Is Nekketsu Tairiku - Burning Heroes still worth playing in 2026?
Burning Heroes is a little-known Enix RPG built around eight heroes with intertwined stories and a carefully theatrical presentation. The turn-based system stays classic, but the variety of characters and the epic tone make it an endearing curiosity for fans of nineties Japanese RPGs. The language barrier limits access, and its sometimes slow pace asks for patience. For anyone who enjoys digging up the forgotten gems of the Super Famicom, it is well worth the detour today.
