MechWarrior 5: Clans
A mech sim that trades campaign storytelling for pure piloting challenge and clan warfare, landing somewhere between HOTAS-friendly and arcade-y depending on difficulty.
GamerScout Verdict
Solid for mech pilots hunting multiplayer combat, but lacks the narrative glue that makes MW5 memorable as a solo campaign.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About MechWarrior 5: Clans
MechWarrior 5: Clans strips away the single-player narrative structure of its predecessor and pivots toward multiplayer-focused mech customization and combat. You're flying giant robots across procedurally-varied maps, managing heat, weapon loadouts, and armor placement while your lance tackles contract objectives. If you've sunk time into the first MW5, you'll recognize the core loop: tweak your mech, run missions, earn credits, repeat. The formula works well enough for fans who just want to pilot and fight. What holds it back is the same problem that plagued MW5 originally: mission variety feels thin, and the campaign lacks the narrative hooks that keep you invested between sorties. The multiplayer angle is there if your crew's willing to squad up, which helps. Clans is best for players who see MechWarrior as a vehicle-sim-meets-tactics game, not a story-driven campaign. It's competent and scratches the itch, but doesn't reinvent what we already knew.
