BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle

In all honesty, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a 2D fighter try to have as much fun as this game does. Partially paywalled roster aside, BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle is a wonderfully fast and frantic fighter with a unique and easy-to-use control scheme that’s sure to appeal to both fighting game newbies and veterans alike. As the saying goes, “you can’t escape from crossing fate”. And, with the game being as good at it is, I’m not even sure why you’d want to try!

BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle is a fantastic fighting game, marred by what feels like suspicious DLC practice and very familiar assets. If you can see past that though, you're going to massively enjoy this intense and intuitive anime fighter.

Even in spite of its issues, Cross Tag Battle is an easy recommendation for even casual fans of fighting games, or of any of the franchises represented within it.
