4 critics 18 lists ★ 4.2/5 RAWG ActionAdventure

Once a revered deity, Asura was betrayed by his fellow gods and stripped of all his powers. Consumed by anger at the injustice he has suffered and swearing vengeance, Asura discovers he can use this fury to his advantage and turn it against his enemies. By channelling his inner rage, Asura is now able to unleash devastating attacks and wreak havoc as he battles against the deities who have wronged him and their earthly forces. Inspired by episodic dramas, Asura's Wrath will be split into distinct sections with gameplay and narrative unfolding as one and building to a final climatic conclusion.

The Generation GapWhat our critics say

Capcom and CyberConnect2's 2012 release, ASURA'S WRATH, was less a game and more an interactive anime spectacle. It pushed the boundaries of cinematic storytelling, presenting an over-the-top, multi-episode saga of demigods, betrayal, and cosmic vengeance. While gameplay often revolved around quick-time events and simplified combat, its sheer visual ambition, relentless pacing, and unbridled audacity delivered an experience unlike anything else. It’s a fascinating experiment in narrative delivery, proving that sometimes, the story is truly the dominant force.

Is it a game? Is it an anime? It’s *ASURA'S WRATH*, and it doesn't give a damn about your definitions. This is peak CyberConnect2 spectacle, a QTE-heavy, button-mashing, narrative-driven experience that just keeps escalating the absurdity and scale. Fighting gods on the moon, punching things into orbit – it’s pure, glorious, unhinged power fantasy. Modern games try to tell stories, but Asura *is* a story, demanding you participate in its over-the-top, bombastic ride. Unforgettable.

Okay, ASURA'S WRATH is peak anime action, no cap. This 2012 banger is basically a playable shonen epic where every boss fight is a ten-minute QTE spectacle. You're punching gods the size of planets, and the sheer audacity of it all is wild. The story's bonkers, too, with betrayal and revenge turned up to eleven. It's less a game, more an interactive fever dream of pure, unadulterated hype. If you want maximum chaotic energy, this is it.
