    The developers of "DariusBurst Another Chronicle EX+" have put a lot of effort into it.

    The Darius series has been one of the consistently challenging and impressive arcade classics that has evolved while retaining its core charms over the years. The collections released previously in the year point to this legacy both from the arcades and home consoles, so the Switch has gotten a great taste of what it has had to offer over the years.

The collections released previously in the year point to this legacy both from the arcades and home consoles, so the Switch has gotten a great taste of what it has had to offer over the years. This much newer iteration is impressive in its own right but perhaps not as well-suited to the Switch as you’d hope. Certainly it has a great overall look and plays faithfully to the series, but the screen scaling coming over from the arcades is simply an issue even when playing in docked mode but I’d almost consider it unplayable in handheld as the details just end up being too small to see well. The play is there, including the branching paths and some other elements, but in this case perhaps faithfulness to the source material is more of an impediment than a strength, though fans of the arcade unit will no doubt disagree.

    While there are many questionable choices present, DariusBurst: Another Chronicle EX+ remains an enjoyable shmup.

    Play it on your TV and you’ll enjoy this fish fry well enough, but those who primarily play in handheld will want to proceed with caution.

    I reviewed a compilation of Darius arcade games last year and found that it handled the use of multi-screen gaming better; if Another Chronicle was more in that fashion it would be a bit more comfortable to play. Still, it’s another solid shooter in a system that’s chock-a-block with them.
