Samurai Riot
A 2D beat-em-up where your moral choices reshape the story, split-screen co-op lets you and a friend punch through branching paths together.
GamerScout Verdict
Best for co-op fans who want more narrative stakes than a typical arcade brawler provides.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Samurai Riot
I've always appreciated beat-em-ups that respect co-op as more than a gimmick. Samurai Riot does something rare: it wraps a traditional arcade-style brawler around a narrative spine where choices actually fork the campaign. Play solo or grab a friend for split-screen, and your decisions determine which story threads unfold. The pixel work is clean, the combat loop solid enough for repeated runs, and knowing the game has multiple endings gives real weight to those moral pivots. It's not flawless. The Metacritic score sits at 64, and that's fair - the branching doesn't reinvent the wheel, and some players found the early pacing sluggish. But if you want a 2D brawler that knows it's more than button-mashing, and you're willing to replay it for hidden paths, this scratches that itch.
