Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition

This 20th-anniversary edition of Beyond Good & Evil dodges that trap by being genuinely entertaining, playable and polished over its relatively short running time. Maybe it’s the banter between Jade and Pey’j, perhaps it’s the restless diversity of its levels, or could it be just that Ancel packed his designs with myriad lovely touches.

Beyond Good & Evil is an absolute classic, and the 20th Anniversary Edition makes it easier than ever to appreciate why. The characters are endearing, the visuals are mostly amazing, the music is incredible, and the gameplay is a ton of fun on top of all that. If this is your first time stepping into Jade’s sneakers or your 20th, now has never been a better time to explore the beauty of Hillys.

Beyond Good & Evil remaster truly shows how much potential this franchise has, and doubles down on the need for Ubisoft to give the series the credit it deserves finally.

Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition is a real treat regardless of whether you’ve played the original release or not. The 2003 game’s visuals have received a gorgeous glow-up with improved textures, shadows, and lighting, and there’s a surprising amount of new content from unlockable cosmetics to an entirely new questline. This is simply one of the best remastering efforts we’ve seen in years and comes highly recommended at its sub-$20 / £20 price.

A bona fide classic remastered with love and care. This edition brings smooth visuals, a beautifully recreated musical score, and well-presented supplemental materials. It certainly shows its age, but like all great art, Beyond Good & Evil weathers the test of time with grace.

Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition is far from perfect, but it's an honest remaster. Yes, the game has aged, but its charm still works today. A game to discover and rediscover, despite the new version's even more striking flaws.

Beyond Good and Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition misses the opportunity to update dated mechanics and deliver a more satisfying experience for a new audience. It gives the impression of being a rushed launch, just to remember that the brand still exists in the Ubisoft catalog.

A classic from my childhood, delivering a great story in a beautiful world full of character. Its story driven linear pacing is a breath of fresh air compared to some of today's open worlds : every facet of this game is intentional, none can be considered filler. The world is coherent and beautifully crafted, music and ambiance are very well made, leading to a great 10 to 15 hours of gameplay until the story's resolution.

A game so good they remastered it twice. 10/10

Uno de losjuegos favoritosde mi infancia ydespuésde tanto tiempo esperando me alegra verle por 20€ y no por 60 como suele pasar con algunos remakes. Tienealgúnproblema como poner el Ubisoft Connect en el triángulo que a veces lo abres sin querer pero no lo considero fallo del juego.

The game may have updated graphics and controls, but a lot of the time it is more frustrating than fun. It feels outdated and awkward.

The game is good. Ok, the camera is bad and the movement too. But it‘s an old game. One problem is Ubisoft Connect. You need to press triangle in combat etc. And sometimes Ubisoft Connect shows achievements there the triangle button is catched to open the fkng boring Ubisoft Connect overlay. And why additional achievements when PSN already have it? Why Ubisoft, why? You always annoy the customers. And you wonder for bad reviews?
