Katana Zero Review Roundup

Katana Zero is a 2D style side-scrolling action platformer game which has proven to be a great title just like Hotline Miami. Katana Zero is somewhat similar to Hotline Miami, another side-scrolling platformer game developed by Askiisoft and published by Developer Digital. Katana Zero critics are quite good enough to say that platformer games still have life in them. Let's get down to Katana Zero review round and see what are the critics saying.

IGN

Score- 8.7

Katana Zero’s time-bending samurai action is the star of the show here, but its unique presentation and entertaining dialogue go a long way in supporting a plot that suffers from feeling like it’s saving its best ideas for a sequel. As action games go, Katana Zero’s shorter length makes it a quick fix, and I’ll no doubt suffer withdrawal while I wait for the next hit.

GameSpot

Score- 8.0

The uncertain future of the story that Katana Zero so brilliantly sets up is concerning, but that shouldn't deter you from diving into this compelling introductory chapter. Its combat provides an exciting challenge that tests both strategy and reflex, while also giving you clever abilities to make it as stylish as possible. The narrative contextualization of both your abilities and role within Katana Zero's world is expertly written, with a clever dialogue system letting you inject personality into character interactions. Katana Zero is bloody and brutal, but it's also a heartfelt tale that you shouldn't overlook lightly.

Score- 7.75

Katana Zero can be satisfying and stylish action/puzzle hybrid, but the effect diminishes the longer you play.

Polygon

Katana Zero is a game about this cycle, weaving the notion that “mastery that comes from defeat” into a gory tale of revenge and redemption.
