Groove Coaster: Future Performers

Fun rhythm game in which you play along while racing down tracks that twist and turn to the music

Groove Coaster: Future Performers is still a solid entry in the rhythm game series. The base game mechanics provide a fun rhythm game experience for a wide variety of skill levels - if you won't feel overwhelmed by the visuals. The soundtrack remains excellent, as always. The smaller song selection is disappointing, while the main story mode is fine if you can power through an uninteresting tale. Series veterans may come away a little underwhelmed, but newcomers may find this to be an enjoyable first entry before diving into the older but ultimately deeper Groove Coaster: Wai Wai Party.

Groove Coaster Future Performers is a good rhythm game that presents a must-play sensory spectacle with its music, even if it's not for every type of player. Its Story mode is truly thrilling, but features many frustrations due to being incomplete and trying to unnecessarily pad the game for extra play value. The sum of its parts is worth it, though it could have even receive a Perfect evaluation were it treated with a little more care.

I had great fun with GROOVE COASTER FUTURE PERFORMERS, especially with how different it feels to its predecessor; it fills me with energy! 🎶
