Slave Zero X Reviews
In the end, though, the repetitiveness makes it difficult to fully recommend Slave Zero X, especially at its retail asking price of $24.99. Aside from just enjoying the story, replay value is restricted to high-score hunters (who themselves will have to deal with an arguably unpredictable grading system), and anyone not completely smitten with the presentation will find themselves looking for an excuse to persevere, even with its relatively short campaign. For the right player, Slave Zero X will seem like a custom-made surprise, but it’s a little too short to box with the beat ‘em up gods.
Slave Zero X is a game that will depend a lot on the player's taste, and that's okay. For those who want to be challenged to achieve amazing rankings and combos using everything the combat system offers, you will have a satisfying feast for the few hours of the main mode. For those who just want a no-fuss beat 'em up, it's best to look for something different.

a unique and engaging gaming experience that absolutely shreds and I just kept coming back for more!
Slave Zero X is a fantastic character action game that's rewarding, challenging, and has clear focus. Its deep combat mechanics, paired with an excellent biopunk presentation, elevate it above many similar releases while offering a fairly replayable campaign. It's brought down by a lack of movelist section in-game or in practice, and some gameplay quirks keep it from reaching the heights of the titans in the genre.
Incredibly stylish, beautifully violent, wonderfully voice-acted, surprisingly emotional and incredibly enjoyable: Slave Zero X is an absolute indie powerhouse.
Slave Zero X will get frustrating, but as we have learned over the years: sometimes a tough experience can yield the greatest rewards.
Slave Zero X not only allows the cult classic to experience a revival but it also pays homage to the dystopian anime’s that served as its inspiration.
