    The game has horrible, outdated graphics, yet still lags like hell. The gameplay is boring, and glitchy, the animations are horrible, there is a narator conatantly annoying you, in other words, this game is not worth 60$ at all. Please spend yoyr money on a better game.

    I got this cheap and if you like Godzilla or you like a quick 5 minute rampage through a city you should get this. It gets repetitive fast and you have to grind to level up, but for 5-20 minute bursts, this is glorious fun and is something I keep coming back to.

    But I'm a hardcore Godzilla fan and I actually did enjoy running around as a kaiju destroying buildings(you'd think someone would make an open world godzilla game like that) and fighting other monsters even if the combat in the game is simple. It's fun unlocking my favorite kaijus and playing as them, that entertained me, but after playing through the campaign over 100 time, I've gotten sick of it and needed a break.

    This game could of been so much more and it's not worth buying if you're not a hardcore Godzilla fan. For Hardcore Godzilla fans this isn't worth buying new or full price, go out and buy a cheap use copy if your curious.    … Expand

    As much as people love to hate on this Godzilla game, I actually loved it. It was a cinematic game, which is rare, and you had so many monsters to choose from. With really good graphics for a monster game. It felt like you were in the game. The only thing negative I have to say was it was slow, I wanted the game to move faster, like in Godzilla: Save the Earth.

If you aren't a godzilla fan, don't even think about touching this. However, if you are a fan, then this may just be the perfect game for you. And since I am a fan, this game is bloody awesome! The problem is people think of this like the Pipeworks godzilla games when it isn't. You, as the player can control a variety of kaiju to appear in the godzilla franchise, although you only start with '84 godzilla. You can rampage through the game, unlocking more monsters as you go, each of which have incredibly faithul ability sets. As I said, the controls are clunky, but what do you expect? You aren't playing as a yoga instructor, you're playing as a 60m tall, slow, strong kaiju. The controls are perfect in that regard. All the biggest, most important monsters are here, and also, your favourite is likely in the roster (sorry Orga fans, but he isn't in it). The graphics aren't the best, but they help emulate that rubber-suit feel. In fact that's what I can say for the game as a whole. In it's mediocrity, it manages to capture the feeling like YOU ARE a monster in a godzilla flick. I only really have 2 complaints, though. 1, is that when your playing as a REALLY big monster, such as Destoroyah or Mecha King Ghidora, the camera has a hard time finding a spot where you can actually see more than 2 feet ahead of you. Also, the G-Force Operator constantly comments on events, and it can get annoying. Especially considering that it shouldn't even be possible for the kaiju to hear it. Overall, this game is really hard to enjoy for people who aren't fans. But if you are a fan, buy it as soon as possible. I admit, if I bought this full price, this review would be very different, but nowadays, you can grab it for about 20 bucks. A price i think is a bit low, but the cheaper the better, I suppose. It's such a shame that the poor reception this got will make the idea of a sequel nothing but a Godzilla fan's wet dream. But hey, at least the fans will always be here to cherish it.… Expand

    No offline multiplayer. If you were hoping to sit on the sofa with your friends and family playing as you would every other godzilla game in the past couple decades you're going to be sorely disappointed. Namco, in their infinite 'wisdom', has decided to make multiplayer online only and on the PS4 only.

    Overall:
    It is clear that there is a good idea behind the game and the team behind it really did want to make a game that was worthy of the name, as there are enough references to indicate the creators were big Godzilla fans. BUT, this is an incomplete game at best. Almost like 20% in to production they just gave up, polished up what little they did do , and put it out for sale. This Godzilla game is a shining example of why games in this condition are better off cancelled.

    The game gets the many monsters that have appeared throughout Godzilla history spot on. From Mothra to Rodan and Mechagodzilla to King Ghidorah, fans will adore seeing each kaiju pop up for a brawl from time to time. The monster roster's a decent size it's one of the title's strongest positives. What's more, each beast has its own set of unique moves, and you can even upgrade their abilities via Evolve mode, which sees you unlock upgrades on a skill tree by using collectible items earned from bashing other enemies.

