I fucked up the title, don't care.

This should not even be possible
---

Well I'll probably get it

x Under Night

I more meant the misspelling. That was me not being able to actually watch this at work and not knowing what the other thing in the thumbnail was.
---

TOO MUCH ANIME FIGHTER! Gaaaaaah...!
---

Rwby voice acting yeesh
---

Oh wow that is a pretty interesting collaboration. It honestly makes me wish DB FighterZ was done and part of it, but still pretty neat

why

also a tag team fighter now???

no guilty gear?

Guilty Gear isn't sprite-based anymore. The whole reason you make a game like this is because it has relatively low cost since you already have all the assets available (see: Marvel vs. Capcom 2).
---

RWBY isn't 2d anyway so that doesn't make sense
---

I'm guessing this was Mori wanting to do a RWBY game (he's said so in the past) but ASW not being confident it would sell well on its own. They probably had this crossover idea bouncing around and decided this would be a good opportunity to use both ideas


And yeah they couldn't reuse Guilty Gear XX sprites because those were made at a significantly lower resolution than HD sprite-based fighters and would look pretty bad in comparison, not unlike Morrigan in MvC2
---

I wonder if it's just Ruby or if we'll get the crew.
---

After showing a character they would show the full franchise name, and they did the same thing for RWBY so I would expect a few more
---

Yeah I fully expect we get at minimum the full Team RWBY and maybe Jaune Arc if the game needs a jokey-style character and Platinum doesn't make it, it just makes too much sense
---

I think that if we got Jaunne instead of Pyrrah the fanbase might actual firebomb ASW.
---

The real heartbreak is gonna be who doesn't make it into DBFZ

They will be able to cover most of the bases people care about most likely even if they only do like 20 characters. We will probably just miss out on the same characters the series left in the dust until Super randomly raised their power levels. I imagine we will get all the major plot villains along with all the main Saiyans and Piccolo then probably some fan favorite extras like Broly and Bardock.

... what

Realistically we'll get both, but if push came to shove I think Jaune comes first because gotta have at least one dude repping the series.

There are entire Japanese fighting games based around having zero dudes!

What is Under Night?
---

Under Night In-Birth is a fighting game developed by French Bread, who previously made Melty Blood. Arc System Works handled the publishing for their console releases

They could easily have flattened the Xrd models into sprites Donkey Kong Country style, considering the entire point of the Xrd art style is 3D models that look like sprites.

It's not nearly as easy as "flattening" the models.

"easily"

LOL

Look up how long that process took for KOF XIII, for it to actually look good takes a lot of work
---

I can't wait for commentators to make fools of themselves in Naoto Shirogane Vs Naoto Kurogane matches.

Thst wouldn't have saved ANY effort and also defeats the whole point of using 3D (hint: the camera rotates)

Uhh do you even understand what's being discussed here, which is putting characters from an existing 3D game into a 2D game

The camera doesn't move in this new crossover game

But you don't seem to understand how much work would go into doing what you propose.
---

Everyone else is overestimating how complex it would be. These character models and animations already exist in Xrd, and are designed to look as indistinguishable as possible from actual 2D sprites. Every time you take a screenshot of Xrd, you're essentially creating one of these sprites, you just have to cut the character out of the rest of the image. But since ArcSys has the actual 3D models, they can take these screenshots outside of actual gameplay so that there is no "rest of the image" to cut them out from.
---

Is this game just ripping assets from the other games? I guess it could work then
---

honestly if they want to use GG sprites they can just use the ones they made for Accent Core Plus anyway.
---

GG could just be added for the installment in 2019

Mostly yes

they would look pretty bad upscaled to match the other games' sprite resolutions
UNIB isn't in this image but it's similar to BB, and P4A is the same as BB
