Eyes of Heaven offers a wacky story with plenty of varying dialogue that will bring in even the most casual Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, but the gameplay is average at best that doesn't offer much substance other than making sure the button mashes connect before the opponent's does. Fans of the anime will appreciate this game, but the casual gamer will not get much out of this title.

Those unfamiliar with Jojo are likely to be bewildered playing Eyes of Heaven; the game pulls no punches in declaring its priorities with its thick layer of fanservice, pleasing only those who've read far into the series' three decade long run. It's an unfortunate misgiving to newcomers, but for fans, it's unequivocal bliss.

In the end, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven can be divisive. The new fighting system is fine, but the lack of depth in moves, a few cumbersome commands, and bad camera make it less fun to work with than the previous title.

The success of this anime is largely due to its original style, which has become a real source of memes. Although the plot is quite simple, it will not surprise you with unexpected twists, but the characters and the surrounding world are really impressive. Each hero has their own uniqueness and charisma, which makes them memorable and fascinating for the viewers. In addition, the music and animation are top notch, which adds to the atmosphere and makes each battle exciting. And, of course, we can't forget to mention the iconic "stands" that add an element of strategy and uniqueness to the battles. So, despite the average plot, watching this anime brings a lot of pleasure due to its bright style. After watching the anime, I started reading the manga, and I really liked it. It reveals even more details and nuances that make the story even more exciting. I give it a solid eight!

Good arena fighter, almost have this game's platinum trophy, However this game does have its issues, the main issue for me is the almost 'stereotypical fan-fiction' like story for their story mode. Overall it's an amazing game with good mechanics and good fighters (except for Johnny Joestar) I usually play as Jonathan Joestar from Part 1 and Josuke Higashikata from Part 4.

6 or 7 is pretty fair. The game isn't bad. It's fine. Some of the CPUs are jank af and ngl I barely paid attention to the story. The game was a fun platinum to get . Would've liked a way to see the Jojolity stuff tho.

I love this game. The good combos, paired with the fun mechanics, mwah. The storyline that always keeps you on the edge of your seat. The vast character pool, this game is amazing.

Eyes of Heaven tries perhaps too hard to translate the bizarre dynamics of the original work into a chaotic brawler which is kinda fun but also very frustrating to play. With no training mode or competitive/cooperative local play, you are stuck to a long story mode with tons of goodies to unlock.

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven isn’t going to send a ripple through the video game community, but it was never intended to. As a simple little love letter to fans, it succeeds despite taking its faults and the lofty requisites to truly treasure it.

Doesn’t mean I think it’s worth a full price tag purchase, but fans of the Joestars should find enjoyment in it. Everybody else, consult and test with your Bizarre Adventure-loving friend before dropping any coin on Eyes of Heaven.

Fun for a few bouts now and then, this is a brawler that doesn't quite do the original work justice - even if its nicely crafted story mode will keep fans entertained for at least a few hours.

The dialogue, merely filler between bouts, is more entertaining than the combat that's meant to be the game's focus.

Fun game, stays true to the IP in being very gay. Recommend for any jojo fans.

It's a niche little experience. It's fun seeing characters from past, "present" (given how this stems from Part 3), future, and entirely alternate realities interact with each other, as well as all the cool details that can happen depending on your team combination and the stage itself. Though the downside being that really no matter whether your playing Jonathan, Joseph, Jotaro, Johnny, or Koichi, just to name a few who are all unique in their own way, the gameplay feels quite repetitive, it also feels rather unfair that if you, the player, die at any given moment, even if your AI partner is alive, the match is immediately lost.

Honestly, the gameplay is good, but it's annoying that you can't play with two controllers, in this type of game it must be indisputable

Eyes of heaven is a failed fanservice game and also just a objectively bad fighting game. This is the ost generic playing fighting game i've probably have ever played. It does nothing new and the amount of annoying exploits in this game is downright embarrassing. The story is really bad as well it's so boring and repetitive and predictable. The only thing this game has going for it is playing as your beloved anime/manga heroes from jojo which is the main appeal of the game but it can't even succeed in that because the character designs in th game look awful compared to how they actually look in the source material and some of the character's movesets are so boring so you can't really be as cool as how the characters are in the anime/manga. And dear god don't get me started with the online. It really speaks for itself it is a laggy mess and lacking in any actual players to even play with. Geez this eyes of heaven had so much potential but it missed the mark so easily it's frustrating.
SummaryFeaturing a new two-on-two battle system, larger arenas, more characters, all the DLC previously released in Japan, and a new scenario from Hirohiko Araki’s epic series, get ready to experience the House of Joestar like never before.
