The fighters

The roster includes more than 20 characters. Among them are Clyde, a fast boxing prodigy who creates fire with his hands; engineer Annie, who fights with gadgets, traps, a mechanical arm and her robotic companion Gizmo; and Rattlebone, a revived skeletal knight who wields a sword and shield and can throw his own head as a projectile.

Shoto, a student of the Locks Dojo, uses electricity and precise attacks, while Red presses forward with energy beams, grapples and a Rage mechanic that strengthens his special moves after he takes or deals enough damage. Baron is a powerful grappler with a large HP pool and armoured attacks, but limited mobility. Sylvan, founder and CEO of the Diamondeye Company, draws cards to gain options and can enter Full House mode after drawing all four Aces; he can also use a slot machine and call on his bodyguard, Mr. Withers.

The undead pirate Shiverskull summons crew members for assist attacks and fights with twin swords. Black Heart, an alien parasite that takes the form of Clyde, uses deceptive versions of his speed and fire abilities. Callowman is a green, legless superhero whose taunts strengthen his grappling attacks; one of his Super Moves can instantly KO an opponent if both his Super Meter and taunt-buff meter are full. Doodle, a two-dimensional character who breaks the fourth wall, uses charge-motion special moves, lingering projectiles and a Super Move that grows stronger when you spend more meter.
