Captain Tsubasa II: World Fighters
What critics said
COGconnected70Captain Tsubasa 2: World Fighters successfully combines story and soccer to create an experience that scratches an itch which titles such as FC don’t manage to do. While it improves the on-pitch action, story segments remain the same as the original, lacking inspired visual direction.
IGN Italy65Captain Tsubasa 2: World Fighters fully embraces the series' shōnen nature, turning football into a spectacular sequence of duels, combos, and special moves. However, technical inconsistencies, weak AI, low difficulty, limited modes, and a stripped-back online offering make it a missed opportunity that only die-hard fans of Takahashi's work are likely to fully enjoy.
Denjin Den80World Fighters neither tries nor claims to simulate real football and let’s be honest, that’s probably for the best. The match is built around keeping possession, player duels, resource management, and, of course, the use of special techniques.
