The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the frequency and intrusiveness of ads, particularly those that play automatically after matches.

The reviews indicate a strong desire for a story mode in the game, with many players expressing that the current lack of narrative and character development detracts from the overall experience.

- “Would be awesome if there was a single player campaign story mode in a sprawling open world environment.”
- “The amount of characters to choose from are amazing along with the stories where they came from are great to read. I've read all of them; you just had to create an amazing storyline.”
