About This Game
After the criminal syndicate Mephistopheles—whose leader Duke fell to Alba Meira in an illegal Southtown tournament—collapsed from the public eye, the media flooded the city with damaging exposés. But the true power pulling Mephistopheles's strings, the shadowy Addes organization, had only been watching from the background. Now Addes reveals itself by sending white-envelope invitations to the world's most formidable fighters, calling them to a new battle royale. Beneath the spectacle, Alba's private record confirms he went on to defeat both Jivatma and Luise—but at the cost of his brother Soiree, who was kidnapped and has not been seen since.