    There's really no story here in the main King of Destruction campgain because I only did it in forty minutes. Gameplay is dull. All you do is destroy generators or either battle other kaijus. That is it! Really!

    Gameplay is too repetitive and I can't stop saying "He's a kaiju, not a god!"

    Oh yeah, I forgot! You need to complete the campgain numerous times to unlock other kaiju, which is full of bull****

    The King of Kaijus mode is the best thing about this game. Although, no local multiplayer, you can choose to play as other kaiju (whom you unlocked) and play against the CPU.

    I'd give it a 2/10 if there was any emotion on this game but NOOOO! We get a horrible PS4 port of a horrible PS3 game... No effort at all.

    Also, why was Yoko Ono, John Lennon's wife involved in development of this game. Very confusing and funny. Maybe that's why this game flopped like a plate of jelly!!

    I'm not sure what the people who gave low reviews were expecting from this game. It's a port of a PS3 game whose focus is on recreating the Toho Godzilla movies. This means that the monsters are slow and lumbering, and the action is fairly repetitive.

It's a port of a PS3 game whose focus is on recreating the Toho Godzilla movies. This means that the monsters are slow and lumbering, and the action is fairly repetitive.

    There are several modes in the game:
    God of Destruction is a mode that takes you through a series of maps as Godzilla, a defender of humanity, or an invader.
    King of the Monsters, in which you choose a kaiju to play as, and fight a series of 6 battles in a time-attack fashion
    VS Mode, which allows you to play 2 or 3-player battles online
    The other options are an Evolution mode, which allows you to level up your monsters, generally increasing the capacity or recovery rate of their special attacks. Though it should be noted that most of the Godzilla's (there are a few versions) each have unique attacks you can purchase.
    The Kaiju Guide is a list of data entries for each of the kaiju in the game, and a few that aren't.
    Finally, there's a Diorama mode, which I found really unique. Basically, you accumulate "bases" in God of Destruction mode, which serve as the diorama backgrounds, and you accumulate "figures" in Evolution mode. You can place these figures in the base and create battle scenes of your own design. I like the concept, but it's a little strange. The interface for that is also not very user-friendly.

    So how does the game play? Well, I found it to be surprisingly similar to the Gundam games, which I enjoyed on the PS2, such as Journey to Jaburo. It takes a little time to acclimate to the unique control scheme, but it's not overly complex. One negative I had was that not all monsters are created equal. I mean, from a lore perspective you wouldn't expect them to be, but the game doesn't alter the objectives accordingly. So with some monsters, you may have a much harder time with some levels, and in some cases cannot complete the bonus objectives due to the way the monsters attacks work.
    Defeating monsters and completing the God of Destruction mode gives you evolution parts to level up your kaiju. If levelling them all to max is your goal, be prepared to play through the God of Destruction mode a LOT. This is where the complaints of the repetitive nature of the game come from for most people.
    Online VS is pretty fun, though I prefer the 3 player mode over the 2 player one, just because some more interesting strategies come into play with 3 players. The only complaint I have is that the lag is unbelievable in some matches. This is because the matchmaking appears to be global.

    Overall, I think the faithful recreation of the Toho franchise is what divides people on this game. I'm not sure what people who aren't fans of the movies were expecting when they picked this game up. Should this game be 60 dollars? Probably not. Despite that, I'm having a ton of fun with it, and have already put almost 20 hours into it. This game is a love letter to G-fans, and it's just as fun and flawed as the movies it draws from.    … Expand

Sure the game suffers from some issues with difficulty at the beginning, but the game does not punish you for going the easy route.

Tank controls on it could be better, but this is probably the first time Natsume (developers of Harvest Moon and Abadox) has programmed a game of this magnitude. It is simplistic and kind of repetitive yet stays true to the Godzilla playstyle: slow and lumbering, yet unaware of gunfire. I'm only guessing this, but they may have just forgot to put in a life meter for Godzilla because he regenerates from near death damage so quickly. Overall I'd say that the game is fun for what it is and is quite aware of how gimmicky it is. 8/10… Expand

What makes matters worse is there's little use of blocking or dodging and that everything you do in single player modes carries over to online which makes the game void of traditional fighting and more of a contest on who has the strongest monster and not who IS the strongest monster. Speaking of online there is no offline versus mode which means no COM or Local Multiplayer like Godzilla games such as Destroy all monsters melee. Are the controls that bad? Actually, no. The controls work for a Godzilla game the only big problem is that you turn with L1 and R1 which can get annoying and sometimes even get you stuck being hit from behind by other monsters becoming very cheap, very fast. Overall, it's mildy interesting for Godzilla fans but that's about it. It's not as bad as people make it out to be but that doesn't mean it's good.

