Planet Xbox 360
What can gamers take away from their experience with Zoids Assault? Well, first off, the strategy role-playing genre is still in need of a worthy candidate to make the genre look extraordinary again. Secondly, the developers need to hire better writers to create a campaign truly worthy of our time.
Read Full Review >RPG Fan
Zoids Assault is a bland, uninspiring game that will keep the interest of very few gamers after the first battle or two.
Read Full Review >GameZone
Zoids Assault is a title that won’t win over too many new fans. It has low production values, the storyline is weak, the gameplay is standard and the audio isn’t anything special; all the makings of a below-average video game.
Read Full Review >1UP
A stiff, by-the-numbers experience that mixes a few good ideas with generally middling execution.
Read Full Review >Game Informer
I am not exaggerating when I say that any of the many Front Mission games will serve your giant robot strategy/RPG needs far better than Zoids Assault ever could. Don’t waste your time here.
Read Full Review >Cheat Code Central
In its battle system, Zoids Assault has the germ of a great game. The idea is executed so half-heartedly, however, that it's hard to imagine what the developers were thinking. So, many minor tweaks could have made this so much better. Factor in a price that's at least quadruple what it should be, and it's not just a bad game, it's an insult.

For the rest of the RPG fans, there are much better choices when it comes to playing a JRPG stateside; none of which involve importation.
Read Full Review >IGN
Steer clear of Zoids unless you’re a rabid strategy fan who has played through Atlus’ other lackluster titles or if you’re an ardent supporter of the franchise. Everyone else needn’t apply.
Read Full Review >GamingTrend
After playing Zoids Assault, I really had to wonder why it was made or why Atlus decided to bring it over to these shores.
Read Full Review >Worth Playing
It offers nothing, not even to die-hard fans of the Zoids series, and certainly not to Xbox 360 owners who are looking for an SRPG to tide them over. It's rare I say this, but Zoids Assault is a game to avoid at all costs.
Read Full Review >Official Xbox Magazine
Zoids Assault's gameplay is certainly challenging, but regrettably, it's for all the wrong reasons. [Nov 2008, p.78]
Destructoid
A big mess of a strategy role-playing game, as it seems to fall short on just about every level. Fans of strategy games can easily overlook a lackluster presentation, but Zoids Assault also suffers a severe lack of appealing game play, making it hard to recommend to anyone.
Read Full Review >Gamervision
The only thing more unbelievable than the fact that Zoids Assault is a full-priced title is that they advertise downloadable content on the back of the box.
Read Full Review >GameCritics
Zoids Assault, while not a complete disaster, is something altogether worse. It's completely unnecessary.

Mack Z. gave it an8:
This is a really solid strategy game on the 360. The cutscenes aren't very entertaining, but, the gameplay is, and honestly, that's all I'm concerned about. Well worth my time and money.
