I didn't think the game would ever be brought over to the West, but it has been done! North America got its digital-only version launched today while Europe will get physical and digital versions sometime next year. Senran Kagura Burst is a straight-up Beat-em-Up featuring incredibly busty schoolgirl ninjas. I remember first hearing about this game and saw some of the screenshots to the game. It looked really dumb. But then they eventually showed a footage of the gameplay and I saw some combo demonstrations and was then interested. If you can look past the copious amount of fan-service and you like beat-em-ups, this game can be very enjoyable. The combat mechanics is similar to Dynasty Warriors where weak attacks can chain into strong ones and a powerful signature attack can be unleashed. Furthermore, combos can be continued in the air for aerial combos similar to the Marvel vs. Capcom series where the player strikes an opponent into the air and continues another string of attacks in the air. Animations are fluid and the attacks string together really well so that combat doesn't feel clunky. The characters do follow the usual animé tropes, but they do give a fun personality to the cast. The game feels a lot like an animé, overall. It was a bold move for XSEED Games to bring Senran Kagura Burst over, but I'm glad they did. There aren't that many beat-em-ups and we've gotten a good amount of them this year. Senran Kagura Burst is a good addition to the beat-em-ups released this year and hopefully encourages publishers or even XSEED themselves to bring over Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus as well.
