Guilty Gear Strive continues the long-running series' love of amazingly bizarre character designs, fantastic fighting action, and gorgeous visuals with superb results.
Guilty Gear -Strive- isn’t the most generous fighting game available when it comes to content, but its wonderfully energetic combat makes up for it. Its characters are larger than life, each bringing something new to the table that’s worth exploring before settling on perhaps one or two to truly master. And while it’s the easiest Guilty Gear game to simply pick up and play, there’s a hell of a lot of depth to be discovered by those who wish to compete at a high level.
Guilty Gear -Strive- is actually an incredible game, the fighting is fast, flashy, and extremely responsive.
GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE- is a great fighting game and a great sequel to an old franchise which successfully caters to both genre veterans and newcomers. It is a bit on the expensive side, but the gameplay, art, and music all justify it.
Guilty Gear -Strive- is a superb entry in the 2D Fighter genre, and has the looks, sounds, and stability to back the claim. While smaller compared to other titles, the initial roster of fifteen fighters feels distinct, and most picks have a fitting theme to complement their personality and playstyle. The Story Mode does a great job showcasing who these characters are, while providing a good narrative to boot - and while the act of getting matched with other players can be a pain, the online play experience is incredibly solid. Let's rock!
Strive's visual revamp is dazzling, and there's also flowing gameplay. It's story, on the other hand, is full of epic moments.

Guilty Gear -Strive- has the opportunity to establish itself as one of the best fighting games today. Its systems are dynamic and offensive-oriented, which results in spectacular and aggressive fights that exploit technical fundamentals in battle. At the same time, it invites new players with simple and easy to understand commands, however, it fails to captivate them in the long run. Guilty Gear -Strive- shy away from perfection as there is unbalance and feels incomplete.

Guilty Gear Strive continues the series' legacy as a flashy fighter with loads of depth, but it also does its best to shed the idea that it's inaccessible. The tweaks and new mechanics make for a fighter that's still a blast to play, and the upgraded presentation, along with the fast load times for the PS5 iteration, make it eye-catching. Provided you don't mind the online lobby system, Strive is an excellent fighting game. Just make sure to keep it patched if you want a decent offline experience.
Guilty Gear Strive shows that you don't need to add many new elements to your game to create an enjoyable experience, but you can provide the best experience by improving old mechanisms and few new ones.

20+ years after the first ever Guilty Gear game, and the series moves closer and closer to perfection with this latest release. Every round of the game, no matter if you lose or win, is a great, satisfying experience that offers almost anything you would want from a fighting game.

Arc System Works are masters of the genre, and Guilty Gear Strive is a showcase of that mastery. It might not be the most comprehensive fighting game out there, and I do think the developers have made a mistake in giving up on drawing new players into the franchise with a story mode that assumes you’ve been playing Guilty Gear for years. However, those quibbles melt away the instant you get into the action itself. There’s no other word to describe it: it’s sublime.
Guilty Gear Strive is definitely the most ambitious installment of the series. It could be an ideal gateway for new players to enjoy this crazy mix a hardcore fights, anime and heavy metal.

Guilty Gear -Strive- sets a new gold standard for fighting games. Everything from the netcode to the presentation has been polished to a shiny sheen, and its incredibly high skill ceiling will keep players coming back for years to come.
Guilty Gear Strvie is quite fun and attractive by presenting a fast and exciting gameplay along with upgrading old mechanisms and introducing new mechanisms. On the other hand, the game's art design makes it one of the best examples in the industry. Although the story requires knowledge of previous narratives in the series, which makes it more difficult for new users to understand, but it will satisfy many old fans. Believe it or not, some minor problems can be mentioned for this game, but the creators have shown so much skill in their work that our only option is to offer you to play it.

Spectacular fighting that is hugely hospitable both for the series veterans and for the Guilty Gear newcomers as well.

A gorgeous and satisfying fighter with a net code that makes intercontinental matches possible. Dripping with style, with more characters and modes, it wouldn't be a stretch to call it revolutionary.
