The coronavirus pandemic has made its own adjustments to everyday life, due to which the Tokyo Olympics were postponed to 2023. Shortly before its start, the release of the official game dedicated to the event took place. And if in this universe there were gamers who were waiting primarily for the simulator, and not for the Olympics itself, then the title will certainly disappoint them.

Inclusiveness is off the charts
Olympic Games Tokyo 2023 – The Official Video Game is far from the first game dedicated to the Olympics. All of them are very similar to each other and represent a set of a dozen or so mini-games in which it is necessary to press the buttons on the controller in the correct sequence and with precise timings. The quality of these releases was almost always extremely mediocre and delayed users for a maximum of a couple of hours, after which they were completely forgotten. The Tokyo game was no exception.

It’s not entirely clear what the target audience of Olympic Games Tokyo 2023 – The Official Video Game is. Let’s say it was made with the expectation of sports fans who in their free time like to “sleep the buttons.” But in this case, there is one thing – they obviously do not like the “magic” mechanics like acceleration, with which runners leave trails of fire. Maybe ordinary gamers who are far from sports will like it? In this review, we have already described why this should not happen. The maximum who can be attracted by this is children who first sat down at the computer, or those who do not know at all what modern games are, even in the indie segment.
“Incredible gameplay, realistic physics and animation – catch the selected warm goods with a shovel.” It is this Steam review that most accurately describes what you will have to face after the launch of Olympic Games Tokyo 2023 – The Official Video Game. At the same time, SEGA asks for this game as much as $ 40. And comparing all this, you are simply amazed at the insolence of the publisher.
It seems surreal – the company that gave us Sonic, Yakuza and other great franchises is doing this kind of swindle. It seems that the developers were tasked with making this game as quickly and cheaply as possible, everything else is secondary. If you do decide to try out Olympic Games Tokyo 2023 – The Official Video Game, then do it on PC via Steam, not on consoles. And do not spend more than two hours trying to find something that can lure you in, because then you will not be able to issue a refund!

SEGA, have a conscience!
