Taking the series signature musou combat to a new level, the combination of satisfying overall combat and large-scale battlefield chaos help this to shine
While it absolutely offers up a very deliberately-paced experience that’s calm and has wholesome appeal, the technical issues and some blandness make it tough to get excited about on Switch
Absolutely ridiculous, weird, and also fully in its own lane for delivering a pretty unique mix of platforming and nutty action… but also undeniably a bit janky
