Critic Reviews for Beast of Reincarnation
Beast of Reincarnation is a solid and enjoyable ARPG, but it falls short of being exceptional. Its combat, movement, and art direction give the game a solid foundation, but predictable storytelling, repetitive audio structure, and limited combat challenges prevent the game from standing out.
Mixing close-range action freneticism with a gorgeous, meditative atmosphere, Beast of Reincarnation is fun, admirable, gorgeous and flawed.
Game Freak borrows liberally from the genre's biggest hits. And while its messy and muddled, it's salvaged by exhilarating combat and traversal, and a surprising amount of soul.
Beast of Reincarnation is an action RPG that has some great ideas blossoming here and there, but they can be hard to spot among the weeds.
The final act of Beast of Reincarnation, with its telegraphed revelations and color-by-numbers moments, left me feeling… nothing.
Beast of Reincarnation is an ambitious game that often overextends itself.
Beast of Reincarnation feels like the result of Game Freak’s designers having something to say (or at least wishing they did), but constantly struggling to find the right words. It eventually becomes a very fun action RPG to play, but stumbles many, many times on the path of getting there.
