Battle World: Fallen Dragons

Power Battlers: Fallen Dragons (パワー·バトラーズ: フォーレン·ドラゴンズ) is a fighting game developed by Burst Arts and published by Namco. It is technically the sixth installment of the Power Battlers series, released only for the Sony PlayStation 3 on October 10th, 2006. The game focuses on the organization Infrared and their schemes to resurrect a pair of dragon Powers and dominate the world in the midst of a tournament.

Gameplay
Like all of the Power Battlers games, Fallen Dragons focuses heavily on its fighting modes. The gameplay is completely different from that of previous entries in the franchise. Inspired by Super EX Battlers and EX Battlers 2, players can choose one of two different playstyles, "Ultimate" and "Hyper."

Ultimate mode plays similar to the previous entries. The Combo Gauge is filled whenever the player strikes the opponent or by performing Special Moves. The player can stock up to five Combo Gauges. The player can use one stock of the Combo Gauge to perform a Combo Art, an upgraded version of a character's special move, or two stocks to perform a Burst Art, a powerful special attack, In addition, characters can activate their instant kill moves, Supreme Arts, when they are stocked with five Combo Gauges.

Hyper mode is a brand new mode that introduces several gameplay aspects. Here, players fill the Combo Gauge by charging it or defending against the opponent's attacks. After the gauge is filled, the player enters Hyper mode and like in Power Battlers 4, they retain this mode for a limited amount of time. The player can only perform Combo Arts or Burst Arts in Hyper mode or when the life gauge is near empty.

Character models become more cel-shaded, as a means to offer a more "animated" feel to the game. Environmental interaction is present, yet infrequent. Certain levels include obstacles that can be shattered to damage an opponent standing near one.

Fallen Dragons introduces two new modes: the Venture mode, which acts as a mission mode for the characters, and the Happy Shop, where the player can buy extras with tokens earned in regular play and in Venture mode.

Story
In a fictional version of the United States, a tournament known as the New Rose Tournament has been announced. Many contestants have entered in hopes of defeating the World Champion himself, Myers. However, multiple claims point out to Infrared, a terrorist group hellbent on segregating humans and spirits, being connected to the foundation of the tournament. A teenager named Blaze Higgins, who have met Infrared himself, is determined to seek the answers he is looking for about them hosting this tournament, willing to discover their true motives.
