The gameplay of Final Knight is a dynamic blend of various genres, combining elements from classic beat-'em-ups, roguelites, and MMOs into a side-scrolling action RPG. While the presentation may not be cutting-edge, it effectively complements the engaging mechanics and party-based combat system, which has evolved significantly during early access. However, some players note that the fast-paced boss attacks can hinder tactical gameplay.
- “Final Knight, developed by 2OClockSoft and published by Gravity, is a side-scrolling action RPG that blends the kinetic energy of classic beat-'em-ups with modern roguelite mechanics and a party-based combat system.”
- “This game is definitely a crazy mess of so many different mechanics and ideas, of the Mystara D&D beat 'em ups, of Dragon's Crown, of Monster Hunter, of roguelites, MMOs, all shoved into one passion project that has changed so much over the years and yet retained its identity.”
- “Over the course of early access, this dev has added so many layers of depth; the game nearly resembles a single-player MMORPG. You control all party members if you wish, and the mechanics, classes, and skills are clearly inspired by such.”

The stability of the game has been heavily criticized, particularly regarding co-op play, which is plagued by bugs and limitations that diminish the experience for the second player. Additionally, players have reported game freezes when using a controller, further highlighting significant stability issues.
- “Co-op play is horrible and buggy; I can't level up the second player. The developers advised that it will become an afterthought, and the second player will just be a companion. Awful decision, in my opinion; they might as well remove co-op entirely.”
- “Using a controller freezes the game on the starting screen.”
