So if Girls und Panzer: Dream Tank Match isn’t the game I unreasonably wanted it to be, what is it, then? That might require some background, first.įor the poor souls that haven’t heard of it yet, Girls und Panzer is an anime series about the ultimate traditional women’s sport: “Panzerfahren,” a game of combat in vintage armored vehicles from in and around World War II. A North American or European release is as yet unannounced.) (Note: This review is of the version of the game released in Southeast Asian territories. That game would be the ideal ambassador for the joy of Girls und Panzer, bringing its unique blend of sports, cuteness, and armored warfare to the gaming masses the way the Ultimate Ninja Storm game brought Naruto fandom, or the way one could in theory become a fan of Sword Art Online solely through playing the games.ĭream Tank Match isn’t that game, but that’s not to say playing it wasn’t a blast, or even that non-fans of the series won’t get anything out of it. Truth be told, Girls und Panzer: Dream Tank Match isn’t the game I wanted out of something based on one of my favorite anime series.
