It is also worth mentioning that Senran Kagura leans very heavily into the sexual side of its selling point. This might not be the next eSports craze, but there’s definitely some fun to be had online with friends. Playing with other players is far more enjoyable than battling generic groups of computer-controlled ninjas, and there’s even the ability to group into teams. These range from your standard deathmatch to more novel modes such as capture the bra. While the single player portion is disappointing, Estival Versus has quite the offering of multiplayer modes. Yes, this game has micro-transactions for digital lingerie. You can even have them model in the game’s gallery mode, where you can put them into poses with names such as “Power Cleavage 5.” There’s also a Lingerie Lottery which serves a pretty self explanatory purpose, where you can use the aforementioned in-game currency or real money. There is some incentive to replay stages, though, as you earn an in-game currency that can be spent on new costumes for the girls. You can only clear so many waves of baddies before it grows tiresome, and sadly it happens pretty quickly in Senran Kagura Estival Versus. The level designs are so dull, devoid of character and passion, that it becomes hard to care about the gameplay. Sadly, the solid mechanics can’t save the game’s poor story mode.
