GamingUnion.net: "In an industry where people are becoming more and more afraid of taking risks, it's pleasing to see that there are those out there who still want to go against the grain. And that's exactly what Ignition has done with its latest game, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron. They could have just created a stereotypical action adventure game, but no, they wanted to do something different. It's very admirable, but the result is a game that has some definite highs, but also a fair few lows. Don't let this deter though, as there is more to El Shaddai than meets the eye."
A classic action game makes its triumphant return on the Nintendo Switch
El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is an action game by Ignition Tokyo and UTV Ignition Games for PS3 and Xbox 360, later released on Switch.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Presenting El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron to a new audience and preserving it for future generations is a great thing, especially considering its cult status. Whether that audience will enjoy it is another matter entirely. Due to its cryptic storytelling, repetitive combat, and clumsy platforming, it doesn't quite escape the orbit of mediocrity. Still, there's a lot to admire, including exciting boss battles, impressive production design, and powerful music. If nothing else, it's an ambitious game with a singular vision. And that's something to celebrate."
Its a pretty cool game. i have the 360 version but Id buy the switch to play on the go.
This game looks really fun from what I've seen. Fair review all in all.
I'm gonna have to get this game when the price goes down and the gaming avalanche settles.
good game with unusual but attractive visual style 8,5/10
