Initial comments

• "It was released in 2010 in Japan and 2011 in North America and Europe" - release dates could be more specific to each region, but this is just a suggestion
• "creatures known as the Twisted have appeared from beneath Manhattan and decimated the city" - Manhattan isn't a city, would it sound better being replaced with "New York City" or creatures known as the Twisted have appeared from beneath Manhattan and decimated New York City?
• The lead summarises the article well so this meets the GA criteria
• "Aya can receive briefings for missions, view additional documents, and buy and customize new weapons" - no need for this extra "and" here
• "When activated, Aya entered "Liberation Mode", a state enabling her to move around the battlefield" - why is this in past tense?
• "a company created by former Capcom staff members who had first worked on the high-definition remaster of Rez" - this part has no citation
• Is there no track list for the Music section?
• "Reorchestrations of two pieces of classical music" - should have a hyphen

References

• No dead links, though I don't know what's happened to the European and North American external links...

Close - promoted

Honestly I could find nothing wrong with this article that would have made this be put on hold, so I'll promote this straight away. The above points I found were mostly minor prose issues, though I would recommend addressing them if you want to FAC this. Some minor points included a sentence being in past tense and no specific release dates in the lead, but other than that this was a great article. Its comprehensiveness and good prose makes it a Good Article, well done ☠ Jaguar ☠ 18:53, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
