Overview
- Denshattack!, made by Spanish studio Undercoders and published by Fireshine with Boltray, launched mid‑July and is available on Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Steam and as a Day One Game Pass release for Xbox.
- Early response has been strongly positive, with Steam user reviews labeled "Very Positive," placement on Steam’s Popular New Releases and a Metacritic aggregate around the high‑80s, driving notable initial sales visibility.
- The core hook is a trick‑driven arcade system that has players performing Tony Hawk‑style combos while piloting trains across 60+ stages in a stylized, climate‑impacted version of Japan with races, score attacks, boss fights and collectibles.
- Reviewers and players singled out the cel‑shaded, Jet Set Radio‑inspired visuals and a high‑energy soundtrack featuring guest contributions coordinated by Kid Katana from Richard Jacques, Ryo Nagamatsu, Takenobu Mitsuyoshi and Tee Lopes.
- Critics praise the game’s addictive score‑chasing and presentation but warn that a steep, layered learning curve, inconsistent physics and frequent scripted set‑pieces make the experience feel uneven for some players.
