In just a single month, Switch's latest free-to-play shooter Warface has reached one million registered players on the platform.
The game's developer, Allods Team, has shared some key stats to show off just how much success it's been having. Take a look:
- Players have completed 495,387 PvP matches
- Total playtime for Warface on Switch is over 83 000 days
- The most popular modes on Switch are PvE missions (1,285,309 played) and co-op Special Operations (148,507 completed)
Warface surprise-launched on Switch back in February and boasts "full content and feature parity with Xbox One and PS4 versions". When we checked it out for review, we thought the game was a perfectly competent addition to Switch's ever-growing list of shooters:
Nintendo Switch is really racking up a decent selection of shooters. Warface isn’t particularly pretty, and its approach to content access means you’ll likely spend most of your time playing with rented items and weapons, but it’s still brought solid asymmetrical online FPS action to Switch in a way no other shooter has managed thus far.

I forgot about the game, I'm happy people are enjoying it though. We needed a decent shooter.
No where near as good as Fortnite is, but then again, nothing is really. It feels a void of much needed fun shooters, before was only Splatoon and Fortnite.
It's by far better than Fortnite.
I have played Warface alot on Xbox One X, but i must say the Switch port is very good as i played a few 5 player co-op missions in that version too.
I think it is quite fun to play the PVE Missions with friends!
I don't know if PVP online against random players requires you to invest real money but my frist 2-3 games were also diverting fun.
Warface reminds me of my Counter Strike 1.6 times. I missed a game like this on Nintendo Switch.
It's welcome, it's for free... what could go wrong?
If the game is alive and kicking, I might just try Warface out.
That's pretty good!
I downloaded it but haven't tried it yet.
@MsJubilee I doubt it's alive anymore. It's a pay2win game so most of us have quit it.
@mesome713 It's still well populated. I haven't spent a penny and win more often than I lose. I think this is a good testing ground for these games. Would be surprised if one of the big ones didn't come to seeing these numbers!
I play this game alot, love it. Hope to see more great FPS on the switch.
Amazing game. Totally FREE TO PLAY. Optional weapons, skins etc.
Hours of hours of pure shooting gaming pve/pvp/competitive matches. Tons of unlocks. The game just never bores you.
I haven't bought anything yet (but I will soon, just to show my appreciation to the devs ) and I can get top3 with ease. Very often 1st. Not boasting, just letting everyone know that you don't need to spend even 1 pence and have months of fun.
A free game that doesn't fore you to buy anything?! RARITY at it's finest/.
*every single person who says it pay2win... is just bad at it and look for a scapegoat...
I've been playing shooters for more than two decades, (cs competitively) and when I say it's totally free and you can rap3 everyone with tons of free stuff you have... or earn just playing the game, trust me... kids nowadays want everything easy so no wonder the blame a great game for their lack of skills...
I also love rental option about which people moan so much... you get to use different thing and if you want to you can always earn in-game money and buy it permanently.
I also like the idea that really superb/powerful weapons are only rental for a day for real money.
Fun and addicting f2p game, I’m glad to see it develop a following on Switch. Servers can be wonky but are always active in my experience. In-game rewards are abundant and allowed me to meaningfully improve my competitiveness and kit with permanent weapon and armor upgrades. I wouldn’t say it’s necessarily pay to win, more like “pay to re-skin”.
Cracking game just hit boxes can be a nightmare at times, I play as a sniper in co op missions at gunnery specialist level and theres a good few times I have the enemy in the crosshairs and hit after hit after hit after hit he still there but I am not as he has hit me and am out, this is extremely annoying, dont know if this is a glitch on these missions or its across the board
Anyone know??? Anyone had these issues???
Who you get on your team can be quite fun and a nightmare at the same time lol
Folk just running out the helicopter into the middle of a courtyard is just asking for trouble I normally try to clear areas like that of snipers so when the gunners go in they dont get picked off
Then you get a team where they all know the roles know when to take cover and when to leave flowing through the passageways effortlessly, a great feeling when you have a great crew,
Would love a ghost recon on Switch
Dè tha dol Ubi
PLEASE PLEASE FIX THE HIT BOXES!!!
@MsJubilee
Yup, still alive and kicking. Multiplayer is always packed.
Evil EA wakes up
I deleted this as every time I tried to play it wouldn’t find a server. A problem that I believe a lot of people were experiencing. Got fed up trying so moved on.
If that’s changed I may revisit.
I’m surprised there has been no attempt for a call of duty, even a general port from the past for some kind of presence.
Amazing game and the free rewards come at such a pace that you never need to spend money if you don’t want to. Really the best thing to buy are the cosmetic skins! Which have no affect on gameplay.
Great game and couldn’t be happier with it.
@mesome713 It's very double. PVP works fine without paying (you rnk up slower and all that, but you unlock a lot, can buy decent equipment with in-game currency (it sucks you have to repair it as well, with in-game currency, so you barely make any without buying "boosters" with real money )... I'm just not that good at it. I AM however good at PVE missions, but those spec-op missions, honestly... Who made them that long, that unforgiving, and made it so that continues cost REAL money? All while even victory in PVE barely gives you any experience or anything, let alone dying. The amount of times I died by suddenly being overwhelmed by countless terribly over-powered shield bearing enemies, or jumping exploding robot spiders that just swarm your team, or other really BAD game design, while having like 150 kills already in 1 mission and having a team of... Well, bad players, that barely scored 10 kills,... And then getting an insanely low amount of experience, the same as all the others, because we lost... It made me stop playing what could have been a really enjoyable mode.
@Menardi Ehhh. It's not really COD styled. It's more like Battlefield.
I totally forgot about this game. I’ll download it soon and check it out.
Never heard of it
@RAMYERSELL Same here! Tried sniping across a ravine in the bridge map and nothing. Nailing perfect head shots and it felt like some of the cover I was using was clipping even though the shot was impacting the target. Makes it very frustrating. For a free shooter it isn’t bad at all.
@Jawessome
Yeah had that, like the foliage was protecting his head but not the same for me, the times I have seen the red light, spun round fired of 3 or 4 rounds right into the light nothing and 1 fire back and am dead, not a happy chappy lol
As you said though no bad for a free shooter,
I really do like it, I have been crying out for a game like this for ages, would love a ghost recon, any game where your shooting modern (ish) weapons, just went bact to saints row the 3rd, they just updated it with motion controls, be on a few killing sprees lol
@KoopaTheQuick
FOMTL
Some people online are turning it into bad experience. Fix those respawning points please.
