Astral Chain

Astral Chain is every bit as awesome as it looks in motion, which is to say it's downright incredible.

Nintendo Switch exclusive Astral Chain elevates the stylish action genre with an inventive, gratifying combat system and an unrelenting sense of style.

Sprawling, varied and constantly stylish, Astral Chain is a very different breed of action game that ranks with Platinum's best.

Astral Chain is the best new Nintendo franchise since Splatoon

Astral Chain is fun from start to finish, and gives the player plenty to chew on in terms of side missions and post-game content

If only more big-league developers dared to be this bonkers, the industry would be that much more untamed.

A one of a kind combat experience and Platinum’s most well-rounded adventure to date. A killer combo in every sense of the term.

This is absolutely a worthy successor to Nier Automata – and like that game, Astral Chain is definitely a contender for one of my favourite games of the year.

Whatever criticism you can throw at Astral Chain, you can't say it isn't unique. In the first few hours, I was all over the place when it came to an assessment, as it can take some time to really turn it up. But when it does it just clicks, and I don't want to stop playing it.

What I wanted is there, and it’s good. There’s just so much more, and I love it all.
