Developed by Studio Saizensen, Blade Strangers is a hardcore old-school fighting game.

• Each character has three alternate Color settings and their own familiar “home” stage.
• Proprietary development system transforms 3-D models and animation into 2-D sprite work; every frame looks like a gorgeous anime drawing.
• Online competition with minimum input lag
• Accessible controls Designed to bring fresh Blood to the ranks of fighting-game fans worldwide
