Dec 21, 2017A simply great metroid-vania game with a sci-fi adaptation. One of my personal favorites for the Vita. This is how I imagine developers wanted platformers to be during the 16-bit era of gaming. Everything in the game feels super smooth and weighted just right. A must buy for an Vita owner. What are you waiting for?

There are so many clever mechanics in this game. Beautiful surreal art. And the music is fantastic

Apr 21, 2016Axiom Verge on Vita is the same great game as it was on PS4 and Steam. But it doesn't perform as well or control as well, and for a game as finely tuned as this, those minor hitches make this a less-than-ideal format for experiencing the game. Thankfully, Sony's cross-buy means that anyone who picks up the game on Vita also has access to the PS4 version, but that doesn't make the imperfections of this port any less disappointing. Axiom Verge and Vita should be a marriage made in heaven, but in the end I just found myself wishing mom and dad would stop fighting. The game remains as great as ever, but subtract a point from the score if you're playing on Vita.

Apr 21, 2016It spends too much time recreating the genius of Metroid rather than adding to it, but this is still one of the best examples of the genre in recent years.

Apr 19, 2016Axiom Verge is an artistic triumph with some minor issues that hold the PlayStation Vita version back a little. However, fantastic music, visuals, and truly original gameplay mechanics put it a cut above other games of it's genre.
