The gameplay is not fun at all and the visuals aren’t that good either. Fans of the series may find some redeeming qualities within the game but if you are unfamiliar with the One Punch Man series, I would stay away from this game.

Despite the weird performance hitches in some spots and the game feeling a bit clunky at times, I am having one hell of a good time with the game.

One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is not a bad anime implementation, but unfortunately not a good one either. The new hero arrival system, various events and items as well as the detailed characters from the series bring a breath of fresh air into the fighting. This also gives the luck factor an enormous weighting, which is not necessarily advisable in a beat’em up.

One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is a game aimed primarily at Saitama fans with a nice progression system and lots of content. Unfortunately, not all of them are well made, the gameplay can become monotonous and the fights weighed down by various structural defects.

One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows it's basically Jump Force with Saitama and his friends and enemies.

One-Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is a great fighting game, but its open levels need more work when it comes to the voice acting and animations.

As fans of One-Punch Man, in any case, in the new license licensed by Bandai Namco you will find a lot of fanservice with pleasure, from the characterization of a rather large roster to the reconstruction of a crackling universe.

Let's be very clear: One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is, all in all, a pleasant game, sometimes even fun, but that leaves a bitter taste in the mouth to anyone, even fans of manga, or anime. The fighting is the beating heart of the game experience, but it's burdened with commands that you'd hardly call farraginous and inaccurate. The technical sector does not do justice to one of the most beloved franchises of the land of the rising sun in recent years, and it leaves a bitter taste in the mouth. Give it a chance, only six of you are a die-hard Saitama fans and partners, otherwise you'll move on, even if reluctantly.

Fun and faithful to its base material, A Hero Knobody Knows works best when it can overcome its visible budget limitations.

One Punch Man: Hero Nobody Knows triumphs in creating a battle dynamic that accommodates the particularities of its great protagonist and works very well for those already initiated in this universe. Beyond that, it is a game similar to so many other famous anime adaptations, with an extremely simplified combat system and a single class C look.

In One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows, becoming a hero for fun isn't all it's cracked up to be. Saitama is a hilariously game breaking gimmick that pays off in single-player, but online he only leads to frustration. Elsewhere,the main story mode has plenty to do, but there's not much variety. Fans will mostly enjoy the writing and the fighting, but newcomers might be left wanting.

A video game from an amazing anime series is not necessarily an amzing game and One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is an exact example of it. The fighting system and some features of the game is satisfying, but the main problem is so repetitive gameplay and also technical graphics issues. If you love saitama you will enjoy the game, but you should know that its not the game that matches the quality of One punch man anime series.

Perhaps a severe drop in price would make this worth a look, but for now only extremely hardcore One Punch Man fans should consider making a purchase.

Worthy of a Class-A Hero! One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is a solid fighting game experience wrapped in nostalgia and callbacks to the animated source material. Fans of the anime will love to be able to play as their favorite characters and add their own flair to this over the top world of heroes and monsters. Despite some drawbacks the game is a fun way to immerse yourself in the world of One Punch Man and feel like a true Hero.

One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is nothing more than a quick cash grab made with no ambition. The characters are fun and the game has a clever way of creating a gameplay system out of Saitama's power and the series' events. But that pretty much it. The game quickly becomes boring and could visually pass as a (bad) PS3 game. One Punch Man fans will unfortunately have to wait for a better game.

Look, I'm going to be honest with you, despite its flaws I still really like One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows, it's just so far removed from what it feels like it could have been. There's a vast gulf between the unique ideas that make this feel special and the basic gaming stuff that it doesn't quite get right. It's a real shame because this could have been one of the best anime games to date.

One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is more ambitious than it needed to be, to its own detriment. While the main missions and combat are very enjoyable, forced, lacklustre side content spoils the pacing and makes the game tedious to play. Still very fun for the right fan, but not without a sale.

If you are a fan of One Punch Man you'll probably get a kick out of A Hero Nobody Knows but don't expect it to keep you playing long. For every minute of brilliance there is an hour of grinding to go along with it, and that's trying even for the most dedicated fans of the Caped Baldy.

One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is a decent debut for the Baldy Hero, but the host of gameplay and story problems get in the way.
