Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r] is a super slick, fast-paced fighter that manages to successfully straddle the line between being instantly accessible and welcoming for newcomers and in-depth enough to satisfy hardcore fight fans. Its line-up of twenty-one fighters are much more exciting than their anime stylings may suggest, and the Chronicles mode gives fans of the visual novel element of the game plenty to sink their teeth into.
PJ O'Reilly · Mar 08, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full reviewDespite its disappointing online issues, Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r] is one of the most impressive fighting games I’ve ever played. It’s oozing with style, it’s shockingly accessible, and the back-and-forth exchanges prompted by the Grind Grid system make for non-stop excitement in every match.
Matthew Zawodniak · Feb 26, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full reviewLike many modern fighting games, Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r] is so unique. While it has a really steep learning curve that may turn casual fighting game players off, it is incredibly satisfying if you put the time in. If you love fighting games and want a challenge, then look no further.
Michael Ruiz · Feb 21, 2020 Reviewed on PS4Read full reviewUnder Night In-Birth Exe: Late[cl-r] might just be the best fighting game available on Switch. In fact, I’ll just say it: it is the best fighting game on Switch. It doesn’t have 40+ characters and it doesn’t have the history or familiarity of franchises such as Street Fighter, but it doesn’t need them. Under Night In-Birth Exe: Late[cl-r] simply puts up a bloody good fight and that’s all you can ask for.
Richard Seagrave · Feb 20, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full reviewI would ordinarily say any fans of the previous entries will likely enjoy this, but given that if you own UNIST on PS4, you’ll be getting updated to the new version whether you want it or not, there’s not much else to be said there. If you haven’t gotten into the series yet, I highly recommend Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r], and now is a good time to get into it, being at the peak of its popularity with featured brackets at many major tournaments around the world and a fairly large player population, and it’s definitely worth the $39.99 USD if you don’t own it already or you want it on Switch.
Chris Melchin · Feb 19, 2020 Reviewed on PS4Read full reviewUnder Night In-Birth Exe: Late[st] is easily one of the most niche-oriented games I’ve played in recent memory, but if you’re looking for a well-polished and content-heavy fighting game to warm you up for Soul Calibur VI or the next Guilty Gear (whenever the heck that will be), go for it without a doubt. It features tons of modes, a nice roster, enough hours worth of tutorial lessons for you to start considering attending EVO as a contender, and a very good level of presentation you would definitely expect from an Arc-endorsed fighter. The game might have a confusing name for newcomers, but it’s a lot more accessible than you’d ever expect. A must for fighting fans.
Leo Faria · Aug 23, 2018 Reviewed on PCRead full reviewAs someone who’s experienced and loves faster-paced fighting games, this is an easy win and Under Night’s formula tweaks help keep just different enough you feel like you’re mastering a weapon. However, this isn’t for everyone and if you’re after something more feature complete like a proper story mode.
Owen Chan · Feb 21, 2021 Reviewed on PCRead full reviewWhen the fighting is as fun as this, it is difficult not to recommend Under Night wholeheartedly. The MIA multiplayer and lack of localisation is a concern and does taint what is otherwise a fantastic 2D fighter.
Shaun Hughes · May 04, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full reviewStylish, methodical, and encouraging attacking gameplay, this latest Under Night In-Birth title is as exciting as always, and Switch owners that have yet to try the series out are in for a treat, with plenty of modes, a lengthy visual novel chronicle, online play, and a varied cast of characters. Despite the array of balance and move tweaks, though, this just isn't enough of an improvement over the previous title, with only one extra character being introduced.
Az Elias · Feb 27, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full reviewIf you’re looking for a solid fighting game with tons of content, replay value and a deep story, Under Night In-Birth Exe: Late [cl-r] is a must-have whether you’re a newcomer to the saga or a seasoned veteran.
