If you enjoy playing Volta-X online in the main mode, you're likely to enjoy the Metaverse update. It's offline for you to play when you want and practice with the various Voltas.

Volta-X has its enjoyable moments and provides a decent strategy experience with a fair level of difficulty. Since I like to take my Nintendo Switch with me when I head out, I do wish the offline mode had more content but nothing’s stopping me from playing this when I am home.
