What players say
Easy anti-cheat sucks and there is no obvious way to run this in offline mode. After running it for 3 hours, I ran into a BS driver conflict with EAC. Also had to manually modify controller config files to get this to work with my 8bitdo Ultimate 2 controller. I regret my purchase.

not that bad of a game over all, tho if you want a newer monster jam game thats very good, get steel titans 2 i dont like how when doing skills they yank you into them, even if your not trying to do them they also made my boi Dragonoid ugly while in steel titans dragonoid looks amazing
A truly indifferent game! Graphics look both detailed and astonishing, without sacrificing too much game performance. The monster truck selection is diverse, whilst containing some paint schemes, or trucks from past Monster Jam events (Ex: Jurassic Attack's 2007 scheme) Game mechanics are easy to understand, while the gameplay itself is also easy to understand. Especially with driving assists that can be turned on...
