There definitely seems to be a little bit of a theme here. Not only do we have another weekly addition of a NEOGEO title on Xbox One, but this one brings yet another Samurai Shodown title to the console.
Should you not have found your life complete with Samurai Shodown 1, 2 or 3, then the next game in line may well be able to help. ACA NEOGEO Samurai Shodown IV is here and whilst it was first released by SNK way back in 1996, if you’re a retro fan and need another fighter, this should be it.
Priced at £6.39 and available from the Microsoft Store right now, Samurai Shodown IV will see you utilising Anger Gauges to ensure the fight is even more intense and the chance to challenge Amakusa in order to save the modern day world.
You’ll find that all the usual ACA NEOGEO additions are available so expect to find worldwide leaderboards giving you the chance to match up against your mates, and the amendment of difficulty settings to help when the fight gets too tough – or too easy.
It’s not going to be a game that appeals to all, but if you fancy a new fighter and are happy to go all retro, then ACA NEOGEO Samurai Shodown IV one of the best bets yet.
