Titan Quest Reviews
An admirable ARPG gets lost in a less than thoughtful Switch port.
A certain historical perspective and a touch of nostalgia will go a long way to helping you appreciate Titan Quest and its quirks. That core loop of killing satyrs in four hits before finding rare loot that destroys them in one is as compelling as it ever was. Disappointing visual glitches and the occasional crash give the impression that everything is held together with nothing more than sticky tape and a prayer, but it was never enough to stop us playing. Handheld mode is a massive boon for any RPG and, as long as you're not expecting miracles, this Switch port delivers the core experience well enough to warrant investigation.
A more-than-competent loot-based action RPG with some interesting ideas
An unforgettable memory that, although it may feel outdated since its original release, it is worth being replayed or discovered.

Titan Quest was a reference of Action-RPG. And currently it remains. But the passage of time and a poor adaptation weigh down the experience of this adaptation.

The best similitude I can make regarding the remastered version of Titan Quest is that of a game that attempts to sneak into an era that has long passed it by. While a minimal amount of enjoyment can be had listening to the wayfarers and tradesmen across the many worlds that the hero visits, there are too many problems that stem from the game's now ancient design. While titles like Shadow of the Colossus can confidently hold their own in a decade that they were not intended for, it may be a bittersweet sign of the swift progression in the industry that most titles are just not good enough anymore.
At the end of the day, it's Titan Quest. For those that have never played it, they may either love it or hate it depending on how well they adapt to the grid-based movement. Fans of the original 2006 release who are looking to try the game out again will have a fun time here. While it's not the best port of a PC action RPG, it has the makings of a fun time with up to five buddies online.
Terrible controls, outdated gameplay with a bad loot drop system and many bugs make Console Edition of Titan Quest a mess.

A perfectly average dungeon crawler with hours of gameplay to offer, Titan Quest's flaws are too numerous to properly recommend it above and beyond its genre counterparts.
While I started out frustrated, every hour I invested in Titan Quest paid off in full.
Let's be brutally honest: this new edition of Titan Quest is simply terrible. Technically it's a disaster, with a constant flow of bugs and glitches that seriously undermine the game experience (there are still references to the keyboards commands). It's too bad, because the original game was a great hack 'n slash.

Titan Quest is a hack-n-slash game that captivated a great many players for over a decade. There have been thousands of mods, skill-sets, skins, and even a few full games made in its wake because of how good it was. Now on console, the game lives again. Maybe a bit too close to the flawed original, and maybe not as hack-friendly as the original, but it gives a chance for a new set of players to battle a titan… and that should be good enough for anyone.
Titan Quest lands on the Nintendo Switch as a remaster of a game that originally saw the light of day twelve years ago. While its visual environment is certainly outdated, despite some technical improvements, Titan Quest's gameplay still retains some interest and its local and online multiplayer modes are definitely enjoyable. Despite all that, the game still feels fairly repetitive and it does not stand on the top of the scale of action RPG.

Titan Quest is past his peak, even the new edition looks stale and struggles with technical issues.

Titan Quest is a classic PC Action-RPG that is badly adapted to Xbox One. Despite maintaining its virtues as the first day, its performance complicates the player's experience, especially those who did not know the original 2006 game.

Titan Quest is an entertaining port that brings back a blast from the past. The gameplay is smooth, the controls are precise, and the skills are pretty cool as well. The texture loading issues and freezes that occasionally happen can be annoying, but they aren't game-breaking. Titan Quest can also be enjoyed solo or with friends.
In sum, the surprise release of the fourth DLC is great news for anyone that enjoys this game. There is enough quality content in Eternal Embers to warrant a purchase, but it’s also clear that it’s time for Titan Quest to get a full-blown, AAA-level sequel. The bones of Titan Quest are still excellent, but they are very much showing their age in some respects. I don’t think anyone would disagree that it’s time for a proper sequel to be the next big news we hear about Titan Quest. Until then, though, it’s easy to recommend Eternal Embers to anyone that wants to take on another epic quest in the Titan Quest universe.
Since Titan Quest was released on PC we've got many better games in hack 'n' slash genre. This one lacks dynamic battles, controls are mediocre at best and there is many technical problems.

This new version of Titan Quest shows so many failures and problems about graphic and technique, maybe due to the low quality of the whole work done too fast and with fewer contents than the previous editions, alas.

Titan Quest was better remembered as a decent hack'n'slash on PC than a mediocre Diablo clone on consoles: this version is clearly rushed out and it doesn't do any justice to a title that's been fun and engaging for the last twelve years.
