Choose from a roster of 17 fighters, each with a distinct look and fighting style, and face off in one-on-one battles. The characters are 3D models rendered with a cel-shaded anime look.
Combat is fast-paced and built around Roman Cancels, which let you shape your battle strategy, alongside mechanics such as Burst and defensive options. Tutorials and mission challenges introduce the systems and provide practice with combos.
Arcade mode pairs a series of fights with character scenes, while Story mode presents its narrative as an animated, visual-novel-style experience. M.O.M. mode lets you customize a fighter with earned skills and moves; online modes include ranked matches, player rooms, and spectating.
Players often praise the striking cel-shaded visuals, lively character designs, and fast, rewarding combat, with Roman Cancels and distinct fighter styles standing out. The soundtrack and tutorial also receive positive mentions. Some reviewers enjoy the story as an anime-like presentation, while others find it overly long and cutscene-heavy; inactive online play and the smaller roster are recurring drawbacks.
