If you’re hungry for more anime-inspired 2D fighters before Blazblue: Cross Tag Battle, you’ll be happy to know that Aksys has released Under Night In-Birth Exe: Late[st] for PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and even the PlayStation 3! The 2D fighter will feature a cast of twenty characters with unique fighting styles.
In Under Night In-Birth Exe: Late[st], a mysterious phenomenon, known only as “the Hollow Night,” has enveloped regions of Japan in darkness for several centuries. Every area affected by the Hollow Night is beset by shadowy monsters–known as “Voids”–who feed off of a power called “Existence.” Most humans don’t possess the ability to see or come in contact with Voids, and therefore remain safe. You, however, are not so lucky. As one of 20 unique characters, players fight their way through the dangers of the Hollow Night and defeat those who would try to get in your way. The game features classic 2D anime fighter controls with a splash of devastating combos and unique fighting styles sure to keep your appetite for battle sated. A fight is more than just pressing buttons!
This new version of Under Night In-Birth includes an all-new Chronicle mode as well as four new characters for this release. Check out the trailer above, and stay tuned for more news here on Gaming Trend.
