Arc System Announces Under Night In-Birth For PC 1

Prepare for an intense night in. From the company that brought you Guilty Gear and BlazBlue comes the latest in the genre of extreme, fast-paced, anime fighters: Under Night In-Birth.

Initially released for Japanese arcades in 2012, later seeing an Eastern console release in 2014, and a Western release in 2015; Under Night In-Birth is now getting a PC release via Steam.

Under Night In-Birth takes place in a fictional modern-day setting some time in the 21st century. A phenomenon called the Hollow Night has been enveloping particular regions of Japan once a month for several centuries. Each area engulfed in the Hollow Night is beset by shadow-like creatures called Voids that utilize and feed upon a power known as “Existence”, or EXS.

Like its predecessors, Under Night In-Birth features a beautiful hand-drawn anime style, 16 unique playable characters, each with their own style and abilities. Gameplay is fast and fun enough for newcomers, yet being meticulous for hardcore fighting fans while having both offline and online multiplayer.

Under Night In-Birth will be available on Steam July 12, 2016.
