What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The offensive mechanics and mixups in this game are downright brutal, but in exchange you gain an incredibly good defensive toolkit.
New: Team French Caliburst was contracted to implement rollback netcode, and it's really good.
That aside, the game has rollback, an active and cool community, the best lobby system of all time and a roster of really cool characters.
Story is explained very well with everyone having one ending but usually more, and it's polished, and explains the unexplained in ggx2 events.
The soundtrack—guitar-heavy and intense—remains one of the most recognizable in the genre.
Additionally, the online multiplayer is a major draw, featuring ranked and casual matches that allow players to test their skills against a global community.
