A refreshed version of an action jRPG from PS Vita. In Freedom Wars Remastered we play as a convict living in an oppressive city of the future. We must fight mechanical monsters called Abductors to shorten our sentence and aside from guns we can also rely on a useful hook.
Freedom Wars Remastered is a refreshed version of the action RPG produced by Sony Interactive Entertainment, originally released for PS Vita in 2014. The game combines elements known the Amazing Spider-Man series. Dimps Corporation is responsible for creating the remaster.
Freedom Wars presents a dystopian vision of the distant future in which people live in large walled cities known as the Panopticon. Our hero is sentenced to one million years in prison due to the oppressive actions of the Panopticon. To shorten his sentence, he undertakes dangerous missions to free citizens captured by giant mechanical monsters called Abductors. He also slowly uncovers the conspiracy.
After creating our character, we wake up in a cell, being under constant observation. Sleeping or running to the store are privileges that come at a price and add years to our sentence. To reduce it, we set out on missions to rescue citizens from the hands of large mechanical monsters, previously selecting equipment and four team .
Weapons come in many types, allowing for shooting or engaging in hand-to-hand combat. Both in combat and when moving around, we are aided by the Thorn wrapped around our wrist, which acts similarly to a hook. We can attach it to buildings, containers, walls and enemies, as well as grab items and "revive" teammates.
The combat in Freedom Wars requires strategic thinking. Abductors appear in different forms and consist of separately treated elements - legs, arms, weapons, etc. We can deprive them of body parts and then upgrade our own weapon with them. The production time of items is shortened by asg rescued citizens to this task. Apart from the Abductors, we face fast and agile convicts from other Panopticons.
The game also has stealth elements.
Compared to the original, Freedom Wars Remastered adds difficulty settings and improves the weapon crafting system.
In Freedom Wars Remastered we are dealing with textures, models, and interface in higher resolution, including 4K.

Game Ratings for Freedom Wars Remastered Video Game.
Twisted Voxel: 7 / 10 by Ali Haider
A valiant return for the PS Vita classic, Freedom Wars Remastered transports players to a dystopian future with an engaging twist on the Monster Hunter formula. Despite the original's struggles due to the Vita's poor sales, this remaster brings back its intense resource-gathering missions and customizable characters with polished visuals for modern platforms. While the barren environments and thin story may not impress everyone, the solid combat system and intriguing multiplayer mode breathe new life into this forgotten gem.
One More Game: 7 / 10 by Ricki Buzon
Freedom Wars was a standout title on the PlayStation Vita for good reason. While it might be tempting to categorize it as another Monster Hunter clone, the unique Thorn mechanic, along with its compelling story and setting, distinguished it from other games in the genre. Given its return after nearly a decade, it certainly deserved better. The game is enjoyable overall, but some areas need improvement. Addressing the freezing issues and enhancing the quality of the English voiceovers would significantly elevate the experience. The League of Panopticon feature holds promise, potentially motivating players to engage and contribute to their region's standings. This feature proved successful in Helldivers II and could similarly benefit Freedom Wars.
Thumb Culture: 3 / 5
This time round, playing FREEDOM WARS, I wasn’t really enjoying the gameplay as much as I did back then. The game itself runs fine, and I only had one freeze that quickly stopped. Control-wise, it feels much better than it did on the Vita. The story isn’t captivating me and it just seems like it’s dragging. Missions take a bit too long for my liking. For later missions, enemies just seem like damage sponges, and no matter how much I upgrade my gear, it doesn’t change. It’s terrible commanding the A.I. bots since no matter what, it feels as if I’m doing everything. I command them to focus on reviving. They stop shooting all together, so I have to attack alone. Instead, I set them to focus on an enemy, then they ignore reviving allies and me. Now, that’s all said and done. The game just might not be for me. I’m giving FREEDOM WARS Remastered the Silver Award. Although I would add that I believe you’ll have more of a golden experience if you play the game with a group of people.
