I went in for Zelda lore; I stayed up way too late for the fights

TL;DR

  • Crisp, readable combat that focuses on elite duels over pure fodder-clearing
  • Murmurs and Soneau artifacts push you to rotate heroes and speed up guard breaks
  • Sync Actions in co-op are a riot—timing them together never gets old
  • Story is canon but sparse; satisfying ending, little in the way of new lore
  • 30fps cap holds docked; handheld and co-op see dips during chaos; camera still fussy near walls
  • Bestiary is limited and 1v1 depth tops out early, but the loop stays addictive
  • Great fit for Musou fans and Zelda players who want action-forward co-op in that world
