We may have to wait for Absolver’s post-launch content and updates to see if it can truly becomes a legend among fighters, but even as is, it’s a highly-entertaining brawler. The visuals are stunning, the ambiance a perfect fit for a world of martial arts, and the incredibly deep fighting system is fun to experiment with, making the game accessible for both seasoned veterans and button-mashing newcomers...