The game itself renders the cinematic movies beautifully. It truly feels like you are taking part in some of the classics that I have grown up on. But the sluggish controls really hamper the game. Using the shoulder buttons to turn your monster is not that bad once you get used to it..... but it becomes chaotic when you are suddenly forced to slowly turn around and try to face what is attacking you from behind. The recovery time from being attacked is also really slow as it seems some monsters can just hit you over and over and over again without pause, all the while you are still trying to correct your position just so you may have a fighting chance. Most times, it ends in a premature death. Especially when fighting against the computer on Hard. Its almost impossible when Mothra is continuously spiraling at you and all you can do is take the hit. The addition of a block button would have been nice, but seeing how there isn't one, it just feels cheap. I really like the graphics myself. It has a nostalgia to it that makes it feel like you are in the movie or playing a part of it . As opposed to other Godzilla games, these are the best graphics the monster has received in some while. The addition of online play is a hit or miss. Sometimes it is absolute fun (minus the awkward controls) but most times there seems to be a lag that really hinders the experience. There is a real lack of game modes and it just gets so repetitive to play the same modes repeatedly just to unlock and level up monsters. I had to play all monsters doing the same mission over and over again just to reach a certain height / unlock new abilities. Its unfortunate as I have loved all the Godzilla games I have ever played. Save The Earth, Unleashed, Destroy All Monsters Melee, but this is the worst of the bunch. It pains me because I am a HUGE Godzilla fan and have been since my boyhood years. I just wish that somehow someone could get it right. But this is not the one. I would only recommend renting this game first before you shell out $60 for it. The lack of game play modes, repetitive play, poor controls and awful online functionality make this a bigger disaster than even Godzilla himself could make. I just hope that one day we get another game that will do him justice. Online could be great, but with sluggish controls and a lag that's almost consistent throughout....its a monster disappointment . ;(… Expand

    You can become a pro and kill a Biollante with a Mothra Larva.

The reason these tank controls work is because your controling a giant monster, a slow lumbering creature, not another run of the mill shooting bang character we see every day. Personally i love the monster roster as it has a nice pick of every series of godzilla movies, such as hedorah, king ghidorah, rodan and amazingly the legendary pictures version of godzilla. The best part of this game HAS to be the multiplayer as you smack down other players from across the world. Each monster can be uprgraded when you defeat them in the main campaign and the nods to the series are so awesome, such as jet jaguar shrinking, godzilla flying, and mecha godzillas forcefield. If you wanna get this game and are a huge godzilla game i highly reccomend this game, especially if your sick of fps and zombie games taking up the franchise… Expand

    Godzilla PS4 as far as I can tell is a Godzilla simulator, you stomp around smashing and fighting monsters.

    Gameplay wise it's controls are un-necessarily clunky with some strange configurations which could be so much more simple, this is not the case though.
    The rest of the game is a lot of fun and nostalgic seeing your favourite monsters come into a city and challenge you, which always ends bad for them. There is no challenge. The game is way to easy and I constantly wipe the floor with the other monsters unless it's a Super X3 who is always off screen flying by out of sight.
    Overall it's a fifty fifty with nice fun nostalgic gameplay for G fans and boring outdated gameplay for your average gamer.

You can see how bad this game is when you see godzilla melt into the buildings, and he has like 2 or 3 movements that really suck. If you want to waste your money ($60+$20 for 3 months ps plus) so that's $80 bucks for play this **** awful game. This is probably one of the worst godzilla games ever made, the online quests does not make any sense, like destroying generators, if they are going to charge that much money, you expect something at least funny, but this game will dissapoint you in any way.

