BlazBlue goes out in a blaze of glory, and although it lacks new ideas it certainly isn't short of characters, game modes, or thrilling action.
BlazBlue: Central Fiction is one of the finest fighting games to land on the Nintendo Switch catalogue. With its myriad of game modes, exquisite art style and visuals, surprisingly immersive plot and game mechanics which will prove welcoming for new players and challenging for veterans, BlazBlue: Central Fiction is a shining star that deserves a place in everyone's collection.

BlazBlue Centralfiction Special Edition may a few years late to Nintendo Switch, but that time hasn't dulled the sharpness of its 2D fighting package. Not only does it give the Ragna saga a proper send-off with a story mode that's so rich in character development it could be a full anime season in its own right, but it offers a staggering number of modes to keep you playing long after the credits roll. It runs silky-smooth docked or in handheld modes and runs like a dream online. The lack of an English dub still rankles, and new adopters are going to have to do a lot of research to understand what's going on, but it's well worth the effort.
Good value for money coupled with some of the most gorgeous 2D hand drawn graphics on the market and new player accessibility make this fighter an exceptional buy.
