Six playable characters, 4 player online co-op, tons of moves to learn, decent side content, amazing writing and voice acting, gorgeous visuals, a training room to practice combos IN A BEAT 'EM UP GAME, and fun gameplay.

Enemy and weapon types are more varied, certain moves and weapons can attack grounded enemies, you can actually get 3x curb stomps in at a time, and controls feel tighter overall.
