    Caladrius Blaze is a top class shoot ’em up that feels like an authentic arcade title but with console quality visuals. With plenty of options, it caters for the pro players but also us regular folk too.

    It will attract the retro veterans, with a void they need to fill for shoot them ups, but to the general gamer, do not bother with this game while it is full price.

    Caladrius Blaze has good core mechanics which offers some classic shmup gameplay. The shame breaks are a disappointing distraction at best and the game’s campaign is a little short. However, in terms of action this is a pretty solid shmup and should please most fans of the genre.

The juvenile "shame breaks" are also cringeworthy to anyone other than adolescent boys, but it's got nice visuals and is otherwise inoffensive. Good enough to satisfy fans of the genre but not good enough to win over those who aren't.… Full Review »

    a somewhat decent bullet hell game...very short...takes less than an hour to beat though.

    The game play and controls here are perfect, the only issue is that the game stutters (frame rate drops) during the special mission stagesThe game play and controls here are perfect, the only issue is that the game stutters (frame rate drops) during the special mission stages even on PS4 pro but nothing serious, arcade runs smoothly. Caladrius blaze is very challenging if you have no experience in this genre, I don't like anime but I love crazy Japanese shmups and I wish we had more of them on PlayStation .… Full Review »
