replayability2 positive mentions
optimization9 negative mentions
  • The game features satisfying large-scale destructible environments with well-designed monsters that feel massive and impactful.
  • Kaiju combat is fun and has potential with diverse abilities, and playing as both monsters and humans adds variety.
  • The developers are active, responsive to community feedback, and continuously patching and improving the game.
  • The game suffers from poor optimization and performance issues, including low and inconsistent FPS even on mid-to-high-end PCs.
  • Human gameplay, especially gunplay and vehicle controls, feels clunky and underdeveloped compared to the monster combat.
  • The slow movement and animation speed of the kaiju reduce the excitement and fluidity of combat, alongside various bugs and jank affecting overall polish.

  • optimization

    32 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    13% positive mentions, 59% neutral mentions, 28% negative mentions

    The game's optimization is mixed, with many users reporting significant performance issues such as lag, crashes, and stuttering, especially during complex scenes, while others experience smooth gameplay without adjustments. Improvements have been noted in recent patches, but overall optimization remains a major concern, particularly for lower-end PCs. Most agree that as the game is in early access, further optimization work is expected and necessary to realize its full potential.

    • “The latest patches have vastly improved performance and animation issues.”
    • “The game in early alpha needed to be thrown on lowest settings possible to be playable enough but when I launched this early access build I went straight into gameplay with no settings adjustments and had stellar performance.”
    • “Today's patch seems to have improved performance somewhat, which is promising.”
    • “The game performance is horrible and it constantly crashes in multiplayer matches.”
    • “The optimization is an absolute dumpster fire.”
    • “Terrible FPS/performance.”

  • gameplay

    23 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    17% positive mentions, 66% neutral mentions, 17% negative mentions

    The gameplay shows promising potential with a high skill ceiling and enjoyable beast combat, especially in multiplayer-focused modes, though it currently favors beasts heavily over human characters. While some bugs, balance issues, and clunkiness exist, particularly with human gameplay, the core mechanics are fun and customizable, with expected early access kinks that need polishing. Overall, the gameplay offers an enjoyable experience that should improve significantly with further development and updates.

    • “There's a surprisingly large number of customizable options to suit your personal gameplay.”
    • “Everything from the kaiju fighting gameplay to the PvP has an incredibly high skill ceiling.”
    • “Some of the missions are clever, like leading scientists to scan beasts and then getting them to safety, which is a nice take on capture the flag type mechanics; running as buildings crumble around you in human form is a thrill.”
    • “However, currently the gameplay heavily favors using beasts.”
    • “The gameplay is clunky, feels awful, and just has almost no redeemable qualities whatsoever.”
    • “Human gameplay sucks like really sucks.”

  • story

    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    17% positive mentions, 66% neutral mentions, 17% negative mentions

    The story mode offers some enjoyable kaiju destruction and creative mission ideas but is generally seen as repetitive, buggy, and a frustrating time sink that mainly serves as a tutorial for multiplayer. Players appreciate the concept and setting but feel the narrative and mission design lack polish and meaningful engagement, with some missions being nearly unbeatable. Overall, while the story adds value for non-multiplayer fans, it feels underdeveloped and detracts from the game's potential.

    • “The 3rd mission is almost unbeatable. I'm having a rough time completing it, but I will say that the destruction of the city is top notch. The game has unbelievable potential to be one of the coolest monster fighting games in a long time.”
    • “Some of the missions are clever, like leading scientists to scan beasts and then getting them to safety. It's a nice take on capture the flag type mechanics, and running as buildings crumble around you in human form is a thrill.”
    • “I also really like that there is a story mode included, as someone who doesn't play a lot of competitive multiplayer games.”
    • “Story missions are boring and the only fun human level is so bugged it's unplayable. I have gold on every level within 7 attempts, meanwhile this one mission I'm stuck on silver at 34 (update over 50) attempts and only 4 (7) completions because of how bad the level is.”
    • “Drop the story, you don't have the budget to do it well.”
    • “The story mode feels like a time sink to get you past the refund window with repeated missions doing the same thing.”

  • graphics

    17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    18% positive mentions, 64% neutral mentions, 18% negative mentions

    The graphics are generally considered mediocre, resembling a polished but early-stage title with issues like high GPU demands, graphical bugs, and limited customization options for visual effects. Performance problems are common even on high-end setups, forcing players to choose between poor visuals or low, unplayable framerates. Despite these drawbacks, some players appreciate the blend of nostalgic and modern visuals.

    • “I personally like the graphics; it's sitting in the perfect spot between nostalgic and modern.”
    • “The game has some okay graphics and does suffer from some repetitiveness in certain areas but is a fun game nonetheless.”
    • “Most people don't realize realistic graphics and destruction physics can drive up GPU usage very fast.”
    • “There are options to turn down a lot of graphics but there's no way to reduce building detail or the massive amounts of smoke produced from most destroyed objects as far as I can tell.”
    • “What's on offer feels like a Roblox game cranked up to maximum graphics settings, released far too early, and priced like a finished product.”
    • “I have to choose between a playable framerate with blurry, unplayable visuals, or okay visuals with an unplayable framerate.”

  • stability

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Users report significant stability issues, including frequent freezes and bugs that negatively impact gameplay and enjoyment. While some acknowledge the game's design and potential, optimization and bug fixes are urgently needed to improve performance and player experience.

    • “We need more players as well as fix for the damn freezes.”
    • “Random freezes kill the fun.”
    • “This game is a buggy mess, so much so that it actively hinders the experience of the player to a degree that makes it not fun.”

  • replayability

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Replayability is promising, but current matchmaking issues cause long wait times that hinder the overall experience. Once these are resolved, the game could be more enjoyable and replayable.

  • grinding

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The grinding aspect is considered tedious, as it involves defeating small monster units individually and is only effective for gaining minor health benefits.

  • character development

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users appreciate the character designs, highlighting them as a positive aspect of the game's character development.

  • music

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 100% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The music is decent overall, but its dynamic fading based on proximity to beasts can be somewhat irritating for some players.

  • atmosphere

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The atmosphere is highly immersive and intense, with detailed environmental effects like rubble and debris enhancing the sense of danger. These elements create a terrifying and memorable experience, especially during moments of sudden kaiju encounters.

    • “Driving through the city with rubble everywhere and thick debris blocking my view was really cool. A lot of games skip out on the atmospheric effects, and they can make a huge difference. It actually made it pretty terrifying to come up on a building in the tank as it toppled down to reveal the kaiju walking straight at me.”

  • emotional

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users find the game's emotional aspect nostalgic and comforting, evoking fond memories of playing kaiju games on other systems and creating a strong sense of familiarity and enjoyment.
