“There was a time that many risky games were made for a certain platform that, with a fairly die-hard fanbase, kept the little handheld going long beyond it was officially supported by its own developer. This led to many unique titles being developed that really weren’t found elsewhere and Scarlet Nexus not only looks but even at times feels just like one of those games that would have been right at home on the Vita. Bandai Namco has experimented in the past with some interesting anime-styled takes on genre in the past, especially with Code Vein in 2019, and their latest take on an action-RPG is one that stands out in more ways than one.”
