    Pokemon Sword is a lot of fun and offers a ton of content to play and explore. Fun for the whole family and easy to get the hang of for kids.

    If you’ve ever played a mainline Pokémon game then you pretty well know what to expect, mostly more of the same thing but looks great on a full blown home console.

    The spectacle and Olympic like nature of the gym challenges make them so much more engaging, and the wild area is just great. Also a lot of well needed quality of life changes like the box/PC system. Story is lackluster but the game is still charming and enjoyable overall.

    While this game was better than the Sun/Moon games, there is still too much hand holding in the campaign. I only endorse this game if you plan on getting involved in the online community - there I have found personal friends and tons of good times.

    You cant beat pokemon. While I certainly wish it had more to it, and wasnt going to be added in DLC, its still a great game with lots of exciting things to do.

    Was a much better game than I thought it would be especially with a lot of features being taken out a risk that nintendo took with a better payoff than expected.
