Upon its original release in April 2025, the game earned a Metacritic score of 77. Our sister site Pure Xbox liked the overall experience a lot more than that score, though, awarding it a 9/10.

"It's not perfect, and its combat mechanics are a bit lacking, but the game has so much soul, personality and charm that it's hard not to fall in love with it," the outlet concluded.
