This is without a shadow of a doubt one of the best games to come out this year. It's essentially Tony Hawk's Pro Skater/SSX Tricky-inspired gameplay and Jet Set Radio/Bomb Rush Cyberfunk aesthetics/music combined with the stage designs and sense of speed of a 3D Sonic game. All of that while you are driving a train. Denshattack was one of my most anticipated releases of 2026, and it overdelivered. Still can't get …

This is some of the most fun I've had with a new original release in a while. It's like a mix of Pro Skater, Jet Set Radio Future, and the good Sonic games. Fun and creative controls, incredible soundtrack by some of the gaming industry greats, and a fun and colorful cast. The story is literally insane and it makes the game so much better. I need everybody to play this game ASAP!!! EDIT: Just finished the game and …

Pure joy in video game form. GOTY 2026? When I saw the initial reveal for Denshattack, I was blown away by the quirkiness on display: Here was this Dreamcast game, 25 years too late, where you get to do skateboard tricks... As a train?! That looks awesome! I really hope they can deliver - and oh boy did they deliver. Starting off with the aesthetics... WOW! The art style is fantastic, and the visuals pop in a way …

The best way i could review this game is like this: Imagine you are making a Sonic game, the speed, the hidden objects in a stage, etc, and then you suddendly have the idea of combining it with Subway Surfers, you mix it up with the style of Crazy Taxi, the music of Jet Set Radio... And then you put a Train skin. That's basically Denshattack, is a game of clearing a stage in the lowest time possible, getting the …

This game has to be made by people who think Rail Canyon and Bullet Station were the best levels in Sonic Heroes and you know what? They're right. I've only just beat the first chapter and wow I can already tell this is going to be one of the best games to come out this year.

neutral · AI labelView post →Normally I review a game to say "how much is this worth your time and money." Not today. (tldr: it's fun and silly and a rocket ride of an on-rails adrenaline rush.) Today. Today I give this game a positive review for the most EXCLUSIVE reward in all of video games: Denshattack defaults its master sound volume at 50% instead of 100%. I started the game and didn't get tinnitus. 11/10 since I still have speakers and eardrums.

It's a fascinating hodgepodge of skateboard game mechanics, endless runner mechanics, and some light burnout/rhythm-y stuff, but really it's the game's unrelenting energy that sells it.

After playing the demo I was a little worried it would start to feel repetitive. Thankfully, they add in so much spectacle while they mix up what you are doing moment to moment on each level, that you really don't know what's around the next turn. With alternate routes, collectibles and challenges to do, I see myself going back to…

($14.99) - take a skateboarding game like Olliolli, crank the ridiculousness by 20, give it a Dreamcast-era aesthetic, and then make the skateboard into a train. and it has a killer OST featuring everyone from Lotus Juice to Takenobu Mitsuyoshi store.steampowered.com/app/2524850/...

The red-green drift meter attached to releasing a trigger doesnt work for me. R3 is never great as a quick timed action button, either. Also tried changing the mappings but then the analog was required for tricks and I want to use the face buttons so it goes back on the shelf.
