Discover the 5 best games that allow the player to immerse themselves and experience the world of anime with our list.
Anime games are a genre that, overall, is very inconsistent in quality. Most of the time, anime games are rushed and devoid of any life. However, sometimes you get anime games that are full of the developer’s love and passion for the medium. These games carry this genre on their backs and are still loved by players years after release.
If you are looking for quality playable anime experiences, then here are the 5 best anime games of all time.
1. Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4
Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 is easily one of the best Naruto games of all time. The reason is, it took everything that worked about the Storm series and made it better. It focuses strictly on the epic fights in the main story and cuts out the unnecessary parts, streamlining the experience. Additionally, it is a great alternative to the Naruto anime in witnessing the finale of this series.
From a massive roster, an optional open world, and epic boss fights, everything great about the Storm series is present here.
2. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 makes every fan’s lifelong dream come true. That is, inserting themselves into the verse as their own character. Xenoverse 2 allows players to pick many iconic races, such as Saiyans, Frieza Clansmen, and Majin, and gives them all unique transformations. Additionally, the combat consists of many dynamic combos, alongside the option to pick iconic skills from the series.
The story is refreshing, offering a unique twist on the classic Dragon Ball storyline by altering the events. With the sheer amount of content in this game and a decade-long patch support, it is easily one of the best anime games out there.
3. Dragon Ball FighterZ
As many anime fighting games are heavily unbalanced, everyone doubted Dragon Ball FighterZ. However, this game proved to everyone that anime fighting games can be very popular and have competitive integrity. It features a relatively small roster but makes up for it by making each character unique. Additionally, Dragon Ball FighterZ being a 3v3 game encourages players to be creative with their teams.
While the story mode is lackluster, the actual fighting mechanics are phenomenal. They are easily on par with some of the big names like Tekken and Street Fighter.
4. JoJo’s Bizzarre Adventure: All Star Battle R
Developed by Cyberconnect2, All Star Battle R is a great anime game and arguably the best JoJo’s game. While there is no traditional story mode in this game, there is an All-Star Battle Mode that serves a similar purpose. It makes players go through all iconic battles from Phantom Blood until the end of Steel Ball Run.
However, the main highlight of this game is the battle mechanics. As it is a fighting game, it makes each character unique, as almost every JoJo character has a different set of abilities. For example, in Phantom Blood, the characters used Hamon, which is reflected in the gameplay.
5. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Hinokami Chronicles
The Hinokami Chronicles can be considered the Storm series for Demon Slayer, which is no surprise, as CyberConnect2 developed this game. The combat is incredibly similar to the Storm series, and the super flashy boss fights with their signature QTEs are also present here. Additionally, this game faithfully adapts the events of the first season of Demon Slayer with meticulous detail. These factors easily make it one of the best anime games of all time.
