Mini Review: Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee Remastered (PS5) – Nostalgic Kaiju Brawls in This Fun But Meagre Package
The remaster brings back a lively kaiju arena brawler, preserving the satisfying combat and city destruction that made the original appealing. It looks and runs well on PS5, but a short story mode and limited alternatives leave little to do after the initial fun.
Players can choose from four monsters at the start, with more to unlock; the remaster also removes Hedorah, while Mothra remains. The reviewer praises the crisp visuals, stable frame rate and film-inspired sound, but says the story can take about 15 minutes and the unlock system adds a grind. The verdict is that it is a brief, enjoyable return for Godzilla fans, with limited long-term appeal.
In short
- The remaster keeps the original’s enjoyable kaiju combat.
- PS5 visuals are crisp and performance is stable.
- Short modes limit its lasting appeal.
