Based on one of the most widely recognized manga and anime series, Fist of the North Star takes place in a postapocalyptic world where the remaining survivors of a nuclear holocaust roam the wasteland in an ongoing struggle against marauding tribes for food and water.

In addition, a variety of character costumes, and stages will be available as downloadable content.

Key Features:

  • Legend mode, follows the storyline of the entire manga, starting with a re-imagined version of ‘Raoh’ and covering ‘Celestial Emperor’ and ‘Land of Shura’.

Different characters will be controlled for each episode while ‘boss’ encounters will feature entire famous scenes from the manga, recreated in intricate detail.
  • Over 20 playable characters will be available, including Falco, Shachi, Shew and Juza.

  • Dream Mode introduces new, original storylines to the Fist of the North Star Universe while bridging the gaps between parts of the main story, often focusing on some of the series’ minor characters.
