Summary

Brawlhalla has a TrueGG Rating of 54.6%: the positive share among 9,252 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 20+ hours. That is 25.0 points below Steam's overall 79.6%, so players who really play the current version are harsher than the headline number suggests (all time: 77.0%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 7% of the total, with 71% positive. The early hours do not split opinion much.

In the last 180 days, approval peaks at 70% around 2–5h and falls to 50% at 200h+: in the current version, long-time players are harsher.

Positive reviews praise how fun it feels.

Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 71.0%, 16.5 points above all languages.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (78.3% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.
