SAMURAI SHODOWN -90% OFF! [historical low]

I'm super confused about this. Why does a 2 year old game need to run beta tests?

+1 xD

Til 21st June.

I'm just assuming though, since that's when the individual DLC characters sale ends.

Rules for bundles are different from regular sales, I think it could last forever but will likely expire on 21st june like Garlboh said.

On https://steamdb.info/sales/ we can see some editors are exploiting the bundle specific rules to overcome the -90% barrier.

Here's an example : https://store.steampowered.com/app/673450/Time_Lock_VR_1/?curator_clanid=4777282

it ends on june 21th
just go to any of the individual dlc pages and you'll find the sale countdown there

The base game has 16 characters, which is a pretty amount for a fighting game, and for some reason they disabled the base game-only purchase, but with 90% off the complete version totally worth it. Also, this game is very niche and has nothing to do with Guilty Gear.

You could get this if you just want the base game, it's a few cents cheaper and includes the base game and a few DLC.

They never had the base game on its own for sale on Steam, ever.

When they released the game on Steam, they sold the base game and Season Pack 1 together in a bundle, as "Steam Edition", which is this: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/21032/SAMURAI_SHODOWN_STEAM_EDITION/ - for $50 USD (normal retail price was $73.50 according to SteamDB.)

The first season pass characters were originally $20 on console, but they made them free for PC. The base game is $60 on PS4, with no characters, and it's priced at $50 on Steam, with four bonus characters. So you're not paying for things "you don't need", they're bundled with the game at no additional cost, and cheaper than consoles. It's just priced and bundled strangely.

They also had four more characters in Season Pass 2, and four more in Season Pass 3. Both were also released as bundles with the main game (as Kiwami and Deluxe Packs.)

for 4€ more i have taked all them. in fighter games always better to play with a few more characters than less :)

At least buy Iroha ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I feel you man! You normally have to decide if you'll get a game in 2-3 years. Whatever lasts longer than that either remains or it gets taken down. Games with license like Marvel will always be risky and possibly be taken down a lot sooner than people expect. e.g. Marvel's Avengers or Midnight Suns might be taken down at some point due to licensing.

You can always ask for a refund if you don't like the game
