In fact, there’s a great Kurosawa samurai flick feeling to the whole thing. The stage backgrounds can be breathtaking, the fighters are well-animated and super moves ooze with style. Samurai Shodown runs a slightly oil painting visual look that really pops. It helps that the graphics are phenomenal. This is significant and something that I hope becomes more standard as new titles come out. Even when a huge amount of effects and action are taking place at once, the frame rate stays totally locked in.

The loading times are still a little long but it looks absolutely gorgeous, runs at a clean 4K at 60fps and will happily up itself if you have a monitor or TV that supports it, to 120fps.

Samurai Shodown works incredibly well on Xbox Series X. Online does work well though it’s just you may have very little chance to utilise it. Perhaps it has just been my own personal experience but I’ve barely been able to find anyone for ranked matches, and unless you have a friend to hand, even less playing casual. The simple fact is that there are just not enough folk playing it on Xbox, and the Series X enhancements have not seemed to change that. What is perhaps most disappointing however is the playerbase for the game. However there are plenty of tools that can be done to deal with them. There’s no one character that feels too overpowered although the spacers can feel particularly frustrating because of the speed of matches.

Even Specials are slow and leave you open and this means that damage comes quickly and matches can end in seconds if you know what you’re doing.Įvery character plays pretty differently and there are plenty of interesting match-ups that can be had. Instead, this is a game more about spacing and less about long chains of attacks. This is thanks to a particular type of design – maybe one that some players won’t enjoy – as it dishes out slow fighting action twenty-hit combos are incredibly rare. Practically every character feels phenomenal to control and all are fun to use. Crucially, the moment to moment fighting in Samurai Shodown is incredibly fine-tuned and perfected.
