Don't ever start with that bs rage art or de disconnection issues or people losing that just disconnect right before losing.

Praying for a 3D fighter in the near future to replicate Tekken's early successes, and miss out all the forced stance 50/50s and FOMO battlepass slop.
Steam review, 29 July 2026 · 239 hours played · 12 readers marked it helpfulAlso, this a full priced game and they AGRESSIVELY try to sell you their very hefty priced DLC (no you cannot practice with new characters nor with the new map), also they have a battlepass lol.

A further 9 reviews call the game buggy or broken without saying how, which is why they are counted separately rather than assigned to a theme. Counted by keyword across review text, so a review discussing two problems is counted under both. Read the reviews yourself.
