    • “Its graphics are amazing and so is the storyline.”
    • “I didn't think this game was directly from SNK, but it's true that this game is from SNK. I'm very excited when SNK releases an open world MMORPG game. The graphics are very beautiful even though I'm playing it on Snapdragon 665/662, it's very light and smooth, the storytelling is good. Good job SNK.”
