Blade Ballet is a blast with friends. Summon the Avengers and make a rip-roaring good time of it, but the lack of any online activity means that the game will lay dormant for a large amount of time. Sure, it’s far from an expensive release, and maybe some life will be zapped into it eventually, but it is hard to recommend something where one of its two gameplay modes is currently completely unplayable.

Blade Ballet can be a lot of fun in the right setting, but even then it won't set the world on fire. It won't supplant Samurai Gunn or TowerFall as a go-to indie party combat game, but it does a fine job supplementing those titles for a raucous evening. Add it to the list of stuff to bust out when friends are around, but don't even bother going in solo.

With a bit more content, Blade Ballet could have the potential to be another multiplayer classic, which is why hopefully we’ll see more additions to it in the future. As is, though, it’s still really fun, especially when combined with a few good friends. It’s the type of simple yet addictive gameplay that you can easily get into, and so this vivid yet violent robot rumble is worth taking a peek at. At the very least, it still proves that our lust for seeing hunks of metal smash each other into piles of scrap is alive and well, so yay to that!

With a full couch of buddies or playing online, you’re sure to have a blast. Just… Leave the bots in a safe environment where you won’t be taunted. I got laughed at and made fun of a lot.

Blade Ballet is something you don’t see every day on PC; a real, heartfelt attempt to replicate the compelling trappings of Capcom’s Power Stone, it succeeds as an accomplished go-to prospect for local and online multiplayer party shenanigans but the lack of a single-player mode and other content presently hamstring its ultimate potential.
