The game requires fast reflexes in order to perform quick attacks and combine them into powerful deadly combos. Successfully hitting the opponent staggers him for a fraction of a second, leaving him vulnerable for another strike. For this reason, chaining multiple attacks is a solid way to secure victory, as it results in the most damage dealt possible. Dodging and blocking is also a vital part of the game – it allows players to catch a breath and think of a better strategy to defeat the opponent.

A Wide Roster of Playable Characters

The new Guilty Gear game comes with a variety of playable characters. Each fighter is a completely different unit with his own unique moves and attacks, which makes the entire experience much less repetitive. Mastering each character can be an objective in itself, but be warned, as it won’t be an easy task. Choose the character that fits your playstyle best and enjoy your time while kicking others’ butts with a series of perfectly timed flashy attacks and dreadful combos.

Beautiful Anime-Stylized Visuals

The Guilty Gear franchise is best known for its unique art style, and Strive at its core is no different. However, the anime-stylized colorful graphics was further enhanced to look even more appealing than ever. A creative combination of cel-shaded pure 2D anime aesthetics and complex 3D models results in a one-of-a-kind visual experience that no other game can quite replicate. Beautiful visuals, stunning effects, and top-tier animations are what you can expect from the 2021 Guilty Gear game.
