The graphics of the game are generally described as cute and colorful, featuring a distinct anime style that appeals to many players. However, some reviewers note that the visuals can feel dated, reminiscent of early 2000s titles, with instances of blurry textures and reused assets from other games. Overall, while the graphics are enjoyable, they may not meet the expectations of players seeking high-definition visuals.
- “Bellatia seems to be a solid grindfest: neat anime graphics, weapons with different elemental damage, visualized loot (weapons + armor), redoing bosses over and over again, time trials, achievements, crafting, collecting different characters, and some 3D jump-n-run stuff.”
- “The anime style is cute, even though the graphics are a bit dated.”
- “I liked the graphics, very colorful and anime-like, but it kind of reminds me of the graphics you'd see in old PS2 or MMO games from the early 2000s, maybe something like Flyff or the PS2's Secret of Mana.”
- “Besides, there are some other flaws, like problems with the inventory in savegames, reused graphic assets, and privacy matters.”
- “The game is using graphic assets from an MMO called 'Iris Online', so be careful if you get annoyed by reused assets and have played that game.”
- “I found that some of the graphics were not HD and looked quite blurry at times.”
