Best Fighting Games of 2019
Second Runner-Up: Dead or Alive 6
News Editor Giuseppe Nelva: Dead or Alive 6 is a very solid entry in the fighting game genre. While it doesn’t represent a revolution compared to previous entries in the series, it’s a fast and fluid game that is entertaining both to play and to watch.
It features very unique mechanics that give it a very different feel compared to other games in the genre, but one of the major innovations in this game is a solid set of tutorials and features to help newcomers feel more at home.
Its release certainly suffered by unclear messaging that made many wonder if the franchise was still true to itself, Team Ninja has since righted the course openly catering to the core fanbase. That being said, the DLC monetization remains arguably too aggressive.
