    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.

    A shockingly terrible game with horrible controls and boring, repetitive game-play. Only pick this one up if you're a huge Godzilla fan, and even then, only if you can get a copy for very, very, very cheap.

    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

    Godzilla is a very poorly made game. It has bad, BAD controls, terrible "Story" (if you can call it that), and the game crashed on me multiple times. the only good thing about this game is it's fan service. If you're a Godzilla fan and you find the game for $15 or less, buy it.

    This game is absolutely appalling. I would not recommend this to anyone, even die hard godzilla fans. The story is the worst story I have ever played it's so repetitive you have to destroy generators over and over. the graphics are terrible and its the worst game I've played yet.

Something I felt was an absolute must for this game. Overall, a perfect example of how to not make a Godzilla game.… Expand

    This game is total crap. Worst game of the year. Destroying cities might have been fun if it wasn't clunky and unresponsive to control. Repetitive missions. Grinding to get bigger. Nothing is good about this game. **** no.

    This game is good if you're a die hard Godzilla fan. It has almost all the monsters from the series, but it's difficult to control your character like making it turn around for example.

Now with me overall scoring this at a 4, I will say at the lest that this game is bad but I will say that I do recommend this to anyone who is a fan of Godzilla, doesn't mind bad game play, and love to see all your favorite monsters fight. ^_^… Expand

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 Graphics are a disaster, and the game looks like a ps2 game at best,. The bugs and glitches are common in this game and the texture detail is blurry and bad designed. The gameplay is maybe the worst part here, Godzilla moves like a robot, add that a bad hitbox detection and you have a very boring and repetitive game. the buildings explode instead of just fall, i can't believe this disaster has been released for ps4. 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.

    Gameplay is just .....well, almost non-existant. A main campaign that is embarrassingly short, bare bones online MP (if you even want to call it that.) This game assumes it is highly replayable ..... ONLY BECAUSE IT IS INTENTIONALLY MADE THAT WAY!!!!! It is mind numbingly repetitive with nothing really driving you to even want to play again, yet alone multiple times. *Supreme facepalm* This game is an abomination.

    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.

    Note to the production team:
    You should all be ashamed of this. Back alley discount prostitutes have more dignity than this. For shame!    … Expand

    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!!

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.
