What players say

68% of 118,323 reviews are positive · 61% of 674 in the last 30 days

Players consistently praise the directional combat system, especially parrying, deflecting, and its depth. Common complaints describe a toxic community, a steep entry barrier for newcomers, cheating, and poor hero balance. Recent negative reviews also object to the removal of Linux and Steam Deck support following an anti-cheat change.
