There are seven different legions you can use, each one having different special attacks. The majority of the damage you inflict on the enemy hordes is done by the legions you have at your control. Of course, controlling Sieg and his female counterpart Arcia is only half of the game. Late in the game you can control a female character that packs double pistols and uses them in the same flashy way as Dante, but the targeting is so horrible that even though you can do flips and spins and all sorts of special attacks, the only way you can hit anything is by standing perfectly still. The gameplay is nothing more than slamming the Square button repeatedly and watching the same animations over and over again. Truth be told, though, there just isn't enough variety overall in the combat. With each legion you equip, you get a couple of new sword moves.
The sword strikes Sieg uses are limited to a handful of slashes that were obviously taken out of Dante's playbook. You are hacking (and shooting, later on) your way though dozens and dozens of enemies, but Chaos Legion lacks the depth of DMC or DW. The gameplay in Chaos Legion is sort of like a combination of Devil May Cry and Dynasty Warriors. The game is only five hours long, though, and that just isn't enough time for the characters and story to develop into anything you can really care about. Sieg's mission is to stop a man named Victor Delacroix from collecting three artifacts that, when combined, would merge the spiritual plane with the real world. The story in Chaos Legion follows Sieg Warheit, a young man that has the ability to summon monsters called legions to help him in battle. Chaos Legion is pure rental material and nothing more. The bland graphics and limited number of enemy types only further the feeling of repetitiveness. The problem is that Chaos Legion doesn't offer you enough variety when dispatching those enemies so the game becomes very repetitive within the first couple of levels. It seems that such a statement should be impossible to associate with a game that regularly throws dozens of enemies at you at any given time, but no other word describes Chaos Legion quite as well as boring?.
