The original Last Blade was first released by SNK way back in 1997, with a port to Xbox One coming in May of 2017. But SNK weren’t sitting back and counting the cash all those decades ago and in 1998 they managed to update things enough to warrant the release of The Last Blade 2. So guess what? Yep, that now has also made its way to Xbox One!
Available from today for a £6.39 download, The Last Blade 2 brings in a variety of systems over the original The Last Blade. Characters now have their own Sword Quality, are able to Repel enemy attacks, pull of Desperation and Super Desperation Moves and turn them into a sequence known as Super Cancel.
With the fight intense, ACA NEOGEO The Last Blade 2 should be something that appeals to all those retro lovers out there, especially now that the Xbox One version sees the introduction of game difficulty settings an worldwide leaderboards.
Should you wish to give it a shot, then the Microsoft Store will be able to sort you out.
