What critics say

Push Square (9/10) praises accessible gameplay hiding real depth and a PS5 version that is “practically flawless”, but notes the PC port hurts crossplay at launch and that offline content is a notch below Street Fighter 6. Destructoid (9/10) likes the accessibility, Episode mode and variety of modes, but points to balancing issues and online lag and desync.
