The most unique aspect of this game is the gameplay, it’s Divided to many amazing segments but it’s main focus is the combat system which is awesome and unique. The story is surprisingly good, with moments that are beyond amazing, plus the soundtrack is great. There is also cool bonuses like a gallery and a neat multiplayer mode. The Wonderful 101 Remastered is the definition of unique, it’s amazing gameplay and story supported by an excellent soundtrack, a must play indeed. (Amazing 4/5) Your Missing Out!… Expand

    60fps for the most part on ps4 with 1080p. It's definitely just a port but the game is fantastic. If you never owned a wii u and like games by Kamiya... this is him on overdrive. Give it a shot.

    One of the deepest combat systems in any arcade style action game ever made! The story and characters are likable and the set pieces are completely bonkers. It really is wonderful!

    A masterpiece with a brilliant ending. The game has troubles with puzzles being hard to understand and possibly requiring a walkthrough. I used Youtube several times to progress. But the action is top-of-the-class. One of the most epic endings I've played. If you're into PlatinumGames or Japanese action games in general, this is a must-play.

    ‪The Wonderful 101 has to be the most fun and wholesome singleplayer videogame there is. ‬
    ‪The absolute spirit of vgs distilled in a game, an authentic and super rewarding digital Disneyland on steroids.‬

    Wonderful 101 is truly something different. Still have my WiiU copy, but honestly it plays better on the PS5. Loads super fast, better resolution, sound and frame rate. They added new camera zooms, they aren’t perfect but improved. With a PS4/PS5 controller you can bring up the old touchscreen style menu pretty effectively.

There is the puzzle element as the game dies t exactly tell you what to do, you have to experiment as you go. It’s more addictive on the PS5 and not as clunky as it was on using the WiiU touchscreen. Like playing a comic book or cartoon, which I apparently like as I liken this to Guardians of the Galaxy. I love the game and I’d recommend it if you are in to cartoon/comic franchise games.… Expand

    Perhaps gamespot would only appreciate a platinum game like bayonetta 2, which is all about making concessions to newbies. But no matter how many points are deducted from this game, it is impossible to get only 40. Although the game has bugs and is not very novice friendly, it's still a rare good game.

    I played this game seriously again on the PS4. I hope all the developers are brave enough to continue to develop excellent games that adhere to themselves in the future.    … Expand

    The game's main mechanics are incedibly original and really, really fun, easy to learn but hard to master.

    The levels are impressive, with a huge amount of different enemies to fight, each of them being it's own unique concept with it's own moveset and moves (some of them can do a LOT of attacks!).
    And the boss fights... are just incredible. Every single boss fight from this game is full of crazy action and over the top epicness, with unpredictable bosses that can use different attacks every time you play the battle.

    The Wonderful 101 gets better and better as long as you progress, with an excellent character development, orchestrated soundtrack, non-stoping action and a sense of epicness that you can't see in almost any game.

    And the hard mode? You'll love it.    … Expand

    The Wonderful 101: Remastered is indeed wonderful with its action-packed campaign and highly enjoyable gameplay. As if that's not enough, there's an underlying message that I'm sure we could all use right now.

    I’m sure those who loved The Wonderful 101 the first time around will get a kick out of playing this game again on modern day consoles with nicer visuals. For those that hadn’t experienced it before though, this remaster feels like an artifact from a bygone age that couldn’t adapt to a new set of input’s without the Wii U controller. The combat and concept are still sound 7 years on. Everything else needed to be reworked or tweaked further.

    Still one of the most unique character action games we’ve played, combined with a heartwarming story and retro-futuristic setting that is just pure feel-good. Simply… wonderful. [Issue#177, p.150]
