[quote]Just saying, but I do have a curator page. If you like my remarks about games, you can find more of them here: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44130985-TDP%27s-Gaming-Escapades [/quote] One of the most interesting ideas in entertainment is crossovers, as the very idea of previously unrelated characters interacting with each other and reacting to new situations is something that is very exciting. When done properly, these crossovers become some of the most enjoyable pieces of media that you have ever consumed; But we don't always see proper care put into making them by people who were in charge. Blade Arcus From Shining: Battle Arena is a crossover fighting game that brings characters from Shining Tears, Shining Wind, Shining Hearts and Shining Blade together for friday night fisticuffs. But in a twist, the development duties were put in the hands of Studio Saizensen, mostly known for their Umihara Kawase series and Code of Princess. Therefore, some might get very suspicious and think they are looking at nothing short of a disaster. Well, the game is not a disaster and is actually fun to play. However, it does have some glaring problems that warrant a not recommen…

It's an outdated version of the game. Consoles got the updates, and then arcade got a whole new title.

Game can be fun at times, but you're better off buying a game with better presentation and more content over this. Characters are very simple, story mode is repetitive. Not much here. Goofy game that can provide a few laughs with friends, but I can't justify $30 no matter how I spin it. Might be worth 5, 10 if you're wealthy
Recommended Dec 8, 2025
Playing in late 2025 for the first time... Great game, good fighting, sweet combo system.... graphics still have appeal.
