Think of it as choosing your favorite ice cream flavor but with more punches and kicks.
ARENAS: NOT JUST A PRETTY FACE
The arenas in the game are not just there for show; they’re like the seasoning on top of your already flavorful gaming experience. Borrowed from iconic locations of the cinematic universe, these arenas have interactive elements like bridges and gates that can either lead you to victory or plummet you into a pit of despair. Hey, sometimes life’s a bridge, and then you fall off.
ENVIRONMENTAL INTERACTIONS: NATURE’S PLAYTHINGS
It’s not just you and your opponent in the arena; the environment also wants to get in on the action. The game includes various objects scattered across these arenas that can influence the outcome of a match. Yes, you heard it right! You can use the environment as a weapon. See that giant boulder? Well, it’s not just a decorative piece. It could be the difference between victory and defeat. Consider it your arena’s way of saying, “Hey, I want to play too!”
WIELDING THE POWER OF ICONIC LOCATIONS
One of the best features that set this game apart is the sheer attention to detail in the arenas. Fans of the franchise will recognize and appreciate the settings, from the Valley of Peace to the Jade Palace.
