While Anarchy Reigns is still scheduled for release on July 5, 2012 in Japan, SEGA has changed the previously announced dates to TBC (To Be Confirmed) and developer Platinum Games' Jean Pierre Kellams confirmed the delay in its latest PG Break video episode stating, "We really wanted everyone around the world to play at the same time, but unfortunately that's not going to happen. It is still coming out the first week of July in Japan, but in the west Sega is looking for the best time to put it out."

Anarchy Reigns incorporates a diverse range of multiplayer modes to provide players with different challenges, including Tag Team battles and Battle Royal, where players can challenge others in a full-on fight for victory.

Added to the campaign mode in which you will be able to play Jack and Leo’s stories, the game has many multiplayer modes. Four of them have already been revealed (Deathmatch, Battle Royale, Survival and Death Ball) and we can now announce that in total there are no less than 11 very different multiplayer modes available in Anarchy Reigns!

As usual with PlatinumGames, a new threshold is crossed when they move into a new genre and this is the time for online multiplayer brawlers to take a step forward. Depending on the players mode you don’t only have 2, 4 or 8 players fighting each-other online, no way, you will have to up to 16 (that’s sixteen!) players confronting one another at any one time. So be ready for a new scale in the Melee Combat!
