GamingBolt
Phenomenal retro-style presentation with seamless animations and detailed portraits
Extraordinarily responsive controls and tight combat loop with Hypercharged Strikes and Guillotine Boost seamlessly slotting in with the traditional side-scrolling formula
Great boss fights
Excellent soundtrack
Base difficulty doesn't feel as oppressive as the older games (though there are modifiers to increase the challenge)
Some levels have their share of repetitive elements
Certain side areas could also be more unique

Generación Xbox
It feels fresh and very addictive.
The return to the origins of the saga in 2D
A character management that feels like silk
A pixel-art style overflowing with charisma in every corner.
The bosses are a real challenge and the ultimate proof of your skills.
It's difficult, but there is an accessibility option that will help players.
At times, during the Kumori phases, the game would crash.
Despite its ease of access, this can be frustrating for less experienced individuals.

Impeccable handling
Epic boss battles
Electrifying music that tastefully accompanies the staging.
Secrets and scoring, the recipe for a beautiful replayability
Difficult mode carefully considered in its entirety
Ornamentation on the optional challenges to be met
Substantial equipment... but clearly unbalanced
Maybe a tad short in a straight line

Absolutely perfect and responsive controls
Dual Kenji/Kumori perfectly integrated
Level design that rewards mastery
Visual section that honors the past and embraces the present
Balanced difficulty between challenge and accessibility
Narrative that respects the heritage
Some mechanics could be better explained.
A cooperative mode would have been interesting.
Some elements could have a greater mechanical impact.

Pizza Fria
Excellent combat system, simple yet rewarding.
Excellent design at a high level, with a good variety.
Fully customizable and fair challenge (if you die, it's entirely your fault)
The soundtrack and artistic style perfectly complement the gameplay.
The fights against most bosses are uncreative and tiring.

Nintendo Life
Beautiful through and through, with impressively crafted boss battles
Clever stage design is perfectly married to taut combat mechanics
Feels great to either work through leisurely and even better to totally master
Frame rate doesn't hold 30fps on Switch 1, disappointing in a game about fluidity
Some of the cutscene art is (rarely) somewhat amateurish
