Totally Accurate Battle Simulator Mobile revealed as TABS Mobile

The wobbly, silly world of Totally Accurate Battle Simulator is finally coming to mobile! After years of waiting, the PC and console game makes its mobile debut thanks to publisher TapTap. However, fans have some huge concerns. 

Revealed during TapTap’s annual “TapTap Presents” showcase, TABS Mobile allows you to create massive battles with crazy physics. Essentially, you’re playing with a sentient toy box, setting up scenarios and watching two armies take each other out. 

The developers have calmed down initial fan fears by revealing that TABS Mobile is a premium experience. No more pay-to-win, free-to-start gubbins here; Totally Accurate Battle Simulator Mobile is a proper premium release. That should mean there’s a bar of quality to clear. 

Unfortunately, there will not be any cross-platform multiplayer between the mobile and console versions of the game. However, us Droid Gamers will be able to play with gamers of another mobile OS. (Yes, Android and iOS had cross-play.) 

Another blow is that it seems mods won’t be supported in the same way as the PC version. Instead of letting players do whatever they see fit, curated mods may arrive at some point in the future. At least it’s something!

With so many physics calculations going on every second, the game is known for stressing CPUs in huge battles. Of course, with such a huge game on mobile, many are worried about its performance. However, according to the developers, performance is actually rock solid on mobile devices. They explained:

“It is true that mobile hardware performance is inferior to that of PCs, but in our preliminary tests so far, the game’s performance on mobile has been better than we had expected and we’re going to be doing heaps of performance
