The collaboration between Nintendo and Platinum Games has been going strong for a few years, and it has brought some of the best games ever developed by the Japanese studio such as The Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2. For this reason, many are eagerly anticipating Astral Chain, and early footage looked incredibly promising, with the elements from their older games masterfully meshed together in an explosive mix. And five hours into the game, I can say that Astral Chain is going beyond my expectations (which were pretty high, to begin with).
Everything in Astral Chain feels extremely polished, from the story, which features humanity’s battle against mysterious beings coming from another dimension to the presentation and gameplay mechanics. The overall presentation impressed me considerably, as it makes the whole game feel like an anime. The fact that Masakazu Katsura worked as the main artist on the game definitely helped.
