Global score61 / 100from 8 sources
How is this score calculated?
The global score counts every source that has published a review of this game.
When a source gave its own numeric score, that score wins over its verdict when this score is calculated: it is normalised to a 0-100 scale first, so a 7/10 counts as 70. Without one, the number for its verdict from the table below is used instead.
What each verdict is worth
- Must play: 100
- Recommended: 85
- Recommended with reservations: 70
- Only for fans: 45
- Not recommended: 20
This table is app configuration, and it can be adjusted.
A source that has reviewed this game more than once still counts once: its reviews are averaged together before entering the global score.
Not having a score is not the same as scoring zero: it means there is no review counting towards it yet.
Only the sources we have a review from are listed. A source missing here is one we have no review from for this game — not proof that it said nothing about it, and not a verdict against it.

What they criticise
- Recommended with reservationsTheir own score: 6 / 10Reviewed in English
- Recommended for
- Players who prioritize character-driven storytelling and emotional narratives, particularly those who enjoyed Insomniac's other superhero games for their story and character work rather than gameplay variety.
- With these reservations
- Combat mechanics grow repetitive and lack sufficient progression mechanics to maintain engagement across the 15-hour campaign. Level design plays it safe with similar arena-based encounters, and most supporting characters are underdeveloped. Not worth the full launch price.
