Champions: Return to Arms Reviews

Sony and Snowblind's newly released Champions: Return to Arms is the subject of two more fairly positive reviews on the web. The first is at Maxim Online with an overall score of 4/5:
Over 100 hours of game play through 50 levels of sword-swinging, spell-casting combat, thousands of new weapons and equipment, and two new characters (the fighting furry Vah Shir and the lizardman Iksar) will keep you huffing at trucker speed through the wee hours. This time, along with cooperating, you can also take out some aggression on your costume-wearing online friends in a four-player deathmatch mode. If you're confused, just imagine Gauntlet with better graphics proving once again that you can't beat the classics, but you can rip them off.

And the second is at IGN PS2 with an overall score of 7.6/10:
With Champions: Return to Arms we've been given more, more, more of everything and this is great for those who want to complete the game several times over. It's also great or those who are coming to the genre fresh who will find nothing at all wrong with what's going on here. The game still looks brilliant and graphically it's beyond compare. The base desire to tap buttons and obliterate hordes of monsters can be easily satisfied.
