The Chosen Warriors successfully captures the essence of classic arcade brawlers, offering straightforward, skill-based combat that rewards mastery and precision.
The game features a diverse roster of twelve unique characters, each with distinct strengths and weaknesses, encouraging players to experiment with different playstyles.
Local cooperative play enhances the experience, allowing players to enjoy the nostalgic thrill of teamwork and strategy while battling through challenging levels.

The game suffers from technical issues, including clunky controls, poor hit detection, and a lack of basic features like audio controls, which detracts from the overall experience.
Visuals are simplistic and repetitive, with environments lacking variety and character animations that feel stiff, making the game appear underdeveloped.
The absence of a progression system or health recovery can make the game feel punishing and frustrating, especially for newcomers to the genre.

The gameplay is characterized by skill-based combat that emphasizes player reflexes and mechanics, appealing primarily to seasoned fans of retro-style challenges. While it features tight controls and chaotic co-op elements reminiscent of classic side-scrolling games, it lacks modern polish and accessibility, leading to mixed experiences; some players find it engaging, while others criticize it as slow and cumbersome. Overall, the game offers a nostalgic combat experience but may frustrate those seeking a more refined or forgiving gameplay style.
- “At its core, the game is a tribute to straightforward, skill-based combat, where every punch, kick, and sword swing relies entirely on the player’s reflexes and understanding of the mechanics.”
- “Attacks, special moves, and dodges form the foundation of the gameplay, while spacing and crowd control become essential as the number of enemies increases.”
- “It captures the essence of classic side-scrolling combat—tight mechanics, skill-based gameplay, and co-op chaos—but lacks the refinement and polish of modern interpretations.”
- “The game does not offer much in the way of accessibility or adjustable mechanics, making it a title that caters more to seasoned fans of retro-style challenges than to casual players seeking something forgiving or story-driven.”
- “This game exists only to annoy you, with gameplay so horrible, it boggles my mind that someone decided to release it to the world, let alone sell it.”
- “Gameplay is both slow and cumbersome, even when game speed is increased to maximum.”

The graphics feature a low-poly art style with basic textures and modest detail, which some find charming despite their functional nature. While there are decent character designs and well-crafted cut-scenes, the overall visual experience is considered lacking, especially in comparison to classic arcade beat-em-ups. Additionally, the graphics settings appear to have minimal impact on visual quality, resembling a PS2 sidescroller even at the highest settings.

- “It adopts a low-poly art style with modest detail and basic textures that feel more functional than stylish.”

- “The graphics are something of a PS2 sidescroller, even at the ultra setting.”
