Watch: SNK’s new fighter Arcana Heart

By Spencer . January 14, 2007 . 6:40pm

There has been a flood of videos of Arcana Heart on YouTube thanks to serikamo. What’s Arcana Heart you say? Its SNK’s all new, all female fighting game. Sure it looks a lot like Melty Blood, but it has that fast paced insanity of Marvel vs. Capcom 2 minus partner characters embedded in it. Look at the video past the break and you can get an idea of how air dashes and guard cancelling works in the game. Also there’s a certain level of customization in Arcana Heart that you don’t get in other fighting games. First you pick a character out of ten then pick one of the ten arcana to determine what powers your character gets. It’s also the only fighting game I know of where a girl rides a giant blob that takes up

    Here's a question... What platform? Looks like PS2?
  • It reminds me of Waku Waku 7 - and that's not a bad sign :)

    Sweet! According to this http://insomnia.ac/japan/arcana_heart/ its an Arcade game. Also it not done by SNK but by Yuki Enterprise who also did the last two Samurai Spirits titles for SNK.
  • Hey guys! 2 thinks:

    1- This game is NOT from SNK, its from Yuki Enterprise who made this game without any help from SNK.

    2- It was released on a exclusive PCB Arcade and isnt going to any console for now, but this game got some nice reception in Japan so i guess that its comming somewhere on this year.

    Surely its not on the Neo-Geo MVS. That is unless there was a prototype MVS cart done by Yuki in 2002 or 2003.
