Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth

A fun mix of a variety of different game types and a must have for any fans of Digimon. Even if you're not too into it the story is fun and the mechanics are extremely well done.

Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Complete Edition is a content-packed RPG with plenty to see and do. Its evolution system feels wholly unique when compared to another monster-breeding game series you might find on Nintendo hardware, and while the grind may be too much for some, it’s comfortably one of the best creature-catchers on the Switch – although Pokémon still holds the crown, of course.

While the West may have been skipped over for much of the last decade with Digimon games, fans can rejoice over Bandai Namco's choice to localize Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth, as they will find plenty of reasons to love this game with its nearly 250 different Digimon available.

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth is a fun well-executed modern game for Digimon fans and JRPGs alike.

Considering there’s over 240 Digimon in the game it’d be insane to think you’d have to amass that collection by only using the Digimon in your party so that’s where your digi-farm comes into play. While you’re out working your way through digital dungeons, any Digimon not in your party can be placed in one of your various farms which can house ten Digimon each. Here your Digimon will level up on t...

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth plays it safe in a lot of ways, but for many of you out there, that’s going to be perfectly fine. Just don’t expect it to convert you if you’re sworn off the formula.

Whether a returning fan or simply someone looking for a new roleplaying game to play, Cyber Sleuth caters to both parties. Although those familiar with the brand stand to gain more from this recent revival of the series, the gameplay systems are accessible for just about anyone. Still, despite its overall fun factor, Digimon Story isn’t exactly innovative, while also being hamstrung by a few niggl...

It's been a while since the last Digimon RPG was released in the West, but a new one has turned up in Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth. RPGamer investigates what the game has to offer.

An easy recommendation for those who watched the anime back in the day and those who have kept up with the series.

That said, once you’ve managed to understand the process of Conversion, Digivolution and devolution, training your Digimon to their Ultimate forms can be incredibly rewarding. Seeing your old favourites in all their modern 3D glory is wonderful. It’s a shame that the story takes so long to become engaging, especially since the title itself places such importance on the story, but if you think you’...

That humorous core — buoyed by the Digivolution mechanic and memorable characters — is the game's best feature, and one that always comes as a surprise. The jokes make traversing that dungeon for the umpteenth time a little less taxing, and elevate the game from standard creature battler to a memorable adventure. Cyber Sleuth varies wildly from dreadful stopgap fetch quests to mesmerizing bosses a...

When I was in my formative years, the biggest discussion on the playground was Digimon VS Pokémon. Fast forward to the present day and we’re all well aware that Pokémon came out on top, with the name being globally famous and Pikachu’s face being about as recognizable as a certain Disney mouse’s ears. But Digimon didn’t go away – if Cyber Sleuth is to be believed, Digimon moved away from being the...
