The game's competitive nature and progression systems, which include microtransactions for upgrades and fighters, carry risks of competitive toxicity, social comparison, and potential pay-to-win dynamics. While there is no stranger chat, the online environment can still expose players to intense competition. The game's WWII setting includes a high level of violence.
