Fighter's Island: Destiny

Fighter's Island: Destiny is an upcoming crossover fighting game by Ultima Games. It was announced teo months after the last balance patch for Fighter's Island: Champion of the Sphere released. It is currently slated for release for the PS5 and Xbox One X/S in Q1 2023.

Confirmed content
The initial teaser trailer confirmed two characters and nothing more. Several months later, an official reveal trailer released confirming two more characters, two stages, and a brand new story mode that features a hub world similar in play to games like Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 and Jump Force. The protagonist is confirmed to be an entirely brand new playable character created by director Josh Garriga.

Shortly before Tokyo Game Show, the entire starting roster has been leaked via blurry renders of all of the characters including all of the previously announced ones. Instead of attempting to scrub the existence of this leak, Ultima wholeheartedly embraced the community for its positive reception to certain additions and returning veterans.

Three closed betas have taken place, each revealing a few new characters and stages at their ends, ultimately culminating in a final reveal trailer that showed off all previously reveales characters plus the final two newcomers and final returning character before showing off their gameplay.

Gameplay
Much like the previous two entries, Fighter's Island: Destiny utilizes 3-D graphics in a 2.5-D plane. The traditional 6-button layout is used, but in a surprising twist, the gameplay is taken from not a Street Fighter title, but from Ultima Games's Heavy Hitters 3. Focus Attacks, a mechanic in both the Street Fighter and Heavy Hitters series, returns here, but also added is EX Mode, which functions similarly to MAX Mode from the King of Fighters series. The super gauge system is taken from Heavy Hitters 3 as well, where each character has at least three super moves (two Level 1s and one Level 3). The Level 1 supers normally cost one bar of meter to perform, but can be enhanced by pressing two punch or kick buttons at the cost of an additional bar. When in EX mode, the enhanced super is used automatically.
