Mediocre fighting game
Dark Rift delivers yet another mediocre fighting game. Nothing is bad, but nothing is great either. One thing that stands out is the storyline, which is often missing in many other fighting games, and the combo system. For fans of the genre, this game is worth a try, but for the average gamer, it's not recommended.
