Battle Fantasia -Revised Edition-

After actually trying everyone out, watching some videos and playing through some more of the game modes I have to say the gameplay really grew on me.

Arcade mode works exactly as expected and the Story mode is pretty neat.

The character roster is small, but it was a nice variety of characters with their own play style that is easy to pick up on.

You will notice that textures are sharper, making background details such as the signposts much easier to make out, the background during supers looks a lot better with more depth to it, and KOs now have a fancy shockwave effect that makes them more dramatic.

At the press of a button you can parry an attack and punish immediately or even get a big combo opening with extra juggle opportunities that are not normally possible, but in this game a mistimed parry has a lot of recovery that can easily be punished so it requires a lot of finesse, practice and timing to use properly.

From a presentation standpoint, the game’s soundtrack complements its fantastical tone with energetic and dramatic compositions.
