NEO: The World Ends with You Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Almost perfect if not for the nitty-gritty. If it’s quite there but not enough to push the boundaries, it’s still an awesome game.
Touch controls were everywhere on the Nintendo DS, but no one made them work like Square Enix. Don’t get me wrong, you could find other good, even great touch
Often, games pack so many characters, storylines, and mechanics into the experience that the end result ends up being a bloated mess. Occasionally, there are games that strip everything back and stick to a strict minimalist style and set the world on fire.

NEO: The World Ends With You is a wonderfully fun game that pleases the eyes, as well as the Steam Deck!
NEO: The World Ends With You is a unique and colorful action RPG that packs a fun combat system. While it's certainly not for everyone, those drawn to its stylish vibe will absolutely love it.
Fans and newcomers alike are going to be enthralled by NEO: The World Ends with You, that rare belated follow up to a beloved cult classic that manages to live up to, and even exceed, the original.
NEO: The World Ends with You is a sequel worth waiting for. It brings together many of the best concepts from the DS original but in a more approachable and accessible experience. It may lack the lightning-in-a-bottle genius of its predecessor, but the 40+ hours I spent exploring Shibuya showed me this world doesn’t have to be complicated to be worthwhile.
NEO: The World Ends With You lacks everything you would expect from a PC port, such as mouse support or useful graphics options. While the game itself is incredible, unless you desperately need the maximum resolution and framerate you’re better off sticking with the console versions.
Neo: The World Ends with You is filled to the brim with style and charm, but actually playing the game can get tedious sometimes.
NEO TWEWY is an eccentric action-RPG with an endearing youthful attitude, though its narrative lulls can obstruct its best moments.
New enemies, familiar allies, and a cataclysmic threat come together in this surprising and enjoyable follow up.
