Summary

I haven’t actually heard of this game series before but I am very familiar with the games from this time period. Why do I say this? Simple, Breakers is very much a 2D fighter in the vein of Street Fighter and Fatal Fury going for solid 16-bit graphics, flashy end-of-round hits, and a deep chest of moves. It all plays really well and even the worst players can mash their way through, any knowledge of any fighting game ever pays off here so honestly, it’s a very accessible game. The devs have done a great Jon of making a budget collection that houses two great games and a slew of extras from concept art to interviews and sound tests. I came into this game as a noob but left a fan.
