Critic Reviews for Men in Black: Most Wanted
Men In Black: Most Wanted not only knows its source so well, but also its medium. Most Wanted delivers a fun overarching story as episodic beats with interesting exploration and logic puzzles, as well as fun set pieces for shootouts. Unique controls and a welcoming cartoon atmosphere make the game a delight to be in.
Men in Black: Most Wanted is a solid VR game that does right by its IP and is a fun game throughout; it doesn't do anything extraordinary, and the visuals can be a bit flat at times, but it's a good time.
So there is no concern that the lack of hype for this game was due to it not being very good. Men in Black: Most Wanted is a very enjoyable VR experience. It finds a great balance of being rewarding for existing fans of the franchise, whilst not allowing newcomers to feel alien in this world. I definitely recommend giving it a try. Even though I’ve wrapped up my review, I’ll still be making sure to finish my playthrough. I award Men in Black: Most Wanted the Thumb Culture Gold Award.
Men in Black: Most Wanted is a faithful but modest adaptation that prioritizes accessibility and franchise flavor over mechanical depth. Its core gameplay is built around simple shooting, gadget use, and linear level progression, making it easy to jump into but rarely demanding. The game’s biggest strength lies in how well it captures the tone of the animated series, from its alien designs and humor to its overall presentation. However, the simplicity that makes the game approachable also limits its longevity. Enemy variety is thin, challenge remains fairly low throughout, and missions follow a predictable structure that leaves little room for experimentation or mastery. Players looking for complex combat systems or layered progression will likely find the experience shallow.
