Critic Reviews for Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition
Guacamelee! is as amazing as ever. And now that it's migrated to nearly every platform, everyone can enjoy it.
With new content, minor balancing, and smart new formula tweaks, Drinkbox has managed to improve their already fantastic Mexican Metroidvania title. Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition is a better version of an outstanding game, meaning that players new and old alike should take great pleasure from it.
Over four years on and Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition is still a 'rasslin riot that's well worth a play. Despite the passage of time, this colourful indie effort doesn't show its age and fits the portability of Switch down to the ground. If you've played it already on Wii U there's very little here to convince you to double dip (unless, of course, you've only played the 2013 version) - bar the ability to play in handheld mode - but if you've somehow missed this lovely luchador adventure, you'll struggle to find a better platform to play it on.
In addition to being a fun gameplay experience, it's also an example of how artistic vision and clever, light-hearted writing can enhance an experience, an example of what can be achieved when development studios devote themselves fully to delivering a high quality product.If you're an action platformer fan with quick thumbs, this is a must-buy.
Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition doesn't get much wrong throughout, and the inclusion of new levels and enemies adds longevity to an already great experience. It can be a little repetitive if played for long periods, but the unique and likeable art-style and effortlessly enjoyable combat carry it through.
The classic taste of luchador chicken, complete with spicy additions: Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition wins. For pinning.

A longer running time helps address one of the few flaws with the original game, and single-handedly makes up for the lack of official new Metroid and Castlevania games.
[W]ith persistent cooperative play and plenty of exploration, genuinely fun combat, and gorgeous 1080p graphics, it's hard to find a better value for your digital currency of choice.
