Original game was from Sega Saturn console but remastered for Xbox family.
Not on sale or anything but cheap enough. Just wanted to post for fun b/c it was one of if not thee best beat'em up games of all time. There was no game like it when it was released in 1996 and i don't think there's any that surpasses this level of production value even in 2024. Its fighting system is pretty good even for modern day standards. I was trying to see if it was available for PC but sadly only xbox family.
It's the most detailed/complex beat'em up game that i know of w/ rpg elements like controlling stat upgrades on your character and several "arch types" to choose from. Complex fighting mechanics not just punch/kick/special; we're talking blocks, air combos, full screen explosions, giant beam fireballs, chip damage. Symphony-like soundtrack. Even has alternate storyline branches/endings to choose from. For replayability, it offers Arena mode to pvp (human or npc) with your favorite storyline characters even nonplayable ones from Story mode. (bosses, minor/major characters, cannon fodders, wild animals, elderly, etc.)
Storymode: 2 players local/ online
Arenamode: 4 local/ 12 players online

Looks like low budget was used to recreate 2011 trailer and cover, makes sense. Here's a link to the game's original intro w/ "legit" anime touch plus gameplay. I think in the game you can also choose original Saturn graphics or the remastered graphics.

Own it on Xbox, still don't like it.
Found it to be very tedious. Lots of talking and very repetitive combat.
