Yo people of Neogaf. Got a chance to check this game out today. Here's some info and impressions:
- PS5 Install size is 4.56 GB as of version 1.000.002
- PR mentioned it's 4K 60FPS. No word on native or dynamic. Needs confirmation. I noticed no drops of frames during gameplay in 4K mode.
- No in game HDR settings.
- In fact the settings are pretty barren. The only settings you can adjust are for audio. that's it
- There are 20 characters. Apparently 2 more on the way.
- 20 stages to play on
- No voice acting in this. Only the announcer speaks. Disappointing
- No supers or anything. You have basic attacks (X Button), heavy attacks (Circle Button), Special attacks (Square), Jump (Traingle), Block (R2), air dodge (R2 in air), and grab (R2 + X), also L1 does taunts
- The characters all feel floaty. I haven't played smash in years but each character was either light, medium or heavy. None of that here.
- each character does have their own unique moves and attacks. But I didn't really gel with any except Korra. But that's me.
- Arcade mode is pretty barren, You fight a couple fights and it ends. No endings, or cutscenes. Nothing. You get rewards such as gallery items and unlockable stuff for that character you beat the arcade with.
- AI is pretty cheap most of the time. They will dodge perfectly most of the time and counter.
- There is an online mode where you can choose a server and host private lobbies to play with friends and invite them.
- Lastly you can play local matches which can be either stock lives or timed.
- you also have a sports mode which includes some sports balls that you can use in fights.
That's pretty much it really. Other than nostalgia for these childhood characters, not sure if its worth the 66.99$ asking price in Canada. It's fun in doses as I did enjoy some matches with a friend. But after an hour I stopped. Decent party game, but not worth that price. Maybe half price would be better.
IDK this is a hard one and is very subjective. let me know what you guys think.
