Saw this browsing youtube and didn't see a thread so I figured I'd post it since all the gameplay we've had so far is off screen.

I still can't believe a beat'em up looking this good was just dropped out of nowhere and is releasing in the same year it was announced.

Love the animations and looks great! I'm so saddened this comes out in September though as I'm already buying multiple games a week that month! Gah

I find it interesting the manga cutscene reads western comic style (yes, I know it's developed by WayForward) because EX Troopers does the same thing (and that game never even released outside of Japan). Is this something done in other games with manga cutscenes or are these two games weird outliers?

Also, this game looks dope. Too bad I can't buy it because it's letterboxed /ssssss

Already saw it. But yeah, I'll be getting both this and Ninja Warriors/Saviors. Glad to know that the genre is in good hands.

gotta be honest, i was really disappointed when the gameplay actually begun and saw that the actual game's graphics is pretty divorced from the presentation's aesthetic.

Looks fan-fuckin-tastic. Loved the "stomp your friend's ghost back into their body" thin shown off previously.

These are just wierd outliers it seems since the artist for the comic scenes here seems to be Tsulala who primarily does a webcomic in the exact same style of the cutscenes in this, so they must have just not specified them to read exactly like manga.

God this game looks so god DAMN amazing!!! Holy shit, every single stylistic flair, all the art, the character charm, the beat em up nostalgia, everything is drop dead gorgeous.
????

How is it divorced from the aesthetic? It looks pretty close to me.
Because its pixel art, and pixels are inferior to my mangas/s

How was the River City Ransom sequel that came out a few years ago? I missed that game. I was going to get it, but traveling to China made it harder for me to buy games.

There's totally room for 2 more playable characters on that select screen, have they said anything about unlockable fighters?

It's a bit hit and miss - the combat system and animation is great, but theres a lot to complain about (level design, direction etc). Only for diehard fans really.
