Original article [Tue 22nd Mar, 2022 03:25 GMT]: When Fighting EX Layer: Another Dash made its debut on the Nintendo Switch last May, we described it as a solid Street Fighter EX spin-off, awarding it seven out of ten stars.

If you’ve not tried this one out on the Nintendo Switch just yet, it might be worth checking out at the start of April. In an update from the game’s developer Arika, the company’s president has revealed the netcode system update for the game will arrive on 1st April.

Arika uploaded a video of this incoming update earlier this month. Here’s a look:

Fighter EX Layer is a free download on the Nintendo Switch, but to access the complete experience, you need to purchase the “full package” for $24.99 (or your regional equivalent) – which contains more modes and characters.
