Multiplayer in Samurai Shodown now has rollback netcode on most platforms, with only Xbox One and Nintendo Switch falling behind.
The beta will begin at 5 PM PDT for those who own the game and continue until there's an "improvement in quality", per SNK.
The delay is due to “various setbacks and extenuating circumstances." However, a second community beta is coming this month.
PC players who own the game on Steam can participate in the beta, which includes the base game's roster and all DLC characters.
Along with Steam, rollback netcode is also coming to PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Epic Games Store players in the future.
