BLEACH Rebirth of Souls - PS5 Game | Official Anime Fighting Game | Playstation 5 Exclusive | Perfect for Anime Fans & Fighting Game Enthusiasts

Simply put this game is what the standard for anime based fighters should be. It is incredibly stylish with its visuals and fantastic ost. A nice roster of 30 characters that covers mostly every important event in the story (only the vizard are lacking in presence) that all play uniquely different to each other to be worthwhile. The big factor here for you is gameplay. Despite being a 3d anime fighter this game feels more like a 2d fighter with 3d movement, specificaly more like a older street fighter with slower overall pacing and emphasis on spacing and footsies. This means the use of dashing, teleporting, canceling feels more important then in most anime arena fighters. It feels so far that this game has a surprising amount of depth despite characters having a small moveset. Each character has a light and heavy chain that can be mixed up after around the 2nd hit, 2 special attacks that may or may not change after a transformation (every character has at least 1 transformation/powerup state) a button based grab/guard break, a teleport, a guard burst, a cancel, and lastly a burst state that makes combos easier to chain. These systems come together to form the games rock-paper-scissor flow of combat. Unfortunately this is also a double-edged sword because if you want just a fun button mash arena fighter experience this might not be your cup of tea. All in all I think if you are a fan of Bleach you will love the style and flare of this game even if the gameplay needs you to invest a bit more then a normal arena fighter.*I bought this game purely for the offline content so unfortunately I cannot comment on the online experience.
