Cosmic Break is a free to play 3D MMO third-person shooter with big robots and colorful, explosive battles in an anime style. The game was developed and published by the Japanese company CyberStep, Inc. and has been officially released in several different countries, including Japan, Taiwan, Thailand and North America, with other areas like the EU, Germany and France preparing for official release. Cosmic Break is the sequel to another game by CyberStep, called C21 Steel Battle Chronicles, but contains more anime-styled characters, deeper developed story lines and offers thus more immersion. Several story lines have also been made into mangas and short movies, which are connected to some of the quests in the game. As is the case with GetAmped2, Cosmic Break also has various NPCs and playable characters voiced by famous Japanese voice-over artists. Among these are Rie Tanaka (Icy, Ivis), Akio Ōtsuka (Draken), Takeshi Kusao (Lios), Asami Shimoda (Crimrose, Lily Rain), Atsuko Tanaka (Koko Gaap, Winberrl) and Daisuke Sakaguchi (Jikun Hu).
The game is set in the distant future in a parallel dimension called the Cosmic Ark. There is a race of long-dormant, gigantic robots called Arks, which have suddenly awakened to find their galaxy being ruled by the evil Chaos. Since they lay dormant for aeons, the three remaining great Arks of Wisdom, Courage and Strength have been drained of their energy, and now there is only enough energy remaining for one of them to be revived with the power to vanquish the evil Chaos. In order to accomplish this, three different Unions of followers of each of the great Arks have formed, each competing for the revival of their respective Ark and thereby, for the defeat of the Chaos and the fate of the world.
Besides this overarching story, there are several backstories of characters of the game. There is, for example, the background of Crimrose and Ivis, the story of Eihwaz, or the meeting between Eris and Resha among others.
Gameplay
Upon entering the game, players are to choose an initial robot as well as the Union, which they want to join. There are three Unions:- Bladine – This Union values courage and loyalty above everything else. It is lead by the Guardian Lios who has very strong morals and an extraordinary sense of justice.
- Wizdom – Wizdom is led by the Guardian Icy, a sharp tactician who believes strongly in the superiority of knowledge on the battlefield. Wizdom's members are very apt at using strategy and tactics in the battlefield and are very intelligent.
- Dostrex – Led by the Guardian Dracken who believes in sheer strength to overcome adversaries. Yet in spite of their belief in their own power, members of Dostrex also value honour and don't pick fights with those weaker than themselves.
- Air robots feature longer-lasting boosters and better mid-air agility than any of the other types.
- Land robots excel in ground combat and melee attacks. They are very fast and maneuvrable.
- Artillery robots are specialized in heavy and long-range firepower.
- Support robots are quite balanced without any major strengths or weaknesses, but they come with special repair skills.
