Reviews

The TakeOver is an absolutely solid beat-’em-up experience. Get past some of the shortcomings, like constant load times and bad cut scene art, and you have a title that uses a solid base with additions that feel just right for the genre without going overboard. It’s fun either solo or with a friend, and while online play would’ve been nice, fans of the genre will enjoy every minute with the game.

Worth Playing

A gorgeously framed love letter to the Streets of Rage series, The Takeover is a surprisingly robust and attractive side-scrolling brawler that finds itself let down by poor AI, repetitive enemy types and completely unneeded non-fighting stages.
