About This Game

The invitations for the Fifth World Fighting Tournament have been sent, and seventeen fighters begin their final preparation knowing there is no margin for error. What they do not know: J6, the organization funding the event, is using the tournament as cover for the next phase of its Dural program. V-Dural — built from combat data stolen from Vanessa before her escape — is ready. The tournament will determine whether it can beat the world's best fighters and reveal which insider helped Vanessa get out.
