    Gungrave has an eventful and largely glorious history. G.O.R.E. is a technical retread, from which you shouldn't expect too many surprises in terms of story - as well as gameplay. But that doesn't have to be a bad thing, especially since the fans know what they're being offered here: spectacular over-the-top action with hail of bullets and explosions foreman non-stop. That's exactly what we came for.

    This is a proudly old-fashioned game that, at least, feels different from all the current action games.

    Gungrave G.O.R.E is a thorough examination of what games offered us before they transformed into 40-hour cinematic masterpieces. While its appeal may not be broad enough to interest everyone, it establishes itself as a love letter to a time when your gaming experience was absolutely about bombastic style, personal fantasy and massive high scores.

    There’s always more blood on the horizon, making Gungrave G.O.R.E. feel like a break-neck romp with little room to move or breathe along the way. While dotted with moments of joy and violent freedom, the action of the game quickly devolves to repetition – making it a largely enjoyable romp, but one that only rarely makes a meaningful impact.

    The gameplay of Gungrave G.O.R.E is very cool in itself because of its brutal and unrelenting action, which is improved up by a delightful soundtrack. In the game, you are simply a bad-ass and that feels good. Were it not for the fact that the game suffers from difficulty spikes, a lack in enemy variations and inconsistent level design that can get on your nerves considerably. Potentially a very cool game, although it loses some momentum as you progress.

    Gungrave Gore is repetitive, there’s no question about that, but like most arcade games – racers, sports, shmups – there can be great enjoyment to be had from something so fully of itself. Gungrave is Gungrave, and if you play it, you’ll know exactly what I mean. Whether its simplistic, repetitive nature will appeal for the price you pay is another question. Maybe wait for the inevitable discounts – or just play it on Game Pass.

    I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the bulk of Gungrave was developed in the mid-noughties, because despite the passably-AA-of-late-PS3-era graphics, it’s practically identical to its predecessors, both in terms of gameplay and level design. And to be kind to the earlier entries in the franchise, they were verging on unwieldy 20 years ago. Basically, nothing has changed between them, save a graphical overhaul.

    The game rests on two iron pillars, the first thing you can see is how the developers loved Gungrave and tried to invest every cent in the game despite the average budget. The second is the gameplay itself and the combat system is a child's dream, because the Bible Epic is happening on the screen.
    The player seems to be dancing with weapons, two pistols, almost like Dante's, and his huge coffin on his back, allow the player to create complete chaos on the screen, because there are a lot of ranged attacks and it all looks mega spectacular and epic.
    The 2002 Gungrave anime is still remembered with warmth in my heart, as is the Ps2 game, and I was very surprised that G.O.R.E was associated with previous Gungrave works, thanks a lot to the developers for loving this iconic character and really looking forward to continuing the new one G.O.R.E, because the game is super and there are no direct analogues on the video game market right now.

    Motion like PS2.

    Gimmicks like Resident Evil 4.
    I can't believe it's a 2022 game.
    The character's face is also weird.
    I'm a Gungrave fan.
    However, I can only think of this as an indie game, not a sequel.
    The stylish part of Gungrave is missing.
    It seems to me that the character's personality has also changed.
    When I thought Gungrave was back, it was another piece of garbage.
    I will never buy anything from this developer again.
    Trust is gone.
    I am very angry that my favorite series was betrayed by this game.    … Expand
