    Regardless of its issues, I'm loving ArcRunner on the Nintendo Switch; it's a very addictive roguelike, gameplay loop. I especially love the online mode, the selection of weapons, and the perks. Though I wish there were a few more characters to play as, that's just a personal gripe. ArcRunner is a fast paced shooter and if you love roguelikes, this is a no-brainer!

    Despite its shortcomings—and they are plentiful— it can feel great to give into the temptation to jam to some synth-wave and gun down some nameless bots for a few hours. It’s just a shame that, apart from the killer aesthetics, there isn’t much to compel players to return to its neon-saturated streets once they’ve finished their initial playthrough.

    ArcRunner is a cyberpunk roguelike shooter that embodies the phrase: Live, Die, Upgrade, and Repeat. With so many different weapons and augments to choose from, you can build your playstyle however you wish.

    Overall, ArcRunner is a brilliant cyberpunk-inspired roguelite that just keeps giving. The art style might not appeal to everybody but the combat mechanics and enemy patterns will definitely appeal to most, making this game approachable to anybody looking for a rush in a game. With its multitude of weapons and gadgets, you’ll have plenty of options to build your own playstyle and claim your prize at the end.

    I feel confident in saying that ArcRunner is worth playing. While I didn’t like all the weapons available, the gunplay is great and I never felt frustrated at the game. Every death was my mistake, and I need to correct that for my next run.
