Choose one of 25 playable fighters and take on opponents in fast-paced 2D battles. Each character has a distinct set of abilities and a different approach to combat.
Build Gatling combos by chaining attack buttons, launch opponents with the overhead Dust attack, and cancel moves with Roman Cancels to create follow-up opportunities. Character-specific skills add further options to learn and develop.
Play modes include Survival, M.O.M., Training, Mission, Arcade, and Story, along with a Gallery featuring more than 100 illustrations. Online Ranked Matches track wins toward rank progression, while Player Matches let you play without recording your results.
Reviewers often enjoy the fast, intricate combat, varied fighters, and rock soundtrack, and some praise the online matchmaking and netcode. Several describe mastering the systems as rewarding, while others find the learning curve steep, particularly for newcomers.
