A globe-trotting BattleTanx sequel with more locales, bigger weapons and an even flashier multiplayer. The campaign stays very linear and the AI is still dim, but the explosive thrills are intact, the visuals have real bite now and the vehicle variety keeps the fun rolling.

BattleTanx - Global Assault (N64) price, value & rarity
Is BattleTanx - Global Assault still worth playing in 2026?
BattleTanx - Global Assault enriches 3DO's tank combat concept by extending it to a worldwide campaign, with new armored types and weapons. The progression across different countries brings more variety than the first installment, and the multiplayer stays the strong point, ideal for group chaos. The handling and presentation remain perfectible against the machine's standards. For fans of retro vehicular action and convivial tank battles on N64, this more fleshed-out sequel is the best choice of the series.
