"Warborn is a game that teeters on the edge of brilliance. Poor AI and a few quality of life issues tarnish an otherwise great game. A solid TBS that can be enjoyed by newcomers and veterans alike."

"Warborn is a solid and dependable Advance Wars-alike. There&s;s nothing wrong with being an unspectacular offering, but with a few additions, alterations and improvements, Warborn could have been absolutely essential for Advance Wars fans. It&s;s so close to being awesome, …"

"Warborn has a great foundation of SRPG mechanics and beautiful animations. However, I never once felt connected or concerned about my units or challenged after the first few minutes of a match. Each campaign plays out relatively the same, and …"

"Warborn set out to bring a great tactics game inspired by mech anime and I would say it has. It misses the mark here and there but fans of tactics games should consider this a victory."

"It gets all the basics of the genre right, but it simply lacks any depth, and becomes an incredibly grindy only a few missions into the campaign. Interestingly, all the basics are there, it merely is lacking any exciting options, …"

"While Warborn is not technically a bad game, it&s;s fairly unremarkable. The story is bland, combat is more tactics than anything else and there isn&s;t the charm that made similar franchises work. I don&s;t have a Laharl to drive the …"
