Demon, Melbra, KOF ... 2021 is hot, so let me introduce you in various ways.

Did you know that the title of many fighting games is crowded in 2021?In addition to the already released "GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE-", the titles that many people, regardless of beginner or experienced, will be released in the future.

Fighting games tend to have the image of "high threshold" and "refusal to beginners", but they can be played online and can search for capture information with videos on SNS.However, last year, "Street Fighter 5" can be played on PS Now, making it easier to play.

In addition, the manufacturer also has a variety of things so that even beginners can easily play, such as connecting combos, enhancing tutorials, and making it easier to hit with the same level with the rank system to remove the negative label.I am elaborating.

It is such a fighting game, but as I wrote at the beginning, many notes will be released from this year to next year.Therefore, in this article, I would like to briefly introduce the title of the title that has already been released and the titles scheduled to be released in the future.I would be grateful if you could refer to it from experienced games to beginners.

■ A long -awaited new work from "Guilty" and "Virtua" is on sale

First, we will introduce "GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE-" and "Virtua Fighter Esports" which are already released this year."GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE-" (PS4/PS5/STEAM) by Ark System Works is a completely new work of the so -called "Combo Gear".In the past work, it gained popularity with geeky content, but in this work, the system has been renewed to a form that is easy to play for beginners.

In addition to the game, beautiful graphics, flashy productions, and character design are also attractive.The production of super special moves is anime -like, and it is a fun title just to watch.

In this work, there are fans all over the world, so sales of 500,000 copies worldwide in about a month from the release are going well.A new character has been added this month.

"Guilty Gear" is a strong title for me, so it's already an article, so please see here too!

Another feature is "Virtua Fighter Esports" (PS4) released by Sega.Speaking of the "Virtua Fighter" series, the title was popular as the world's first 3D fighting game, but it has not been new for more than 10 years.Under such circumstances, this work is a full remake of the previous work "Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown".In addition to renewing the graphics, it has also added effects during the match, making it easy to play, and you can enjoy watching e -sports.

As the title suggests, this work is a title based on e -sports, and will hold e -sports tournaments and events in the future.In addition, as a system that is conscious of e -sports, up to 16 people can participate in the room match, "tournament matches" and "league matches" are also possible, making individual competitions easier to do.It is a feature.

I didn't mention much of the 3D fighting game, so I first experienced the "Virtua" series.There is a tutorial that explains the system, and it is easy for beginners to begin, but honestly, at the time of writing this article, I am not able to do so much, and I am learning while being broken by my experienced friend.Nevertheless, I enjoy reading the axis (depth) that is not found in 2D fighting games.

It should be noted that this work is being played on PS Plus and free downloads on PS NOW (free download until August 2).Please feel free to download and play from beginners to 3D beginners like the author.

■ "Melbra" and "KOF", a new work of the popular series will be released.The match game of "Demon Blade"

Speaking of the features of the fighting games to be released, "KOF XV" and "Melty Blood: Type Lumina" cannot be removed.

"KOF XV" is the latest work of "The King of Fighters (KOF)" series, which has been very popular since it was released in 1994.This work distributed by SNK will be released at PS5/PS4/Xbox Series X | S/PC (Windows10/Steam/Epic Games Store) and supports cross -platforms.In addition, this work was scheduled to be released in 2021, but it was postponed in 22 years due to the catastrophe.

The attraction of the "KOF" series is that it is a 3vs3 team battle.Unlike other fighting games, you can use a variety of characters in one game, so you didn't have to worry if you had more than two favorite characters (laughs).In the team formation, there was a unique strategy of "KOF", such as putting a strong character with a strong character even without a gauge, and putting a character with a strong gauge technique in the following.

The author is playing the KOF series as it is, but the "XV" has not yet announced the participation of my favorite character "Coola Diamond" and "Angel", so I am waiting for the next report.

