Abstract: If your parents ever disparaged your video game obsession as a huge waste of time, they're either a) out of touch or b) lacking in vision. That may sound overly harsh, but there's some truth in this take. Esports, the video game industry's competitive gam...
Portable play runs serviceably enough, Same great gameplay and controls of the other console versions…
…Though there is a graphical downgrade no matter how you play, Not much additional content and you still have to purchase season 1 DLC after nearly a year
If you have access to other consoles, or if you aren't interested in playing Samurai Shodown on the go, the Switch version of the game might not be the best way to experience the game. However, it's still fundamentally the same great combat, so if you're...
Simple yet engaging gameplay mechanics, Great gateway fighting game for beginners, Diverse cast of characters, Focuses more on strategic combat instead of flashy combos
Severely outdated story mode, Single player content is somewhat lacking
SNK has done a great job at reintroducing the classic fighting series into the modern fighting game scene. The high risk, high reward gameplay is fresh yet familiar. The simplicity of the game makes it easily accessible to new players but at the same time...
Te weinig content, Opzet verhaal niet van deze tijd, Eindbaas te makkelijk
Helaas is dat het algehele gevoel dat Samurai Shodown achterlaat, voor een opvolger zijn er te weinig pepers gebruikt. De boel is niet door elkaar geschud, de game is niet pittig genoeg. Het is allemaal veel te braaf. De opties zijn te beperkt en na een p...

Dictates a measured and tactical approach, Looks fabulous, True to spirit of original, Dojo mode is ambitious
Can feel clunky compared to modern beat-em-ups, Basic structure, Unadorned story mode
Overall, Samurai Shodown looks great but in gameplay terms feels like something of a throwback to the early days of beat-em-ups, when hardware restrictions forced a more considered, tactical approach. That means that habitual random button-mashers will ha...
Sterke en diepgaande gameplay, toffe personages, stijlvolle presentatie
Ietwat beperkt qua mogelijkheden, Ghost AI valt nog wat tegen

Samurai Shodown is niet onnodig complex en bezit genoeg diepgang, waardoor het een fighting game is die bijna iedereen moet kunnen aanspreken. Het gebrek aan een goede Story Mode mag de pret niet drukken, want Samurai Shodown speel je voor de geweldige mu...

The battles are still the same old intense standoffs as you look for opportunities to land your most powerful strikes, where timing and spacing are all that matters, The stylish slowdowns when you land a particularly damaging hit are still present, The hi
Two of my favourite characters, Cham-cham and Gen-an, are not in the game on not on the list of upcoming DLC characters, The load times are bit long for my liking, I wish the cloth and hair would have been hand-animated to match their classic forms rather
I can't tell you how happy I am to finally see a new Samurai Shodown game after so long. Fighting games have been on the rise over the last decade, which is great, but none provided the unique, tense, stylish battles that Samurai Shodown did. There are a...
Fedele allo stile originale della serie, Un picchiaduro per veri professionisti e amanti del genere, Evoluzione dello stile visivo decisamente appropriato,
Poche modalità di gioco, La modalità Storia meritava di essere sviluppata meglio, Graficamente ben riuscito, ma non eccelso
Samurai Shodown torna con una nuova veste grafica, ma restando fedele alle meccaniche di gioco originali, facendo di tutto per essere etichettato come un “picchiaduro tecnico” e meno chiassoso rispetto ai concorrenti. Infatti, pur introducendo una serie d...
