Well at least doesnt seems to be Kenshin Himura, so we will not have that awkward moment of promoting a character created by a pedo

Yoshitora came from space btw

Your prayers have been answered.

SNK doesn't look outside of Japan in general. At best they look toward Korea or China on the good days. Don't get your hopes up.

So, I'm trying to understand how to play with Warden, but I don't know what's supposed to be his main gameplay strategy

He only has 2 special moves, a Parry, and the shoulder tackle, I don't know what's the point of the first considering that everyone has a universal parry, and the later doesn't generate knockdown, so I don't know if I'm supposed to follow up with other move

Also, I don't get his command moves at all, he is supposed to press MS or HS close to his opponent, but I don't know what's the point of it.

Maybe I should have watched the analysis of the characters in the evvent yesterday

Few months late to the party, but just got the Switch version this week! First impressions make me think it's a good port: runs smoothly, music is good, it looks great in handheld... Just the load times seem a bit long at times.

I've never been much of a fighting game player outside of casual Smash Bros., but played Samurai Shodown! 2 on the Neo Geo Pocket of all places and was really impressed.
They're not messing around with the difficulty in this new one though, I had to drop it to 2/5 just to complete my first run through the story mode with Charlotte. I also can't pull of the half-rotations on the D-Pad yet, kinda miss the clicky NGPC stick haha. Would've liked to see more women on the base roster too, the men outnumber them like two to one it seems.

Two questions: First, is there any sort of online player base on Switch? I didn't find any matches the one time I tried (but admittedly didn't wait long at all).
Secondly, how does DLC work in this game? Is it just more characters, or do they include extra stages, more music, etc.? The eShop listings and trailers make it seem like it's just new fighters, nothing else.

The season pass was free at one point, right? I think it was for the first one. ARGH, I guess I just got it for the PS4 and not the XB1 like I should have, because for some reason the PS4 version went out of sale really quickly on Amazon.ca so I ended up getting the XB1 version, but of course it's now like $26 for each season pass and I ain't paying that much.

Yeah. The first Season Pass was free for everyone at launch for a week, even for the people that didn't buy the game.

I already have this game on the Switch, but I think now, with the discount and the future online update, is a good time to pick the steam version.

I feel like the Switch version (digital) never goes on sale.

I was looking into getting a physical copy and people on eBay are out of their minds; copies for for double retail price. It's insane. Certainly not worth it for someone like me where it's a curiosity more than a must have from a series I'm invested in.

Sorry, I should have said! PS4. Is the game not crossplay?
I'm FrightZone82. Let me know when would be a good time for you, I'm in the UK!

Times are a little wary since Im in Chile and from experience I can only play with UK friends on weekends, but next one I will leave my houses. Maybe in 2 more sundays?

And no, no crossplay

Still need to play one goddamn team match to pop the platinum. Driving me mad!
PSN ID is FrightZone82 if anyone can help.
If not, praying rollback will get enough people playing to find a match, but not getting my hopes up.

You may need to wait quite a while, considering the state of the beta.
It's kind of completely busted.
