Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
76 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Infinite’s gameplay often feels like a high-speed conversation, with each player constantly adjusting positioning, tagging strategically, and leveraging stone abilities to turn defensive disadvantages into explosive comebacks.
Servers and matchmaking
Players who bring up Servers and matchmaking mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It has decent netcode, but disconnects make you wait 2-3 minutes staring at a frozen screen, and then treat the game as though it didn't happen.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But if you are at all interested in a tag fighter and have some friends to play with, this comes highly recommended when it does go on sale.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
While I imagine this game being fun in multiplayer, at 58 GB it's hard to justify leaving this game installed or downloading it for casual play.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Even if its presentation was heavily criticized at launch, the underlying combat system stands as one of the most dynamic and complex in modern fighting games.
