In Issue one we reviewed this game on import – six months on Zero Divide is now officially available in the UK. So, has it changed much? Basically, the game is on a level similar to Rise Of The Robots, featuring eight different warriors, most of them robots, each with their own moves and weapons.

In a style similar to Battle Arena Toshinden, each robot battles it out in a large arena, which can be viewed from any angle. The backdrops look quite impressive and the fighters are bright and well detailed. However, the robots themselves are extremely sluggish and just don’t respond to the controls properly, which spoilt my enjoyment of the game after just a few minutes.

There also appears to be a real shortage of moves, which is so disappointing as this could have been so much better. The robots themselves look good and move well, but all are too slow and unresponsive. To make things worse, an extremely annoying DJ commentates over each fight Ridge Racer style.

Basically, this has nothing we haven’t seen before, and doesn’t warrant buying especially as there are so many more satisfying beat-’em-ups out there.
