Bloody Roar Extreme/FAQ
General
What is Bloody Roar Extreme?
Bloody Roar Extreme is a 3D fighting game with a strong focus on meter management and many 2D fighter elements. In Bloody Roar Extreme, each character has 3 forms: Human (which is weak), Beast (which is strong) and Hyperbeast (which is very strong but has a limited duration). Core gameplay revolves around trying to force situations where the player is in their Beast form while their opponent is stuck in Human form.
Does this game have online?
Bloody Roar Extreme is played online via Dolphin netplay. A video guide on how to set the game up can be found here.
What does the Tier List look like?
While character placements within tiers vary from player to player, they generally look quite similar.
- Banned: Uranus
- S: Xion, Yugo, Cronos, Alice, Jenny
- A+: Shenlong, Fang, Gado, Long
- A: Ganesha, Uriko, Stun, Kohryu
- B: Marvel, Bakuryu, Busuzima
Who is Fang?
Fang is a guest character from the Bloody Roar: The Fang manga, which takes place in an alternate setting to the games; he is that universe's version of Yugo. Mechanically, he plays much closer to Yugo's original Hyper Beast Duel incarnation before he was changed into a boxer character in Bloody Roar 2 onward.
Which character is best for beginners?
Bloody Roar Extreme is a technical game, but a few characters are easier to pick up than others; for example, Gado, Fang and Uriko are relatively simple. New players should avoid the Six-Ring characters (Long, Shenlong, Uriko) to avoid picking up bad habits. At the end of the day, players should pick whichever character they like, without forgetting some characters require a lot more effort to play than others. Below is a quick list on character difficulty, as well as a brief overview of each character's playstyle:
