\"\"<\/a>Chaos Code: New Sign of Catastrophe is a downloadable one-on-one 2-D fighter for most current game consoles and PC (reviewed on Switch here), featuring anime styled characters.\u00a0 It kind of reminds me of a fighter you\u2019d see from the mid-2000\u2019s, as this one isn\u2019t quite as flashy as newer Guilty Gear or BlazBlue or Street Fighter titles.\u00a0 The default screen size isn\u2019t even widescreen!\u00a0 But just like some of SNK\u2019s older fighters, just because this one doesn\u2019t look as new, it still seems fairly playable, at least as far as I can tell<\/p>\n

There are plenty of offline and online modes to keep fighter fans happy.\u00a0 You have an Arcade Mode, which acts like the story mode for all the characters (of which there\u2019s a little over a dozen).\u00a0 There\u2019s also a Vs. Mode for two local players, a survival mode where you try and last as long as you can, Mission Mode where you try to complete certain tasks, a Score Attack mode where you try to get the highest score, and a Practice mode where you can try out the characters and their moves.\u00a0 I didn\u2019t see any online modes, though.\u00a0 Edit your characters\u2019 colors with the Custom Color mode, and spend points earned by playing to unlock artwork and other goodies in Collections.\u00a0 And of course you can view Records and toggle Options.\u00a0 Luckily you can change the difficulty level so even fighting game klutzes like myself can stand a chance!<\/p>\n

There are a couple of interesting characters, like a pair that fights in tandem, and a burly chef.\u00a0 But otherwise, there wasn\u2019t really anything about this fighter that stood out to me.\u00a0 But if you can\u2019t get enough of 2-D one-on-one fighters, you may want to check this one out anyway.<\/p>\n

Chaos Code: New Sign of Catastrophe is rated T for Teen with ESRB descriptors of Fantasy Violence, Suggestive Themes, and Partial Nudity.\u00a0 You are fighting other opponents, so it is violent, but only cartoony.\u00a0 Some of the female characters are well-endowed and are scantily clad, so that\u2019s where the suggestive themes and partial nudity come in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
