Koefficient analyzes the assists of all 20 base characters in BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle

The news just keeps coming in for BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle. Today’s breakdown from Koefficient covers nearly all of the assists for the 20 base roster characters. Similar to a project done for Dragon Ball FighterZ, a Google document has been created with GIFs and descriptions of all three assists each character possesses, with the exceptions of BlazBlue’s Iron Tager and Persona 4 Arena‘s Yukiko Amagi — of whom we’ve only seen two assists from so far — with their third attacks still remaining a mystery, for now.

To accompany this, BlazBlue content creator Koefficient has released a video where he runs down the document, providing a bit of analysis of each individual assist one by one. He also speculates how powerful or weak these moves could make each character in the long run. You can see the full video below, and get a link to the full Google document here.

What do you think about the assists in the game so far? Do you like the ones that have been chosen for your favorite characters, or would you have preferred something else? Share your thoughts with us in the comments section below. You can also find new information about the title’s “Episode Mode” here, as well as checking out some new gameplay footage from GameSpot Gameplay.

BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle will be released on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Steam on Thursday, May 31st in Japan, with a North American release for the same platforms following on Tuesday, June 5th.

Koushun details the mechanics of light moves, guard cancels, and special cancels in Sailor Moon S

Sailor Moon S is a game that looks simple at face value. However, the technical nuances are deep enough that you could go over it for hours and not touch everything.

In this short video from Koushun, we see several details about the basic mechanics of the game. Much like throws in the game, light attacks have shorter ranges based on which side you are facing.

Much of the wealth of information in today’s video comes from its discussion of guard cancels, and how it can impede block strings.

Catch the exciting The King of Fighters 2002 tournament action from Fuerte Beatdown IV

This weekend was great for The King of Fighters community. Not only did we see some of the top North American players for the series come out to Fuerte Beatdown IV, but we saw some of the older titles get a lot of love at the event.

The King of Fighters 2002 has long been considered one of the best games in the franchise, and its heavy damage and crazy setups make it exciting to watch. This made the last stretch of Fuerte Beatdown — which features Luis Cha, PachuKOF, and Simba — an exhilarating set of matches from start to finish.
