Best shoot them up yet
This game is one of the best shooter em ups so far with crazy levels and crazy game mechanics .

Fun take on a classic game genre.
I just want to preface this review by saying that I never have played any other game in the Raiden series (except maybe on Playstation; don't remember) but I have heard of them so I decided to try this one out. I'm glad I did because it is a fantastic shoot em up style game. The action is on point and it has a nice difficulty curve for those not accustomed to these types of games. If you enjoy shmups and you are looking for a new take on an old franchise, give Raiden V a shot.

Great vertical shooter
This is a great old school vertical shooter from the older arcades. The physical game comes with a CD and art book that makes it worth getting it over the digital version

Really great on the go!
I missed out on playing Raiden V on the PS4 so when I saw it was coming to Switch I had to get it. This a great game on the go that works really well on the Switch. Playing on the go may be a turn of for some players due to the screen size. A lot of real estate is taken up by the hud so the actual gameplay screen is quite small on the Switch. I don’t mind at all but it could be a turn off for some. The graphics and sound are great. Controls work really well and I experienced no slow down at all. I highly recommend for any SCHMUP fan!

Shoot em up
This game is great for those who like the shoot em up games. Reminds me a lot of HAWK on mobile and somewhat like Rezogun on PS4 but this is a lot more high paced. I dont like how the background makes it hard to keep and eye on the targets. Its also a very short story line, but a very fun game to play on different modes with different weapons to work on beating the high scores.
