The PC edition is a different narrative
One of the key launches on Xbox this week is BLEACH Rebirth of Souls. While we’ve only managed to secure one expert review so far (Game8 rated it 78/100), early players have clearly been expressing their opinions.
The encouraging news is that on the Xbox Store, the vast majority of users are awarding BLEACH Rebirth of Souls a 5/5 rating at this moment – it currently boasts an average of 4.7 based on 76 reviews for the US version of the Xbox Store.
Here’s what a few gamers have shared about it:
Azrael008uk: “While many publishers have been crafting games for ‘The Mainstream Audience,’ these developers created one ‘For The Fans.’ Complete English Dub, Engaging Story Mode, Extensive Roster, Excellent Gameplay, and Solid Tutorials. Fantastic to have this on Xbox!”
EthanWilliZZ: “I haven’t experienced this level of enjoyment in an anime fighting game since Ninja Storm… The controls aren’t overly complex; it’s just the typical learning curve of figuring out what does what, plus the soundtracks are exceptional (I wonder if the fullbringers will be added).”
However, some players have pointed out that the combat feels clumsy and the graphics are not impressive:
As previously noted, it’s primarily the PC version of BLEACH Rebirth of Souls that’s attracted significant controversy so far, with players encountering numerous issues that caused the Steam rating to plummet to a mere “Mixed” average upon launch.
This is certainly not the situation on Xbox, so if you find yourself curious about the game and want to experience it firsthand, it’s available now for £54.99 / $59.99. We’ll include more details about it below.
