Release Date: September 25, 2015
An old-school fighting game, taking place in the Saint Seiya universe, known for its popular manga and TV series. The video game series was developed by Bandai Namco ever since the series' creation in 2006. The title stands out from other fighting games with its complex story, which focuses around the conflict between Knights of the Zodiac and Golden Saints.
Saint Seiya: Soldiers’ Soul for PC, PS4 and PS3 is a classic fighting game taking place in the Saint Seiya universe, a popular manga and anime created in 1986. The series received a number of entries, but each one is rather oriented towards the fun-factor and dynamics. Since the first installment, the series is in the hands of Bandai Namco.
The game has a surprisingly complex storyline for its genre. The plotline focuses on Knights of the Zodiac, and their unending struggle against Golden Saints. The protagonist – Seiya – has to once again stand in defense of goddess Athena, but this time he will have to face much stronger opponents – the resurrected antagonists from previous installments, wearing legendary armors that endow them with god-like powers. Our hero, along with his companions, has to face them. Soldiers’ Soul story is based on one of the seasons of the TV show.
The players can choose from over 50 different fighters, known to every Saint Seiya fan. Each of the contenders has his own set of spectacular moves, however the characteristic thing that connect them all is the incredible speed – individual moves, dodges, and attacks are performed with incredible speed, and to fully master the whole system, the player has to possess not only serious dexterity, but also build a considerable skill. The feeling of extraordinary speed is further complemented by the visuals – the PC version, for example, runs in native 1080p at 60 frames per second. Furthermore – because of all details, effects, textures, and camera shots – the player is subjected to constant motion during the fights.

Game Ratings for Saint Seiya: Soldiers' Soul Video Game.
GamingTrend: 35 / 100 by Patrick Rost
Saint Seiya Soldier's Soul is a quaint fighting game that has its small playability value robbed by a unique fatal flaw in the restart option that drags the action and frustrates the player. While the game has some interesting features, it mostly just drags through monotonous gameplay and a confusing story. Too many features are hard to understand, and while unlocking features, items, and stages reminds me of old school fighting games, the problems of Saint Seiya Soldier's Soul makes the work to unlock them simply not worth the time and effort.
TheSixthAxis: 6 / 10 by Dominic Leighton
Fans of the series will probably still find some enjoyment from playing through the four story arcs, but it feels like a missed opportunity for such an iconic property.
G4@Syfygames: 6 / 10 by Grant Patterson
I wanted to like this game, but I just can't. And this is from Dimps, to boot — a company I stand behind as purveyors of some pretty fun stuff. They made all the Dragon Ball Z Budokai games on PS2, and they had a major hand in the development of Street Fighter IV, so I know that they're better than this. There's shades of a good game underneath all the trappings, but said trappings are not just holding this game back from being the best it can be, they're holding it back from being fun. And really, if your game isn't fun, what purpose does it serve?
