Frontier Hunter: Erza’s Wheel of Fortune is a delightful metroidvania surprise that combines engaging combat customization, deep gameplay mechanics, and satisfying exploration. Despite its poor English localization and stiff cutscene animations, the game excels with its unique character abilities, challenging boss battles, and immersive sound design. Players will find themselves hooked on the game's addictive progression systems, making it a hidden gem worth exploring for all action RPG and metroidvania fans. The Good - Terrific Combat Customization - The presence of multiple characters with distinctive weapons and playstyles that can all be individually customized for intricate identities makes combat progression constantly fulfilling. - Stellar Boss Design and Movement - Movement is smooth and intuitive, playing an integral role when combatting the well-designed bosses that boast confidently portrayed telegraphs and challenging movesets that can catch you off-guard during initial attempts. - Outstanding Soundtrack - This is easily one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard, being a collectively strong motivator for progression besides the already addictive combat design. - Fulfilling Exploration - The metroidvania implementations here are simple yet effective, with the smooth movement only enhancing the sheer joy of progression. The Bad - Poorly Edited English Localization and Ill-Paced Narrative - Unfortunately, the English script here needs a fundamental rework since while the narrative can be understood, it's a continuously messy affair that feels like work to keep track of.

Overall, if you’re a fan of anime-style games with Metroidvania gameplay mechanics, then this one is a no-brainer. It lacks the challenging combat of say Hollow Knight but it’s a fun romp with some stylish cut scenes and over-the-top characters that will keep you entertained throughout. Developer – IceSitruuna Publisher – IceSitruuna Platforms – PC (reviewed) Review copy given by publisher Frontier Hunter is an anime-style Metroidvania game available since 26th July on PC via Steam and PS5.

Ultimately, this game is a mixed bag. Its combat is addictive and well-designed, offering plenty of content, secrets, and mechanics to keep players engaged. However, the lack luster graphics, at times frustrating enemy design, and odd gameplay choices hold it back from reaching its full potential. It’s a game worth playing, but perhaps one best picked up during a sale.

Frontier Hunter: Erza’s Wheel of Fortune is a solid entry in the Metroidvania genre, but it falls short of being a standout title. It’s a game that will likely appeal to a niche audience—those who appreciate its particular blend of gameplay mechanics and visual style—but may not resonate as strongly with a broader audience. Whether you’re a Metroidvania veteran or new to the genre, Frontier Hunter is worth a look, but it’s important to go in with tempered expectations, particularly regarding its narrative and presentation.
