    You can't ask for a better beginning from a small Studio, Neon City Riders is a great metroidvania experience. of course, it needs to fix some technical issues, but when you dive in what the game has to offer you will find yourself ignoring some the problems you encountered along the way.

    Its definitely a 10/10 after the update(s). I waited until the difficulty was decreased and some features to help find the quest. I actuallyIts definitely a 10/10 after the update(s). I waited until the difficulty was decreased and some features to help find the quest. I actually dont really need those very much at all, i appreciate a challenge but i also like the ability to get a hint if im stuck.

    I rarely give out 10s. Once a year if that. This gane is a beautiful zelda 80s neon mutant cybord scifi dytopia.

    Its crazy. Its 80s. Its got mutants. The gameplay is quality zelda. That gives it a 9 after the updates, was 8.

    What pushes it to 10 is the 4k pixel Art. I havent seen a gane this detailed and beautiful since Horizon Zero Dawn. Its REALLY detailed though - you do need a 4k screen to really see it (on my ps4, not sure how far switch upscales).

    Just sayin - buy it. Its a good game, its beautiful and its cool. 10/10 and i rarely give those (only because the updates fixed 95% of the complaints in early reviews). You gotta look at the game pre and post patch. Just wait until you beat the intro and get to neon city. Your jaw Will drop. Ive never seen such detail - and the lighting made ne think HDR was enabled but its actually not. Im serious my jaw stopped and i just looked around the city for a long time. Thats when i knew i had to comes rate it. Have a good Day guys. DEFINITELY get this One on sale or at Full Price if you need an 80s mutant zelda game now (i think it was 20)    … Full Review »
