Zen United announced today that their fighter Arcana Heart 3 is now available to download on the Xbox 360 via Xbox Live today.
One of the most refreshing fighters of 2011, Arcana Heart 3 is highly regarded by the fighting game community and was awarded the 'Best Fighting Game' award 2011 by Made2Game.com, calling it, "A wonderfully accomplished 2D fighting game...It's different in so many ways, and brilliant in every one of them."
Arcana Heart 3 continues the series' usage of Arcana - celestial beings based on the characters from tarot cards. Each Arcana have their own unique powers, to augment the abilities of the girls. The game adds a Force Gauge to the fight system, that, when filled, allows the player to perform an Extend Force, a maneuver similar to the Arcana Burst from earlier games. The game also adds a "Simple Mode," simplifying the control layout into a single button for each major function: one button for normal attacks, one button for special moves, one button for moves involving Arcana, and one button for the game's Homing Dash ability. The console version has a fully voiced story mode and HD anime graphics for super moves. It also includes the usual training mode, score attack, and online play.
Arcana Heart 3 includes:
* An all female cast with a diverse range of colourful anime style characters
* 23 characters and 23 Arcana combine for over 500 potential characters to create your perfect fighter