The fighting in the game is EXTREMELY frustrating you can't get one hit in without the AI monster constantly interrupting your attack they can you drop your tab and you can enjoy their attack which I find a tedious. it's very noisy you have to unlock everything which forces you to play this joke of a Godzilla game. there is no balance of the comes to fighting especially in online find mode CQB a level to find someone it's a level 69 there's no set matching in online versus mode, there are no variations want to come to the main story, and to unlock oh yeah the kind you you can have to replay the main story OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN. The Evolution mode isnt a freaking mode it's an upgrade screen and your upgrades don't carryover to the next location it all resets for you to read purchase those upgrades all over again. do yourself a favor and IGNORE all the ratings with green and game reviews with high praise from blind bias fanboys this is not a "Must have for diehard Godzilla fans" this game is absolute garbage you deserve to save your money for some better!

The special effects and very way the building fall apart is straight out of a Toho film. The models might as well be direct scans of the SH MonsterArts toy line!

    The controls are designed to feel exactly how you should, Iike a behemoth that shouldn't be able to move around fast in the first place! If you make a mistake charging and miss you opponent, you get punished and have to slow turn. That is what I expect to happen!

    The detailed sound effects of this game blow my mind! Not only does every monster use the correct roars from their films, but the very SFX they make when they fall is the same. That's the kind of attention to detail someone puts in when they care about what they're making! I personally lost my mind when they queued up Akira Ifukube's Military Marches at each Disaster Level!

    The multi-player itself is something different. It's plotting and methodical. You can't just run in and expect to win by spamming. You have to watch you opponents for opening.

A basic combo would be square 3x, triangle, circle with Godzilla. Each Monster requires a different fighting style. Mothra Larva is often more defensive and cautious, Biollante is pure offence, and MechaGodzilla is more better at a distance. The only con would be that leveling up each monster takes a while and the developers didn't add a split screen to play with friends over.    … Expand

Its boring doing the same missions over and over but its nice to at least get items from beating up monsters to level your own up. TheIts not a 10 star game by any means. But Its fun.

The Controls are interesting. L1 and R1 are used to turn left and right while the left joystick only moves you in a certain direction. As for graphics the character models are very well done. The scenery on the other hand is lacking. But most of it almost always gets blown up so Its not exactly the most important thing in the game. I would say this would be good for people looking for a filler game to pass the time of for Godzilla fans. Also for streamers I would also recommend this. Its a different game to play on stream which attracts more viewers and as long as you look past the strange quirks is surprisingly an enjoyable game.… Expand

    Great in-game graphics that run at 60fps. Only the cut scene graphics are poor. Smashing buildings is fun, the kaiju feel very powerful when you level them up.

    This shouldnt even exist...Ive seen a mod on GTA 5 with Godzilla that was by far better ( :''D )... This game should free of charge on Play Store to play on mobile...and again the ratings would be bad and sad... Dont even waste 1 euro or even a bronze coin for this game...Forget it simply

    I'm writing this review after destroying a city as King Ghidorah, flying and blasting buildings apart with my beams then stomping Battra when he appeared. Destroy All Monsters, Save the Earth, Unleashed all had mixed reviews from critics. But fans of Godzilla, like me, enjoyed them for countless hours. This Ps4 title is no different.

    I'm not sure why people expected a AAA budget game and thats why they're getting their panties in a knot. I'm stomping around destroying buildings, smacking other kaiju and having fun with decent graphics and good sound. What's more to love? As someone who wished that Destroy All Monsters and Save the Earth on the Xbox had more of a destruction focus, I feel like this complements that well. It's not a fighter like them but a monster rampage simulator. Exactly what I always wanted.

    Main point? Come in with a love of destroying buildings and rampaging through Tokyo and you won't be disappointed. If you come in expecting a heart wrenching monster opera crossed with a fighting game, you'd best look elsewhere.    … Expand

    Godzilla is easily the perfect game for any Godzilla or giant kaiju fans. This game is made for the fans of the classic Toho Godzilla films. There's tons of fan service, all the kaiju look, sound, and act just like how they did in the movies. The gameplay is simple, but fun. The main game mode is God of Destruction Mode.

