King Arthur: Knight's Tale is a strategy RPG that gets the fantasy of playing as a heavily armored knight exactly right, but it would've been a better game if it didn't pad itself out with so many repetitive battles.

A game that looks promising but fails to deliver on its promises. You may give it a chance if necessary improvements are made in the future, but I suggest you to wait a bit more if you don't want to be disappointed.

Those with the patience to do so may find Mordred’s journey to be a fulfilling one.

After being repeated dozens of times in different ways, do you need to yet another King Arthur tale? Well, the game brings its dark view of this classic tale and makes of it a solid base for building its twisted world. The game is aimed primarily at fans of strategy games, its battles do pose a reasonable challenge, and there is a bit of exploration and a lot of micro-management. Repetition is an issue though, and storytelling isn't as satisfying as we would've liked. We can say it's a really good game but not everyone will like it.

Regardless of your King Arthur fandom, Knights Tale is a feast with meaty tactics, a sumptuous story, and luscious visuals, all fit for a king.

King Arthur: Knight's Tale succeeds in achieving the goals that it sets for itself but I rarely felt it go above and beyond the standards that I have become accustomed to over years of tactical game experience.

King Arthur: Knight's Tale is no game to be taken lightly: it requires dedication, concentration, and a desire to understand and exploit the numerous mechanics it offers us. In return, however, it guarantees us the memorable experience of a mythological Middle Ages in which we can spend a huge number of hours, testing our tactical skills and our temper as kings. A title that should not be missing from the library of fans of the genre.

King Arthur: Knight’s Tale is not a badly made game; it’s just boring, and that might be worse.

King Arthur: Knight’s Tale is a high-quality tactical RPG, mechanically, but that’s overshadowed by an dismal narrative, setting and characterisation. At no point does anything in this game suggest that the developers had the slightest interest in doing the Arthurian legends justice (or even respect). This is the end result of the entire industry being motivated around content rather than artistic integrity. King Arthur: Knight’s Tale sure has a lot of best-practice dark fantasy, as the developers chase after all the financial success that other dark fantasy content products have received. If only anyone who worked at the development studio actually picked up Le Morte d’Arthur and learned something about what they were “adapting” to video game form first. They may have realised what a mistake they were making with this game then.

King Arthur: Knight's Tale is a good tactical RPG with plenty of depth in its combat and base management system, as well as a rich story based on Arthurian Legends. If you're a fan of the genre and King Arthur's stories, you'll get a lot of fun out of the huge amount of content in this great title.

King Arthur: Knight's Tale is a great turn-based combat RPG game, with simple exploration of the scenarios but that gives rewards for doing so and uses them as part of the strategy in the missions so that the player can succeed. It's a great title that's highly recommended for all lovers of the genre and that gives us a very interesting story that makes us want to keep moving forward and overcoming the challenges to discover more little by little until we reach its end.
