Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Even if you already know the plot inside and out, the cinematic flair and high quality VFX make the story mode genuinely fun to play through and far from being a chore.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Even being only up to the Mugen Train arc, there's a wide breadth of content and a solid 18 hours of gameplay if you want to S-rank most of the campaign missions and play a few CPU matches.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Inside the Fight, the graphics look great, the animated cutscenes look amazing too and it makes you feel like you are part of the anime.

Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
The Combat System is great.
46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
The story mode alone if you don't like pvp would be a good reason to get it and if your a demon slayer fan then that's a even more reason to get this game.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The story mode is beautiful and relives the events from Season 1 of the anime all the way to the Movie Mugen Train with amazing visuals, Amazing open world environments, the Quick time events are perfect and the soundtrack also makes it even better.
