This game is utter rubbish. The fights are terribly imbalanced and all of your characters attacks leave you open to attack. Your attacks barely cause the enemy to flinch, while their attacks leave you stunned. I wanted to like this game, but I can't. The enemies never stop attacking and you get constantly swarmed. Even with leveling up and putting points into their abilities I didn't notice much of a difference. I …

It's not absolutely amazing, but it has a charm that kept me playing way longer than I expected. Just from exploring and doing side quests I've acquired at least 30 unique costumes, this doesn't seem to be even half of them. Not to mention any character can equip them. Most other publishers would put less costumes than this behind a $30 season pass at minimum. As far as licensed anime games go, this is definitely …

Mandatory premise: I've never read or watched anything from Hiro Mashima EDENS ZERO feels like a cozy mid 2010's anime RPG, it's not a technical masterpiece but the characters are interesting and the story is very enjoyable so far. The combat system is real-time action, it's not complicated but it's satisfying nonetheless. If you're a fan or if you like anime-based games you'll probably enjoy it. I'll probably start …

I've never watched Eden's ZERO nor know anything about it. I decided to try this game out of simply curiosity and damn I am having a blast. I read reviews of people saying the combat is bland but it isn't at all, it's actually quite fun, even though if it's simple at the start. You can chain moves by switching mid combo, and hell you even get new moves as you gradually level up. I certainly am gonna watch the anime …

Summarised from 34 of the 136 public posts collected about this game; every point cites the posts behind it ([n] opens the post) and the split is counted from the posts’ own ratings. Updated Oct 13, 2026. How summaries are made
87% of the 67 Steam reviewers we collected recommend EDENS ZERO. The complaint that keeps coming up: combat feels stiff with damage sponge enemies and no stun. Deal-breaker or nitpick?

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As much of a fan of Eden zero that i am, i cannot with good conscience recommend this game. It skips alot of important story parts in the cutscenes (which i assume to save time and developpement cost) The combat is stiffer than anything i've ever played. People said the combat got better once you get more skills unlocked, which is true to a certain point, but the lack of any stun on ennemies makes it hard to combo at all, mixed in with the fact everything you're hit by stuns you. This…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Edens Zero has around 90 something reviews at the time I'm writing this. It dropped out of nowhere without much fanfare. I'm glad I was paying attention at that fleeting moment because it's everything I wanted from a mixture of One Piece, Phantasy Star, Star Ocean, Borderlands, and Guardians Of The Galaxy! If you can dig action rpgs with beat em up fundamentals, shounen super powers, the ability to freely fly around like Superman, and main quests tailored around sincerely getting to know every…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly what really turned me off the most is the damage sponge enemies. Really kills the fun factor tbh, rather have fought 2 or 3 times more enemies. With less health which would have made the combat flow alot better. Making me feel like I'm actually killing something instead feeling like I'm constantly hitting punching bags. Takes even powerful AOE spells 7 or 8 times to kill grunts. Complete with a few second casting animation. Feels like BS. Along with being locked in the animation.…

neutral · AI labelView post →Honestly it's a halfway decent game but, the price point is wayyy to high. Frame rate issues on a modern PC with these graphics is insane. The combat can get SLIGHTLY more in depth but, overall not enjoyable at all. The movement in combat feels wacky. The way the camera works feels like Pirate Warriors 3 on PC (Which is one of the worst cameras to this day). If it ever drops down to $20 or $30 probably would picking up if you enjoyed games like Kakarot but, with less customization for skills.…

I'm not a fan of Fairy Tail and Edens Zero, but I enjoy japenese games and prefer them over western in last 8 years. Also I very much respect many mangakas, including, of course, Hiro Mashima for his unique approcach to mashing up all the popular tropes and making out of it a pretty decent world and characters with engaging stories despite of bit of toddlerness in it. The gameplay of Edens Zero…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In July, Konami is releasing an action RPG based on the shonen anime series 'Edens Zero'. Nobody at RPG Site knows anything about this show, so, who wants to review the game for us?
neutral · AI labelView post →This game was enjoyable, but the story feels incomplete, ending abruptly halfway through. I understand the developers may have been limited by the source material, but that doesn't excuse the lack of resolution on key plot points, like the promise to meet a certain character. It's frustrating when a game sets up an intriguing story hook and then fails to deliver. The developers could have expanded the narrative, even if it meant making it non-canonical, to provide more satisfaction for…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The translation has so many errors. Most of the story is fine, but the side quests are littered with misgendering or incorrect translations. Japanese is incredibly contextual, and the translations tend to ignore the context (hence the constant misgendering, like calling Pino "he" or Weisz "Mrs.," or just absolute nonsense like Shiki saying he wants to be a grandfather instead of being like his grandfather). They mess up tenses, and use words like "say less," which would be fine if more of the…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What can I say, was just coming off finishing AC Shadows on PS5 when I just wanted a side game to play once in a while but not my main game. That's what I thought anyways, well it turns out this is a really good, niche, weird, addictive japanese anime game, one of the first to actually make me want to watch the series. Game offers a story mode (main game mode) and an exploration mode to level and do side quests for money and mats. I would say the game is about thirty hours for the main story…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Almost 30 hours in, I have been enjoying this game. Favorite parts of this game ais the Universe, open world, Character Customization, skill tree, its uncensored and giggle effects. Its not a perfect game but I am hoping that since its new the devs will release updates to polish this game. Open world could use some work like making the npc's more lively. Combat should be increased in power, some battles can be frustrating and slow. Leveling up it painful and slow. I love seing the EZ characters…

