Deft twin-stick control and power-ups are the only way to survive, as you shoot your way through room after room in this never-ending dystopian maze. And don't forget, Evil Otto may have a smile on his face, but he is deadly and invincible.

    As with all Recharged games, you can chase a high score in arcade mode, or take on one of the many challenges the design team has hand-crafted to test your shooting and dodging skills. If things get too hard, you can always grab a friend to double your firepower in local co-op.    … Expand

    Whether it be because Berzerk: Recharged feels fresher than the rest, or whether it is because of the random nature it brings, we feel this is in the upper echelons of all the Recharged games that Atari have pushed out.

    Berzerk: Recharged is a fun 80s rework that will appease its fans. I love the vibrant colour palette and the claustrophobic level design. Furthermore, the action is easy to master. However, a lack of missions was disappointing and this differs from other Recharged titles.

    The mechanics of Berzerk: Recharged are excellent and I can’t fault it. Dowside comes when you’ve played a few levels, they are more or less the same. While playing I was reminded how this would be a wonderful 90’s arcade cabinet game and have everyone queueing up to play. But for a modern-day console game, it does hit all the right shots. Co-op was fun and made the game more palatable.

    It's a fun game, but I feel like I've played it before. I guess I'm tired of recycling the Recharged concept, where every game is basically the same. I want new ideas, fresh concepts and fun innovations that highlight good gameplay.

    If Berzerk were part of a collection of arcade games so that you could enjoy it in short bursts with a variety of other games it would be fine. However, there’s just not enough here to support a standalone release.
