Eternal Fighter Zero -Memorial- Edition is the fourth and final major version of Eternal Fighter Zero, a 2D doujin fighter developed by Tasofro (known for developing Immaterial and Missing Power and Touhou Hisoutensoku) and originally released on August 11th, 2000. Its colorful cast of characters are originally from the visual novels Moon., One: Kagayaku Kisetsu e, Kanon, and Air, along with one extra character. Many of the characters’ attacks reference other fighting games such as Guilty Gear, King of Fighters, and Last Blade. Memorial Edition (EFZ 4.0) released in 2005 and included three new playable characters, gameplay changes, a completely redone soundtrack, and more.

EFZ Revival

Originally released in November 2014, this fanmade rollback netplay client and patch includes compatibility fixes for modern Windows, improved training mode options, replay takeover functionality, and more.

Concerto released support for EFZ on January 1st 2023, providing a lobby system and visual front end for EFZ Revival.

Key Features

  • Anime Fighter: Characters can chain their normals, double jump, airdash, air block, air recover, and air throw. The control scheme is simple, featuring 3 buttons for various strengths of attacks and an extra button used for actions like controlling a puppet or changing stances.
  • Custom Juggle Combos: Once in juggle state, the player can combo the opponent in almost any way they like, allowing for a vast variety of combo options for all situations, with plenty of room for individual self expression.
  • Recoil Guard: EFZ's version of an Instant Block/Just Defend mechanic, performed by blocking just before getting hit. Recoil Guard negates all chip damage and pushback while allowing the defender to guard cancel into almost anything. However, the defender can also time a Recoil Guard in response to the opponent's counter attack, allowing for intense reflex-based Recoil Guard battles. Somewhat similar to Shield Counters in Type Lumina.
  • Reinforce Gauge: Underneath the super meter (SP Gauge) is the unique RF Gauge which builds passively over time and is used for EX moves and roman cancels.
