TheSixthAxisMiguel MoranSep 20188/10It's almost heartbreaking how much fun SNK Heroines is, because all of that fun is wrapped up in a fetishistic presentation that didn't need to be there in the first place. By putting out a cool, casual-friendly fighting game that happened to only have a roster of female characters, SNK could have reached a wider audience of people and rekindled some of the magic they made 18 years ago with Gals' Fighters. Instead, though, SNK put Mai Shiranui in a cowprint bikini and gave Terry Bogard breasts, alienating a massive amount of people in the process. SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy is one of the funnest new fighting games I've played this year, but I can only hope that a future installment trades the fanservice for familiarity, and gives us the Gals' Fighters sequel the world deserves.

Switching WorldsHooshan TorabiSep 20188.6/10SNK HEROINES ~Tag Team Frenzy~ is made with love from the creators and it shows. It's accessibility is meant for players of all skill types, neither catering to only the hardcore players or only casuals; just both at once. There is plenty of content to unlock and plenty of ways to customize your character. Even if it's not as sharp as the PlayStation 4 version, it's still eye-candy on the Switch. The soundtrack is also pretty good with the best remixes of past songs. There's enough single player for the solo player and co-op/versus for players of two, but up to 8 can play together both offline and online. Above all, it's just fun to play. Looking forward to the future characters being added to the roster.

GamePittSep 20188.5/10Overall, SNK Heroines Tag Team Frenzy is one of the simplest pick-up and play fighting games I’ve played in years. The gameplay is very smooth with it’s nice and easy gameplay that’s quick to get used to. The girls all look great and being able to customise them adds variety to your team without being just a colour palette swap. Best yet, you don’t need to pay real money (DLC) in order to swap colours and styles around, like you would in other games out there these days.

Sick CriticNathanael HuesoSep 20182/10I think the only real use for this game is as a prank gift. Don’t buy the physical version because that can be resold or returned. I’m talking about logging into your friend’s console account and buying the digital copy so that it’s in their game library forever, a reminder of life’s cruelty. You know what? It’s not worth the money or embarrassment of them finding out you knew about this game.
