When you combine your efforts your party can go far. Strategic planning and organizing your attacks on the hundreds of creatures and the difficult bosses are essential in completing Gauntlet Legends. Gauntlet Legends looked good at the arcade and it looks amazing on the Dreamcast. The levels are colorful and rich with detail and dynamic lighting. The characters and monsters are all very detailed and well animated.
Special effects are plentiful and magical combat is truly breathtaking.
Explosions, starbursts, flames, and smoke are all presented in glorious detail and add to the excitement of medieval combat. The colors and textures have all been improved over the arcade version making this the best looking version of the game on any home or arcade platform. The pre-rendered movies look amazing and keep the story progressing through the many levels of this game. The voice acting in Gauntlet Legends leaves much to be desired. I'm not sure if this was done on purpose as a carry-over from the game's early years or what.
