Bubsy 4D Reviews
Bubsy 4D, for better or worse, is a Bubsy game. It still has some of the main irritations that the franchise is known for, but they are thankfully overshadowed by some outstanding gameplay. The platforming and feeling of speed and control are unmatched, and there is nothing quite like a complex platforming section that just comes off as seamless. It’s in these moments you forget you’re playing a game attached to the Bubsy the Bobcat franchise. I genuinely wouldn’t mind more Bubsy games of this quality. It’s been a nice palate cleanser and gave me some of my favorite platforming action I’ve experienced outside of a Nintendo game. Bubsy is always going to irritate, that’s just how he is, but when he has gameplay like this to back him up, I can’t help but love the mischievous, fourth-wall-breaking tyke.
Bubsy 4D is an absolute joy to play, packed with a genuinely hilarious sense of humor. Featuring precise gameplay enhanced by excellent momentum, charismatic characters, and a charming aesthetic, the game brings one of gaming’s most infamous mascots back into the spotlight — and, if all goes well, this time he’s here to stay. The team at Fabraz has once again delivered a top-tier platformer and, despite a few aspects that could still be improved here and there — in some cases unrelated to the studio itself — there’s no denying that we are looking at one of the best platform games of 2026.

We have a short game with responsive controls and smooth movement, featuring the kind of old-school humor that both celebrates and pokes fun at a game so terrible it’s practically a joke. What could possibly go wrong?

Bubsy 4D manages to be a consistent, well-paced platformer that doesn't waste your time. It encourages you to master its mechanics while providing smooth controls and a great soundtrack. I honestly can't believe I'm saying this, but I legitimately like Bubsy now. That says everything about what Fabraz managed to accomplish; they didn't just break this bobcat's curse, they made him an underdog worth rooting for.
Bubsy 4D is a great 3D platformer that’s a little on the short side but still gives a lot of respect to a character who deserved more love than he ever got. It’s charming, funny, challenging, and shows that it’s paw-sible to make a wonderful Bubsy game.
