(PC players can purchase Fighting Road as DLC.) Fighting Road doesn’t just add a few dozen top New Japan wrestlers-it’s basically a wrestling visual novel, complete with static screens of Hiroshi Tanahashi and Kazuchika Okada doing what can only be called a manly, wrestling-centric version of flirting with your character, but with Fire Pro wrestling matches largely deciding the story’s outcome. Fire Pro Wrestling World: Fighting Roadįire Pro Wrestling World originally came out last year for the PC, but it finally hit the PlayStation 4 in August, with a whole new story mode centered around New Japan Pro-Wrestling in tow. Like, too many to list here.)- Garrett MartinĢ7. (Disclosure: So many people who worked on this game are friends with Paste’s games editors and/or former contributors to Paste.
Also the score, inspired by a variety of traditional musical idioms, is a beaut. Whatever you think about it, you pretty much have to admit it’s a true original in the games world. It’s a messy, awkward, poignant journey into the heart of America and the legends, jokes and horror stories that we’ve created about ourselves and our country. Like the folktales that inspire it-hell, like America itself, the country that inspires it-it’s not perfect and it’s not great but it has moments of greatness within it. Just sit back a spell and let these humble words suffice as Paste’s official opinion on this shaggy exploration of the power of folktales and storytelling: it’s good!
