Berserk Boy is a satisfying modern take on Mega Man

Berserk Boy is a great modern take on Mega Man style gameplay and one of the better recent attempts to bring the 16-bit era into the 2020s. Its story is lacking somewhat but it's got it where it matters, with solid platforming and satisfying combat.

  • Combat has satisfying impact
  • Difficulty curve is more approachable than Mega Man
  • Its 'Retro HD' visuals are brilliantly handled
  • Fantastic soundtrack
  • The story is far from engaging
4 / 5
