God Eater 3 bears a superficial resemblance to Monster Hunter, boasting many of its features, but none of its depth. It offers nothing but diluted versions of what it has tried to poach from better games.

A Monster Hunter clone that does some things differently but doesn't manage to improve on element of it is far more entertaining inspiration.

Rough and wordy, God Eater 3 is not an improvement on its predecessor

God Eater 3’s approach of simply offering more of the same without doing anything to expand on what made it such a strong challenger is a disappointment. It still has its positives, but they’ve all been seen before.

An empty game without much in the way of satisfaction. It's as if someone took the bare frame of what makes a God Eater game and sold it. God Eater 3 needed much more time in the oven, and while its polished presentation may look appealing on the surface, the hollow gameplay is where its true colors are shown. Compared to the precedent set by previous titles, it's a disappointment.

God Eater 3 is a pretty decent Monster Hunter-like, but the game seems so old in terms of gameplay and visuals.

God Eater 3's blend of hack-and-slash with light role-playing elements makes for a compelling and fast-paced experience propelled by a fun story.

God Eater 3 is a middling experience of ideas and gameplay that paradoxically work and don’t work.

The new episode of God Eater saga has good ideas, taken from the best games of the genre, but poorly implement.

God Eater 3 rewards you for diving deeper into its mechanics. There’s a lot to like here when it comes to customization and combat, but the story and level design leave a lot to be desired.

In a perfect world, God Eater 3 would have been a leap in quality similar to Monster Hunter World and had been the big coming out party for the series. Sadly, that isn’t the case here at all. Instead, fans got more of the same with little innovation and the extra difficulty feeling more artificial than interesting. All in all, Marvelous’ first attempt at making a new God Eater title is just fine. It won’t wow any new players, nor will it feel like such a departure from what made players fans in the first place.

God Eater 3 is the most polished that the series has been, but new developer Marvelous hasn't managed to buff out all the cracks.

Take a bite out of godlike monsters in this post-apocalyptic action RPG. The greatest enemy may not be the Aragami, but a stagnated system and potential fatigue instead.

I enjoyed slashing away at Aragami enough to have a good bit of fun with the combat, but I could never escape the feeling that I could be having so much more fun by playing a better game in the same genre.

Fans will certainly appreciate God Eater 3 as a solid continuation of the franchise. Newcomers, however, will probably have to force their way through a significant part of the experience to feel the same joy. There is a solid monster-slaying action-RPG buried under here; it's just a matter of how deep you're willing to dig to uncover its treasures.

God Eater 3 is a delightful smashup of monsters, swords and skintight leather. Just don’t be surprised when you discover that’s all there is.

God Eater 3's core gameplay is spot-on for exciting combat yet its missions are too one-note for it to remain engaging for more than a few hours.

God Eater 3 is a fun game but lacks anything new and different from the previous installments, the fast action fight system is fun no doubt but proved to be outdated and limited, the design is OK at it's best, and the story is probably the worst.

God Eater 3 doesn’t exactly bring anything brand new to the table and isn’t really technically groundbreaking, but it’s good for what it’s meant for. It’s a good Monster Hunter substitute with all the JRPG tropes in one package. It’s a game that feels rewarding and brings players back for more.

God Eater 3 isn’t for everyone. Some will find it too easy, its story is passable, its controls take some getting to… I could go on. Thanks to its engaging fast-paced combat and considerable character development options, however, it’s well worth working through its flaws.
