What players say
87% of 19,805 reviews are positive · 76% of 117 in the last 30 days
Players praise the over-the-top 1980s action-movie parody, synth soundtrack, humor, and gunplay. The dominant complaint is Ubisoft Connect and failed server checks: recent players report that the game may not launch, while others face long connection delays whenever they open the menu; some also report buggy achievements.
