unlocked in each together. Though there are only six roles, there’s an impressive depth to the amount of different possible combinations. That’s emblematic of a sequel that expands on its predecessor in almost every way.