THE KING OF FIGHTERS XV

鬼滅、メルブラ、KOF……2021年は格ゲーが熱いので色々紹介させてください

Another feature is "Melty Blood: Type Lumina" scheduled for September 30, 2021.This work developed by Furanspan is the latest work of the fighting game series "MELTY BLOOD" set in the world view of the feature-length visual novel "Tsukihime" created by Type-Moon.Compatible hardware is PlayStation 4/Nintendo Switch/Xbox One/PC (Steam), not crossplay.The remake version of "Tsukihime" "Tsukihime -A Piece of Blue Glass Moon-" will be released in August, so it is a title with excellent topicality.

Speaking of "Melbra", it is characterized by being able to operate an attractive character (with a chick of the kitchen) of "Tsukihime", but the character design of this work is completely renewed by Takashi Takeuchi.In addition, the story of Kinoko Nasu will be developed, which is likely to be a hot title for Type-Moon fans.

Speaking of "Melbra", it was characteristic of aerial combo with a high degree of freedom, and the reading around the shield that could counterattack if successful, but this work also inherits such work.In addition, it is said that a system that can be played for beginners, such as a system in which a combo is connected by a button hitting, will be introduced.

I played lightly with "Act Cadenza" and "Actless Again", which are in the past work, but the basic combos are easier than games such as "Guilty Gear", but literally literally.A combo with a sense of engraving skills is a game that creates a unique exhilaration, and it was a title that was literally an inexperienced person who had no experience.We hope that this work will inherit these points of the past work.

By the way, the last one is the focusing title scheduled to be released in the future, "Demon Blade Hinokami Bloody Tan".The genre of this work is "Oni Killing Battle Action", so it may not be a fighting game, but I would like to introduce the competitive game of these jump original things because it has its own charm.。

By the way, this work is an action game of "Demon Blade", and it is equipped with a story mode that allows you to relive the original, and a 2VS2 Versus mode that selects two favorite characters.The popular work is an original action game, and as far as the PV is seen, this work seems to be interesting enough to enjoy the story mode that can be enjoyed with the same production as anime, but when I see it as a match game, I expect it.What I want to do is the fun of "there is no case game".

This work seems to be a title located in the genealogy of jump works such as "ONE PIECE Grand Battle!" And "NARUTO -Naruto Narutimate Storm", but these "carrage" games are.It may be balanced with sharp shaving, which can create strange fun.When I was in elementary school, I had a memory of doing "Grand Battle 2" with my friends, but I found that Shanks was too strong and played with a laugh.

Of course, just being able to play with a demon character, it is an attractive content, and if the battle balance is good, I expect it to be a "broken" feeling because it is a character game.I will do it (laughs).

"Demon Blade Hinokami Blood Fan" is released from Aniplex, and the development is Cyber Connect Two.It is scheduled to be released on October 14, 2021, and the compatible platform is PS4/PS5/Xbox One/Xbox Series X | S/PC (Steam).

■ Expectations in the future of the case game!

冒頭でも書いたように、格闘ゲームは敷居が高いイメージがついてしまいましたが、現在の格闘ゲームは、初心者でも遊びやすいように様々な試みがなされています。今回紹介したタイトルの中でも、「Melty Blood: Type Lumina」は、「月姫」の話題性だけでなく、同じTYPE-MOON作品を原典とした「Fate/Grand Order」などの人気から、格ゲー未プレイの方の注目度も高いと思われるので、今まで以上に初心者でも参入しやすいタイトルになってくれることを期待しています。

Although it is a fighting game that is often said to be a variety of fighting games, sales are strong at the world level, and it is a genre that keeps certain demand in Japan.Because it is easy to understand and lose to see it, it is popular in e -sports, etc., and I would like to expect future developments.I am particularly looking forward to seeing the new work of the two major series, "Street Fighter" and "Tekken", because the game hardware has joined the next generation (Vampire)I will keep waiting for the new series).

In addition, the title introduced this time is only a new series of series, but Raat Games, which handles "League of Legends" and "Valorant", is also developing a complete new work of fighting games.Because the company is a strong e -sports genre, it is expected that games with high competitiveness are expected.

Finally, as an aside, if you want to start a case game in the future, you don't have to buy "Akecon".Akekon is becoming a "person who was playing a game at a game", and it is not unusual for a propeller to play with a normal controller, not an akkon recently.The current fighting games are lower than expected, so please try to play this year's new rush.
