Samurai Shodown for Xbox OneMost of these listings turn out to be accurate, especially one’s rated on the Korean board. The game was initially announced only for PS4, but reports suggested that it will be coming to PC, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch as well. This, however, confirms at least the Xbox One version of the game.
The game will be playable at PAX East this and will be coming early 2019 this year to consoles. If you haven’t seen the trailer for the game yet, check it out below.
The game has been developed using Unreal Engine 4 which many anime-styled games have been using recently, including Jump Force and Dragon Ball FighterZ. We’re excited to see what this has to offer in the fighting games scene, and how it will do in EVO. Dragon Ball FighterZ is still going strong and recently GT’s Goku was confirmed for the game as well, make sure you read about that here.
SNK has been constantly pushing out excellent fighting games titles recently and we’re happy to see another franchise being revived like this.
