Scheduled for release on January 25 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam, the game introduces a season pass with three new characters post-launch. Exploring the final chapter of the “Hollow Night” storyline, the release will feature 21 returning characters and three new additions: Kaguya, Tsurugi, and Kuon.
The original Under Night In-Birth game debuted in 2012 as an arcade release in Japan, followed by the updated Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late in 2013. Arc System Works released a PS3 port in Japan in 2014, later reaching North America in 2015. The sequel, Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st], continued the legacy, arriving on various platforms over the years, with the latest iteration being Under Night In-Birth EXE:Late[cl-r].
Known for its unique GRD mechanic, the series introduces a strategic layer where players vie for control over this secondary resource, impacting damage and super move gauge. French Bread also developed the Melty Blood: Type Lumina 2D fighting game, expanding their portfolio with characters from Type-Moon’s Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon- remake visual novel, released in September 2021. DLC characters, including Ushiwakamaru and The Count of Monte Cristo from Fate/Grand Order, have since enriched the gaming experience.
