Summary

The Last Blade 2, originally released in 1998, is the sequel to the fighting game, The Last Blade, which was released a year before. It picks up where the previous title left off and takes the story of battling at the gates of hell to its climax. This time around, there are 16 unique swordsmen from which to choose. Choose from 2 sword types (Strength and Attack). Deflect your enemy's attacks with "Repel". You can also cancel game-changing special moves like "Super Secret Slice" or "Hidden Secret Slice" with a "Sublime Slash", which connects to Super Secret Slice - just like in the previous title. And there are even some new features like aerial repels, aerial guards and knockdown recovery. Take your battles to a whole 'nother level!

    The last 2D fighting game on the Dreamcast shined brilliantly like a newly polished blade.

    Thanks to its solid gameplay and stylized look, it holds up well enough, even three years after its debut on the NeoGeo.

    It's a piece of 2D history, and one that no DC owning fighting fan should be without.

    Obviously dated, lacking the elaborate stories and special modes of many current fighting games. Still, the gameplay covers up the inadequacies in most respects.

    An excellent compromise between old-school SNK fighters and faster-paced, more fantastic Capcom titles on the DC today.
