What a great year we are having! First, the release of the long-awaited Final Fantasy XV. Now – the debut of The Last Guardian.

Fumito Ueda asked us to wait for long. It’s been 10 years since the start of The Last Guardian’s active development. Was preordering the game a good move? Let the reviewers tell their story…

All that time resulted in a polished emotional core that redeems the experience, because ultimately The Last Guardian isn’t about pulling switches or leaping over gaps. It’s about your smile when you see Trico… – Joe Juba, GameInformer, 8/10

The Last Guardian is about two lost souls becoming one, and the strength and joy found in that conjunction. – Mike Fahey, Kotaku, no score

The Last Guardian is Team ICO’s magnum opus. Everything they learned from the prior games in this semi-series has been put to use here and allowed them to craft their greatest adventure yet. –  Jeremy Peeples, Hardcore Gamer, 5/5
