Critic Reviews for SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos
SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos is a weird curiosity in the history of fighting games. While it did have the monumental task of following up on one of the best fighters ever made, it's hard to deny that it's a bit of a letdown. It does have bright spots like some unique character choices and a range of fantastic sprites, but it doesn't stand up with Capcom or SNK's best. Meanwhile, the PS4 port itself is as okay as okay can be. It won't blow you away with extra content or features - it's simply a solid way to play SVC Chaos.
SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos is a very average arcade fighter, a game that wasn't great over 20 years ago, and still isn't now. For retro-fighter enthusiasts, there's some interesting aspects to this port in the form of an online mode and the fact the whole thing looks and sounds so great. However, with a very low player count in its lobbies, and nothing more besides a gallery and practice mode by way of extras, this is a very hard experience to recommend to anyone outside of history buffs.
SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos is a game with many problems when it was originally released in the past, but it is still an important piece of SNK and Capcom's history. The relaunch features quality-of-life additions such as online with netcode via rollback. In the end, however, it is worth more for curiosity for those who do not know it or for those who want to remember.

SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos might not be the match of the millennium, but it still promises a good time. The team at Code Mystics has set out to make sure this crossover is the definitive version of the title.
Having a crossover like SNK vs Capcom: SVC Chaos returning is something that is always worth highlighting, as it was a landmark title upon its initial release and is an essential title for anyone who enjoys a good fighting game. Unfortunately, the attachment to the arcade version of the game took away some of the shine that this port could have had by bringing everything that was best about it.
