  • Abstract:  To be totally honest, there arent too many games out there that strike us as truly unique anymore. Director Suda 51 has done some great work on GCN and Wii with Killer 7 and No More Heroes respectively, and the style change that went into the creation...

  • Abstract:  A world beyond comprehension CHARLES HEROLD New York Times May 8, 2008 at 3:10 PM EDT Neku Sakuraba hates his life. The 15-year-old hates the crowded city, hates people, and in the beginning of The World Ends With You finds something new to hate: a cel...

  • Abstract:  Its easy to be cynical about a game trying so desperately hard to be cool. The trendy Shibuya (Tokyo) setting, the stylish teen characters, the fantastic visuals and music, and the use of clothing brands and mobile phones are all deliberately aimed a...

  • Features a ton of content and things to do. Nomuras art style and the music work together well
  • The battle system is overwhelming at first. Stylus input isnt particularly precise The Final Word The World Ends With You is another winner for Square-Enix

  Published: 2018-10-11, Author: Jordan , review by: trustedreviews.com

  • Visuals shine on Switch thanks to a HD upgrade, Characters and world are wonderfully written, Fun, challenging battle system, Exploring Shibuya is an otherworldly joy
  • Docked Mode controls are a bit of a mess, You'll need to work to see new content
  • The World Ends With You Remix is always surprising, always challenging and always willing to ask the player to think outside of JRPG conventions they might have grown accustomed to. Granted, the art direction, once considered groundbreaking in 2007, now f...

  Published: 2018-10-10, Author: Steven , review by: in.ign.com

  • Because of the Switch's two modes, The World Ends With You: Final Remix is simultaneously a good port and a bad one. Using handheld mode and touchscreen controls, Final Remix holds up as a great JRPG with tons of depth. It packs all the flair and charm se...
