​The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors

A remaster of a remake - or something along those lines - this is an exceptional beat 'em-up experience.

The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors is a smart and slick reworking of a classic.

In a similar regard to Tengo Project's development of Wild Guns Reloaded, Tengo's game works well as a remake, because The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors retains the essence of a well-loved SNES beat-'em-up.

It’s like being a kid again, and stands as yet another essential Switch release you really should own.

The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors is a fun throwback to a simpler time, but the bonuses don't make it a top five beat-em-up.

The Ninja Saviors needs little introduction, proving to be as faithful to the SNES classic as one can get. The updated presentation and new characters make this a one-way trip worth playing once again.

The Ninja Saviors: The Return of the Warriors is a revival of an old game in a style that is rarely seen these days.

The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors is a bit light on content, but what is here is a worthy follow-up to the side-scrolling cult classic. Those that don’t mind a short runtime will have a great time minmaxing the Battery Gauge to cause massive damage.

Return of the Warriors is short but enjoyable fun that is great for die-hard players who lived through the arcade days, as well as a great opportunity for players looking for a different action experience.

The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors is a blessing for beat'em-up fans who want to experience a game that's a fitting tribute to the golden age of side scrolling beat'em-ups. Thanks to its wide cast of characters, it's possible to play through over and over and to experiment with new moves and techniques, while the audio ambiance is nothing short of fantastic. Both a sequel and a remake of a 16-bit game, Return of the Warriors is a beat'em-up gem on the Nintendo Switch catalogue.
