Critic Reviews for The Legend of Korra
What a disappointment. Even with a reputable developer behind it, The Legend of Korra game left us bent out of shape.
There is some value in The Legend of Korra, both as a game and as a tribute to the cartoon on which it's based, but it falls far short of its potential on both counts. Perhaps the third-person combat theatrics for which the studio is known are not replicable on a small budget. You can't blame the IP, which offers a rich vein of material. Regardless, this is the first major blemish on the studio's reputation; a misfire that means Platinum's name no longer guarantees quality.
The best fan experience for the series by far, but cut corners and poor design choices bog down an otherwise fun beat-em up.
The worst game Platinum has ever made, and thanks to its sheer incompetence and banality almost the Bizarro World opposite of Bayonetta.
Better gameplay pacing and more interesting level designs might have kept this from being such a missed opportunity
The Legend of Korra doesn't even come close to capturing the spark of the universe it depicts.
The Legend of Korra does a disservice to its much-loved source material
Combat feels good at times, but overall the game is alternately bland and frustrating.
