Reception

Brave: A Warrior's Tale has received generally negative reviews. [3] [2]

Chris Watters of GameSpot stated, "A cruelly hijacked story makes this otherwise serviceable game a pale shadow of adventures past." Watters gave the Xbox 360 version a score of 4.5/10. [4]

Tom Price of TeamXbox called the game a "standard third-person action-adventure game" that "lacks all the charm of a Banjo-Kazooie type of world." Price also noticed several in-game bugs, stating, "I can’t tell you how many times I fell through solid objects or had the game completely freeze up on me." Price gave the game 2.5/10, accounting for its lowest rating. [11]

Dylan Platt of GameZone gave the same version 5.5/10, saying, "In bringing the game to the 360 [from the PlayStation 2], Collision Studios added some pretty terrible new content, and not a small number of bugs and glitches." Platt also stated that, "The moment-to-moment gameplay of Brave’s sequences are fairly fun (though bugs are far more frequent than they should be), but the beginning and ending Courage segments are frustrating, poorly designed, and ridiculously glitchy." [6]
