This is first fighting game I'm trying to commit myself too, and it's been great! I love the music and look of it and my favorite character has been Linne so far! I highly recommend this game, especially for new players like myself.

One of the best fighting games ever made, period. It should be addressed that the PC port by Cyclone Zero is not well-made. At the time of writing this review, the input reader still feels inferior to console. Additionally, there are occasional frame drops unrelated to PC specs. Network issues, however, have been fixed. The netplay experience on console and on PC is now, for all intents and purposes, identical. I'd strongly recommend at least trying this game out. It is a very addictive and satisfying experience. If you are new to the series or to fighting games in general, I'd recommend joining the main Discord server where there are always people willing to answer questions and/or direct you to resources to get you going. https://t.co/oioAvBMeRK

The initially atrocious PC port has been just about entirely fixed. Online matches work perfectly. If you've read reviews telling you to wait until the developers patch it: Stop waiting, and grab yourself one of the best fighting games released in the last decade.

This game is like crack. The system mechanics are the most enjoyable I've interacted with out of all the fighters I've played so far, the characters are all unique, everyone's just busted enough to make match-ups interesting, the list goes on. I highly recommend giving this game a chance if you're looking for something fresh and challenging. Now, if you're reading the reviews, I'm sure you've been hearing some pretty bad stuff about the PC port. I want you to know that most of the major network issues have been solved, but there are still many, less impactful, performance issues left to be fixed at the time I'm writing this review. Still, the port issues haven't stopped me from enjoying this game. I'd say give it a shot; If you don't like it, you could just refund it, or wait till the issues you're having are fixed. I wish you luck in navigating The Hollow Night, In-Birth.

Alright, now that the online is fixed I can give my opinion. The game itself is gorgeous. Superb music, incredible animation and splendid pixel art. In my opinion, this is top tier visually. Very good game, but sometimes I feel some of the combos are a bit too long, but the neutral game behind it is very enjoyable and the characters are very interesting. Where it's less enjoyable is the low amount of newcomers to the series online. So far, I very rarely see people at my level and as a consequence I get utterly destroyed to a point it's not really fun because I don't have much time to learn the game while I'm getting tenderized in the corner by 89 hits combos. You seem to have options to filter people by their rank, but so far everyone seem to be D rank no matter their skill level is. I assume that if most people stick to casual mode and/or lobbies, you won't be able to force the game to match you with people around your level. That said, this might be an issue that will resolve itself as time goes. Hopefully, more people will pick up the game, because when you fight someone at your level, this game is extremely fun. That said, I think the game is worth it to a point I'm willing to stick to it even if I must face much much stronger opponents. If you want a game that has a rank system that is similar to Street Fighter 6, you will probably be disappointed. That said, I think Under Night In-Birth II is a much better game than Street Fighter 6. Its main flaw is literally that not much people are playing it right now. At the moment of writing this review there are 2,113 people playing Under Night In-Birth II. The game launched two days ago... For comparison: - Tekken 8 has 43,338 people playing (launched today) - Street Fighter 6 has 9639 people playing (launched about seven months ago) - Guilty Gears Strive has 2,145 people playing (launched in 2021) I really hope this game can survive its terrible launch due to buggy online (that is now fixed). It would be a shame if this game remains niche and underground because I really think it deserves to be much more on top. Edit: FFS Tekken 7 beats us.
