As everyone knows, whoever plays this game is OBVIOUSLY a RWBY fan, but if you're not, try out the show! Volume 1-3 are currently available to watch on YouTube with a price of a subscribe. ;3 Volume 4 is currently ongoing on RoosterTeeth First⭐️, that's a paid subscription (free episodes on YouTube after a week airing too).

Now time to go on about the game:
Pros
- Fast paced action play
- Easy controls for new players and surprisingly challenging in higher difficulties
- Art designs are exactly the same from the show
- Everything is easily understood within 5 mins of the game (if you're a experienced gamer, which I'm sure you are)
- Challenges that are actually CHALLENGING (depending on your standards, I felt it was fairly normal)
- Horde Mode is quite fun with solo and with other players
- Spicy quotes from characters
- OST that cut into instrumental and slightly different for the game
- Story that isn't a part of the show

Cons
- Somewhat overpriced for small content (There are cheaper games with more content than this game, surprising ain't it?)
- Story seems too plain, short and washed out with little immersion
- Skill system seems too short and simple (some free games provide better skill system with more details and a deeper understanding for use in offense, defense, support and such, which aren't all pay to get either with micro transactions )
- Lag spikes when near trees with lots of particles like in the map "End of The Line" and with enemies more than 12 will kill your frame rate no matter on Potato graphics or Ultra (my PC is mid-end, so no hardware problems here)
- Not enough bosses and way too many wave survival areas (maybe some rescue scenarios be fun too, adds more challenging stuff)
- Enemies are of little variety (meaning there isn't much variety of Grimm and other enemies)
- Cutscenes were... Unique! Yea that's the word
- Not enough spicy quotes from characters
- Speed run challenges or ranking for that be cool since its kind of an arcade like game
- Fun's too brief, way too brief. 10-20 mins = entire game even on Legendary on SOLO (can't play eclipse because I'm a ♥♥♥♥♥)
- DLC characters could have a separate mission but didn't (don't just give us characters, give us a separate story too! Price don't matter too much but CONTENT! RoosterTeeth, you guys should know this better than most people!)
- ULTRA settings isn't as "ultra" as you think :P

Reviewer's note: Honestly, I love this game and it could go better than it is now. We do have millions of fans of RWBY, and I mean millions. Shouldn't it's own game receive just as much love? We know we ask a lot, but if you can MAKE IT! WE BUY IT! I mean some of us spend like 60-80 dollars for games almost almost every 3-4 weeks you know? Some even more!

P.S: RoosterTeeth Games, if you're reading this review, love the game, love the art, love almost everything. But do me one thing! JUST ONE! LAG FIX PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! Ok thanks bye! *Waving*
