Yo pilots! Suit up and get your Mobile Suits ready, we’re diving into Gundam Breaker 4, the game that lets you create and customize your own Gunpla for explosive combat! So, does this new opus live up to expectations? Hold on to your hats!
Story: A light script, but one that does the job
Let’s face it, Gundam Breaker 4 ‘s story isn’t its strong point. You play as a high-school student competing in a Gunpla tournament… and that’s about it! The scenario is rather clichéd and a pretext for one fight after another. But fortunately, the humor and endearing characters make up for it. And let’s face it, we’re not really here for the story, are we?
Gameplay: pure fun!
The heart of the game is the gameplay, and Gundam Breaker 4 delivers in spades! The combat system is dynamic and responsive, with aerial combos, special attacks and explosions galore. It’s a real pleasure to dismember your opponents and collect their parts to upgrade your own Gunpla. Customization is ultra advanced, with thousands of parts to combine to create the Mobile Suit of your dreams. In short, it’s a real paradise for Gunpla fans!
Lifespan: Content galore!
Between the story mode, side missions, online multiplayer and Gunpla customization, there’s plenty to keep you busy for dozens of hours. The game also features a “New Game” mode that lets you start the adventure all over again with your own Gunpla and skills. In short, the lifespan is excellent!
Music and graphics: a successful anime style
Visually, Gundam Breaker 4 is very faithful to the spirit of the anime series. The Mobile Suits are beautifully modeled, and animations are fluid and dynamic. Visual effects during battles are impressive, with explosions and sparks everywhere. The soundtrack is equally impressive, with lively music that perfectly matches the action.
Verdict: A must-have for Gundam fans!
Gundam Breaker 4 is an excellent action game that will delight fans of the Gundam saga and mecha games alike. The gameplay is fun and addictive, customization is ultra-complete and the lifespan is substantial. The only regret is that the storyline is a little light.
