    "Arkanoid Eternal Battle" is a great modern adaptation of the iconic arcade game that will please both newcomers and long-time fans. So we were more excited to still play with human players than against the AI. If you'd like to experience a great classic again, you might want to take a closer look at the Limited Edition of "Arkanoid Eternal Battle".

    The new single player levels have some decent levels, but there's also a ton of horrible levels that are grossly unfair.
    I can't believe unbreakable gold block are still in so frequent in Arkanoid. It's a horrendous idea which is the worst version of "Tension".

    To make matters worse, the speed of the ball becomes uncontrollable after 20-30 seconds into each level which is unbelievably cheap garbage. And when you add in floating enemies that hang around you at the bottom to redirect the ball so you can't react, it’s infuriating.

    This game is full of horrendously cheap BS just to extend the play time.

    The New Eternal Battle which is just vs other people, & when I played it, there was only 2 actual humans out of 25, with the rest made up of Al. That’s how badly this game has flopped.

    When you change position on the leaderboard in eternal battle, the semi transparent levels you’re opponents are playing, flashes across your screen in a pathetic attempt to create a distraction, which is an even more cheap **** way to do tension. Embarrassing.

    I waited for this game to drop from $45 to $4.50 and I still want my money back.

    I want a good new Arkanoid, but nobody wants this unfair trash.

    It is now a constant, with Arkanoid Eternal Battle, Pastagames offers a very nice reinvention of a great video game classic. Those who in their younger years broke bricks so that the little ship Vaus could carry out its mission will find their 1986 game as if they were in a game center, in addition to a Neo mode that brings enough novelties and good ideas to boost interest. Finally, the Battle Royale, a great novelty here, fits perfectly to Taito's cult title, especially when the whole is supported by visuals and electro-futuristic music of the best effect.

    Arkanoid: Eternal Battle saves itself in the corner thanks to a series of ancillary methods which, between classicism and modernity, know how to pay homage in an at least dignified way to a work that has made the history of the medium. As for its battle royale heart, unfortunately, it must be noted that it has a certain difficulty in pulsating, too inconsistent and frequented by the community to justify, on its own, a ticket price that is not so low.

    Arkanoid is a legend that never dies, but its take on the battle royale formula is plagued by some inconsistencies that make the game not as compelling as it could have been.
