Inside the two-hour refund window, 69 percent of the 2,354 reviews written there were positive, against 86 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (boost, cosmetic); the score docks it lightly for that.

What drives the score
Grades: S best, D weakest
S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work
What players say
it is fun but the AI learning isn't when it learns the infinite combo hitting your back, I mean like 30 seconds of being spammed and unable to vanish because it stops the combo before it does a vanish. Other than that happening randomly the AI is fun and will usually play like the show would giving cool moments and fun gameplay. Worth my money but seriously coulda included the new dlc in the already deluxe edition.
