Sep 26, 2019When it comes to 2D action games, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more satisfying experience than Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX. From its spot-on presentation to its high-octane action, it's a prime example of 2D action done right.
-
Oct 7, 2019Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX was absolutely grand. While the game is somewhat on the shorter side, various gameplay improvements made this one the best in the series. It is clear that the developers focused on swiftness and getting to the cool stuff as soon as possible. The game flows well as a result, encouraging you to go back and improve your performance in certain stages. The level design and gameplay mechanics make for a very sharp 8.5 hours.

Nintendo Force MagazineApr 29, 2020A great game, even if the difficulty feels a little lopsided. [Issue #43 – November/December 2019, p. 22SW]

Sep 26, 2019Luminous Avenger distills so much of what made the series pop in the first place that it's also worth investing in.
-
Sep 27, 2019The series is steadily moving forward with the latest installment being the best yet by keeping the same unique gameplay and improving other aspects of the experience.

Sep 26, 2019What we have here is a thoroughly enjoyable and rewarding action platformer which lives up to the quality as expected from the studio. Its minor quibbles do little to tarnish what is a charming game and all-round rewarding experience. The ride does end a little too quickly and veterans of the genre may desire a bit more of a challenge, but on the whole this is a great little game which confirms the studio as being perhaps the best in their field.

Dec 19, 2019A curious example of a title being both more refined, but also less good than its predecessor. The action is smoother, better, and overall much more engaging. Purely as a platformer it is great fun, can be picked up cheap, and is only marred by simplistic, one-way levels and its short length. As an entry it is inferior to its predecessor with the removal of various gear, crafting, and challenges, making it a one-trick pony. It's awesome, but it doesn't have the magic the previous one did. Copen, one of the cooler characters in recent history, lacks much of his style that was memorable in previous games. This series is one of the coolest in recent times, and while this does not disappoint, it doesn't live up to how absolutely great it could be.

Sep 26, 2019An evolution of Copen's gameplay in ASG2 and by God is it good. Playing the first two games isn't a necessity, but is highly recommended.
