Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition

« This 20th-anniversary edition of Beyond Good & Evil dodges that trap by being genuinely entertaining, playable and polished over its relatively short running time. Maybe it’s the banter between Jade and Pey’j, perhaps it’s the restless diversity of its levels, or could it be just that Ancel packed his designs with myriad lovely touches. »

« Beyond Good & Evil is an absolute classic, and the 20th Anniversary Edition makes it easier than ever to appreciate why. The characters are endearing, the visuals are mostly amazing, the music is incredible, and the gameplay is a ton of fun on top of all that. If this is your first time stepping into Jade’s sneakers or your 20th, now has never been a better time to explore the beauty of Hillys. »

« Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary really is the best way to play this classic cult title, bringing it up to date in terms of controls, resolutions and more. The underlying game may show its age at times, especially during the enforced stealth sections, but there is so much charm and character here that it deserves a whole new audience. »

« Beyond Good & Evil - 20th Anniversary Edition is a great version of a genuinely wonderful game that truly does the original release justice. »

« This new edition of Ubisoft's -highly- underrated platformer includes some welcoming quality-of-life improvements and enhanced visual, bringing it up to par with modern games. »

« Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition is a remaster that few people asked for, but it offers good technical improvements, adds new content and brings us a little closer to Beyond Good & Evil 2. If you've never played it you should give it a chance and if you did, it never hurts to enjoy it again if you're a fan of the series. »

« A bona fide classic remastered with love and care. This edition brings smooth visuals, a beautifully recreated musical score, and well-presented supplemental materials. It certainly shows its age, but like all great art, Beyond Good & Evil weathers the test of time with grace. »

« Beyond Good & Evil's 20th Anniversary Edition does a commendable job of freshening up an experience that had long aged out of its must-play status. Enhanced visuals that don't dull the original charm, welcome quality-of-life and control improvements and a nice smattering of extra content go a long way to making this a worthwhile revisit to Hillys. »

« Além de remasterizar esse clássico a Ubisoft traduziu para o português. A Ubisoft Montpellier e a Virtuos estão de parabéns. Estero que as outras empresa aprendam. »

« It's a nice nostalgia, I loved it back in 2004, i played it on pc without controller support, and trophies. Now It's much better with a controller, and looking forward for that platinum trophy »

« Its incredible, it almost seems like it wasnt made by ubisoft. BGE is an adventure of a reporter called jade that uncovers the truth behind whats happening with the goverment. Jade will be in Hillys a futuristic planet filled with many species, secrets and activities. The main objective consists of taking photographic evidence of an assigment given by your group to uncover the truth. Along the way you will take photos of the wildlife that give you currency, solve some clever fun and short puzzles and stealth your way trough facilities as well as participate in some racing competitions. Gameplay is pretty fun and it makes you think even, the main issue is probably the dated combat and some minor issues such as the game not warning you about enemy pressence, so you run and accidentaly alert them. Its not revolutionary by any means but it was fun and varied. Exploring the little region of Hillys was fun at times it has breathtaking views such as the main city and it can also give you the creeps in the facilities that you enter. Everything is followed by an incredible soundtrack, it isnt a masterpiece sure but it has many good tracks and it fits well. Storywise, its decent maybe a bit good. Its about uncovering the truth about the goverment, i dont want to spoil it so i will stay there, but it has both its good moments and flawed moments. For the good there is a couple of really good scenes, its fresh and it doesnt treat jade as some unbeliveable skillfull monster, she is weak against many soldiers and she must be sneaky and be careful of not get too deep into trouble, she is more human than many protagonists, it also had interesting and fun moments about the "aliens" to not spoil. Some characters were fun but none of them had any real deep writing aside from maybe PeyJ and Jade and it isnt even that deep, still they were fun. I think the main issue of the game is how short it is. At first it seems that its taking its time but on the last 2 hours there is such a huge influx of info, if it was couple of hours longer they could have fleshed out the story a lot better and include more of the activities, there are races but only 4, there is a fun minigame but only 1, the facility sneaking was nice but there were like 3 and they werent too long either. The main explanation of this is that it was both rushed and they wanted to do a trilogy early on but the second game is the longest game in development of all time and nobody knows if it will even release. Overall really fun, fresh coming from ubisoft and it aged really well for today standards even tho it has some quirks. The new content added is good. Worth at 20$ but its short so maybe 12$. »

« I loved this game when it first came out. The new version retains the spirit of the original, though I wish the graphics—and especially the fighting mechanics—were better, more in line with modern standards. I'd give it a 7/10, with an extra point earned purely from nostalgia. »

« Fantastic! If there is just one game you ever buy for your Playstation, let it be this game. It is a balanced game with lots of fun for everyone. Racing, nature photography, avoid monsters, rescue the planet, stealth, intrigue, Keith Richards (?!), and tribute to Black Isle game producers. »

« An exciting Action-Adventure game that relies on Slash, Stealth and Flight Shooter in its combat. This game is a remastered version of the game which was first released in 2003! In this game, we become Jade, who lives with her uncle Pey'J, a Pig Man and children who lost their parents, the Hillyans, who were kidnapped by Alien DomZ who invaded Planet Hillys. One day, Jade was contacted by the IRIS group who believed that the Alpha Sections Military led by General Kehck were DomZ Alien Puppets and played a role in helping the kidnapping! And finally, Jade fought against the two alliances, especially after Pey'J was kidnapped, and in the ending of the story, he freed Pey'J in The Great Crypt on the Moon, and fought against the leader of DomZ, the High Priest, and succeeded in freeing the Hillyans who captive. »

« The game may have updated graphics and controls, but a lot of the time it is more frustrating than fun. It feels outdated and awkward. »

« A classic from my childhood, delivering a great story in a beautiful world full of character. Its story driven linear pacing is a breath of fresh air compared to some of today's open worlds : every facet of this game is intentional, none can be considered filler. The world is coherent and beautifully crafted, music and ambiance are very well made, leading to a great 10 to 15 hours of gameplay until the story's resolution. »
