NoobFeed editor writes - Visions of Mana does a brilliant job of rebooting the classic series for the modern age. Just enough nostalgia, innovating on previous systems with real-time battle mechanics to appeal to those who find turn-based systems a tad too dull. With a story full of sacrifice and duty, it provides an interesting backdrop to the action. While the pacing is a tad off at times, along with the voice acting being a little contentious, this game shines in its combat, customization, and presentation.
MonsterVine: "Visions of Mana offers a modern action RPG experience with stunning visuals and smooth combat, but its predictable story and lack of innovation hold it back in a crowded year of exceptional RPGs."
Visions of Mana is an excellent reintroduction to the long running franchise, bringing it back to what fans fell in love with.
After almost two decades with no new console game except rereleases, the Mana series has a new chance with Visions of Mana. Born from a partnership between Squre Enix and NetEase’s subsidiary Studio Ouka, the game is a great way to showcase what the lighthearted action RPG franchise has to offer.
Too bad the dev is supposedly getting closed. It was recieved well critically.
