Is Bloody Roar - Hyper Beast Duel still worth playing in 2026?

A fighting game from Hudson and Eighting, Bloody Roar stands out for its transformation mechanic, where each fighter morphs into an anthropomorphic beast to multiply their blows. The fast pace, the readable bouts and the spectacle of the transformations give the title a real identity in a crowded genre. The small roster and limited technical depth place it behind the heavyweights. A snappy, original versus fighter to recommend for fans of arcade brawling and of concepts that stand apart.
