This game isn't nearly as polished or robust as some other hack and slash/territory control games of this type but it's still alright.

Yes this is a Dynasty Warriors type of game similar to Hyrule Warriors/ Fire Emblem Warriors. This game is much faster paced and I actually like the faster gameplay but the enemy types are very similar and kind of boring but overall fun for a Warriors type of game.

Having the PS4 version, I didn't hesitate to pick this up for Switch. I have yet to play it in docked mode to compare with Sonys machine. Visual differences are to be expected but the game runs well in handheld. I was hard pressed to find any difference in visuals. It looks just as good and performs the same from what I've played. If your into hack in slash games and are into the anime it draw from then give this game a look.

This is a Dynasty Warriors game with the perks being locked behind the Bond system. This game is meant to be played in short sessions with its main story being average. Its still a fun game to finish through. Completing it however becomes tedious so be aware of that.

If you're a fan of the fate series, you'll enjoy the dynasty warriors type style of this game. However, other than that, this won't bring new fans unless you like taking down lots of enemies at once. Other than that, the game can start to feel pretty repetitive.

The price is steep but thankfully I have gamers club unlocked. But the frame rate issue and price for someone who doesn't have the gamers club unlocked, might as well get the PlayStation 4 Pro enhanced version as it plays way better and is $10 cheaper and can support 4K

It’s a great game for someone trying to start into the series. Gameplay is decent and there is some frame rate drop during handheld mode on the switch. However while docked on the switch it has very good picture and framerate is constant.

Very long narrative. You'll spend more time reading then playing but the game is fun. The story interesting and the controls responsive. I don't see this game being for everyone but it's rewarding and the customization is nice

I heard it was like dynasty warriors which to a degree it is. However, a lot of it plays like I'm reading a story with walls of text being thrown at you. If that is the type of game you enjoy, then go and get this game.

I was surprised and happy that a Fate game came out on the Switch. It is like Hyrule Warriors and Fire Emblem Warriors. One of the differences is that there is no fields. You jump from 'fort' to 'fort'. But it is a little confusing figuring out how to get to a specific 'fort'.

This is a great game. This game shows me that Nintendo is really working to put out great games on the Switch. If you love any misou type games such as Dynasty Warriors or Samauri Warriors, then this is the game for you.
