The verdict
A gorgeous, anime-faithful Naruto Storm-style fighter with a short story and shallow combat. Skip it at full price, or if you want deep or online play.
Great for
Demon Slayer fans who want to replay the story through Mugen Train with flashy visuals, bought on sale
Main risk
Short, cutscene-heavy game with shallow combat, laggy dead online and paid DLC characters, so it feels overpriced
What players love
