BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle 2018

Is it still worth playing?

Arc System Works' 2018 2D crossover fighting game for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and Windows. It has characters from BlazBlue, Persona 4 Arena, Under Night In-Birth and RWBY, with more added later as downloadable content. Matches are 2 vs 2 tag fights in which you control one of two characters at a time and switch on command, and the match goes on until both are down. Beside the usual meter, an assist meter lets the second character join in with attacks that extend combos or keep the opponent away. It can also be spent on a Cross Burst to escape danger. The controls were simplified compared with the main BlazBlue games, and each character got shared options such as an overhead on the heavy button, an invincible reversal and auto combos. With the same simple options across the roster, a new character costs little to learn, which still makes the whole mixed cast easy to try.