What I Played: Spent around 15 hours exploring different planets, battling enemies, and uncovering secrets in this space-faring RPG. The Good: The variety of playable characters adds depth to combat and keeps things interesting. The storyline is engaging, with plenty of twists and surprises to keep you hooked. The Bad: The background music in some areas can get repetitive and dull over time. Some minor bugs here and there…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It feels like a classic JRPG with action combat, take note the combat will start extremely slow and dull first. Once you've unlocked specific talents the gameplay improves overtime (which is quite normal). It's one of the most fun games of this year but it still has a bunch of problems. Pro: -Fun combat later on -Almost identical to the manga/anime (except a few scenes) -Good humor -Great characters (Amira & Homura are the best) -Tons of equip and transmogs -Nice world but some…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is much bigger than I expected. The presentation is great, the music is fantastic. There's a lot for you to do, and while some of the open world is a little barren, it serves its purpose of giving you a playground to do quests in between story missions. Combat is fine, it's pretty varied once you have more skills unlocked. But enemies always feel like damage sponges. So while it's serviceable, it won't be the reason you play. Equipment customization is fantastic though. There's a lot…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Decent 7/10 Animu game. I have never watched or read Edens Zero, and this game is retelling of the story. It was fine for what it was small arena fight RPG, you have gear, special moves and stuff like that. If you only play story you can beat in about 12 hours if you play sidequest is is really long since there are powerful bosses and collectable stuff. I liked it was was fun while it lasted. Anime will save the universe.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Finished Eden Zero, The Game Adapts the 2 seasons of the Anime and doesn’t go beyond that which kinda makes it disappointing since you only acquired like half of the skills that is available to you and it feels like you only played half of the experience when you get to Draken Joe and that’s it for the main story content where it’s only 10 Chapters in Game, And the experience is very dependent on how much you enjoy Hiro Mashima Work since personally for me I vastly prefer Rave Master over Fairy…

The Trial demo in June was lovely and I enjoyed playing it, this truly is a more open world version of the Edens Zero Mobile game which released in February of 2022 which I also enjoyed along with the PC point and click adventure. I happily preordered the deluxe edition in April for the early access starting on July 12th and I have been having a blast and I am over 75 percent of the way through the game. I have been waiting for this game ever since…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Apparently this game just appeared without any hype or marketing. Everything is a little rough around the edges and it strikes me as a game that either had a low budget or shipped early. That said... I'm enjoying it. It has the same good vibes of the anime. They've split the game into two sections. First is story mode which follows the anime/manga in episodic fashion. Then there's exploration mode which takes place around Blue Garden. You can switch between them outside of story missions and…

Pros decent amount of content so far stays decently true to the story of the show. thats about it if you can get it on sale its worth it otherwise id wait cons combat is kind of boring (very repetitive even with different skills enemies are sponges and you cant dodge while doing combos which is the only way to do decent damage) performance issues (9800x3d 5080, i get 240FPS max settings inside and when not fighting, drops to as low as 120-80…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game. Doubly so if you are a fan of Hiro Mashima's works. Combat is what I would call “mini-musou”, kinda similar to Senran Kagura games. There does seem to be a bit of weird balance with optional bosses, where lower level ones can often be more beefy than higher level ones, it doesn’t really pose any actual difficulty, but can get annoying to keep whittling on their health. It’s still fun and you can “zone out” on the grind in the style of Musou games. Graphics are a bit outdated,…

As others mentioned it is not going to win a graphics award, but the characters look good, story is fun (especially if you have read the manga or seen the anime) and seems to be a good bit to do. The combat picks up as you learn some moves and get used to swapping between characters to utilize their abilities, so know that it gets better than what is shown in the demo. If it looks interesting to you try the Demo. If you like the Demo get it for sure…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game, even with some flaws here and there, shows a lot of passion and love for the source material, if you like Edens Zero then the game is a must. The good stuff: - Each character has their own "gimmick" that keeps the combat fresh. - Lots of costumes! You can even customize up to 5 on each character with the options of changing the colors of each part of it and even add some accessories. - The developers have done an excellent job on recreating Hiro Mashima's work, from the models…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Good: The story is a bit slow and confusing to start, but it does move along after the demo part is done. The characters are all enjoyable so far and there is wholesome kindness, perverted antics, and parts that will make you laugh. On a whole the combat is pretty fun, and can use the insta-swap character mechanic to beat the crap of out your opponents with power combos, it is a good time! There seems to be plenty to do with mini-games, costumes to collect and max out, cooking…

The combat system and plot are simple, and importantly, the entire experience is based on the anime of the same name. The game offers a wide range of characters to choose from, but unfortunately, they're not entirely well-balanced, and that's where the problem arises: some are simply weak and not as effective as others, or some are simply too strong. Generally, it's best to choose a few strong characters and…