This game is made for the fans of the classic Toho Godzilla films. There's tons of fan service, all the kaiju look, sound, and act just like how they did in the movies. The gameplay is simple, but fun. The main game mode is God of Destruction Mode. Basically, you take control of Godzilla or any other kaiju and destroy as much of the city as you can. Your main goal is to destroy the G-Generators and defeat the enemy kaiju, if one appears on that particular level. It's tons of fun to blast the cities with your atomic breath and see everything explode around you. As you destroy the cities, the "disaster level" will rise, bringing in more tanks and jets and occasionally a Super X. As mentioned, you can destroy the city with other kaiju. However, if you play as a kaiju such as Mothra or Super Mechagodzilla, you will be tasked with defending the city and preventing destruction. As you play through the game, you can evolve your kaiju in evolution mode and gain new attacks for Godzilla. You can also upgrade the energy charge speed.

    Now onto the graphics, as mentioned, everything looks just like the original Godzilla films. The monsters are easily the best models in the game and look amazing. The buildings are not as good as the kaiju models, but they serve their purpose, for you to destroy them. There's been many complaints on how the graphics look bad but honestly, I'm not seeing it. The graphics look great. Sure, the millions of sparks that appear may not be realistic, but remember, this game's aim is to emulate the Godzilla films, specifically the Heisei series, so the sparks, while they may not look realistic, are there because they're there in the films.

    There's tons of fan service. You can blow up Gigan's head just like how his head exploded in Godzilla Final Wars. You can melt the Super X II's Fire Mirror by blasting it with atomic breath a few times, just like Godzilla vs Biollante. When you play as Godzilla 1964, the last stage pits you against 2 Mothra larva, like in Mothra vs Godzilla. You can even tear off Mechagodzilla 2's head and it'll reveal the mechanical brain underneath just like in Terror of Mechagodzilla. You see, things like this are what makes this game the best Godzilla game.

    I'd highly recommend you try out this game if you're a Godzilla fan, or even just a fan of kaiju in general. If you're not a kaiju fan, this game is probably not for you. Don't listen to all of the negative reviews, try the game out yourself and see if you like it. Their complaints aren't even valid. "Repetitive Gameplay" is a common complaint, yet that complaint comes from the same critics who love CoD, which is even more repetitive, all you do is run, shoot, get killed, respawn, repeat. The other major complaint are the graphics. Remember, we gamers are not playing games for their pretty graphics, we play them to have fun.

    Thank you for reading my review and I hope you enjoy the game! Go Go Godzilla!    … Expand

    With ropy graphics, repetitive gameplay and wretched controls, Godzilla is so bad that it’s almost lovable. You get a lot of classic kaiju to play with, and smashing them through the sights of Tokyo can be strangely entertaining. Sadly, it’s not entertaining enough to warrant paying out for a full-price game.

    It's more of a Godzilla simulator than a fighting game, and it completely succeeds at that. If you want a fighting game, go play the Pipeworks Godzilla trilogy. This is for fans that want to live the films.

    While the gameplay gets rather repetitive I really enjoy the simplicity of being just able to hop the game and destroy everything as a giant kaiju. Unlocking everything is definitely a grind but I enjoy the Godzilla franchise so it wasn't a problem.

    If your not a huge fan of the series I can see how the game could be boring and seen as not polished.

    But if you are a huge Godzilla fan it has plenty of play through value, trophies to earn and online play!

    Highly recommend for the Godzilla fans out there! This game gets a lot of negative press but I love it!

    This is not Save the Earth. I think everyone got accustom to the Pipeworks but this is not one of those games. This is a Godzilla movie simulator not a fighting game. But yes it is rough-around-the-edges, yes the graphics aren't super good. At the end of the day it does have a lot of replay value and the gameplay is repetitive but fun

    Godzilla reeks of disappointment from every fiber of its being. It's boring as hell and hard to control. What on Earth were the developers thinking? [Jan 2016]

    All in all, there may not be enough substance for a gamer to really stick around and play the game more than a few times in curiosity.

    Seeing a game like this in 2015 is... well, unbelievable. It's an utter pile of Kaiju waste, with horrible gameplay, dated graphics, and a repetitive campaign.
