Bloody Roar (2013) is a upcoming reboot of the Bloody Roar franchise set to be released for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and Xbox One. A release date has yet to be confirmed due to it being in development. Recent interviews and sources have indicated that this is a complete reboot of the Bloody Roar franchise resulting in several key characters from past Bloody Roars games being replaced as well as a entirely different storyline. This has been met with a mix of positive and negative feedback from fans around the world.

Plot
Zoanthropes, the result of natural genetic mutations which gives these gifted humans the power to transform into a wide spectrum of beasts from the animal kingdom. Zoanthropes have existed since recorded time and has always had a hot and cold relationship with their ancestors, human beings. Often villainized and discriminated against, Zoanthropes suffered a great deal of hardships throughout their long history. The Crusades against the first Zoanthrope kingdom, the Zoanthrope enslavement in the American south, the Zoanthrope Holocaust by Nazi Germany, and mandatory registration of every Zoanthrope on Earth which allowed governments to monitor them secretly. However, they have also attacked against the human race such as the fire that destroyed part of New York, the great Tokyo earthquake, the start of World War I, and 9/11. Some were terrorist acts carried out by radical cell groups or a certain individual. Zoanthropes are fighters and survivors; constantly defeating the odds between extermination and existence.

The year is 2145 and the world is on the verge of war between the human nations and the Zoanthropia Kingdom, a recently created governmental state largely comprised of Zoanthropes. Eighty years prior to the war, the ZoantrhopiaKingdom was established in a joint effort by the Zoanthrope Liberation Movement and the United Nations as a way to foster peace between the two races and form a sense of friendship and unity. The Zoanthropia Kingdom received a influx of Zoanthropian immigrants and refugees. With this sudden surge of immigrants as well as skilled workers and artisans, the kingdom entered into a era of prosperity named the "The Zoanthropia Golden Age". Within a few years, the Zoanthropia Kingdom bypassed more advanced nations such as Brazil and South Africa in almost every category and was growing close to the United States of America.

In the spirit of good will and friendship, the Zoanthropia Kingdom lent out there most skilled individuals to aid in other countries in addition to making break troughs in medicine, technology, bio-engineering, and space exploration. In a period of twenty years, the Zoanthropia Kingdom became a world superpower and surpassed the United States of America. The Zoanthropia Kingdom was given a permanent seat within the United Nations council and became a extremely influential member of global politics.

However, during this time, the Zoanthropia Kingdom began to expand its military and poured numerous resources into military spending and weapons manufacturing as well as cyber warfare and security systems. While other human nations were alarmed, they deemed the successful kingdom as a non-threat to human interests.

In 2133, the global economy experienced a devastating recession with resulted in a global depression. Several nations became bankrupt overnight while other smaller nations were erased completely; negated to non-sovereign status. However, the Zoanthropia Kingdom remained untouched by the depression and, from the outside, seemed to be profiting from the situation. Nations scrambled as resources which was largely held by Zoantrhopian companies and, in time, war erupted between the human nations. Thus World War III began which saw the rise of the Zoanthropia Kingdom.

In a fairly controversial move, the kingdom began to invade and absorb the defunct nations into its kingdom. It also began to provide resources, weapons, technology, and even Zoanthropian mercenaries to rivaling countries. Within a year of the war, the Zoanthropia Kingdom had its hands in the war, supplying both sides of the conflict and, eventually, controlling the war. Finally, in 2142, the Zoanthropia Kingdom announced to the world its intentions of establishing its dominant rule over all of the nations thus rendering them all vassal states. The human nations, poor and war ravaged had no way to reply and soon all fell to the might of the Zoanthropia Kingdom.

However, in 2144, several of the human nations, naming themselves the "Hortum Edenis" were able to launch a counter-offensive strike against the kingdom and entered into a war of attrition. However, in the shadows, a third force entered into the conflict, the Zoanthropia Liberation Front (Z.L.F), a ghost from prior to the formation of the Zoanthropia Kingdom. The Z.L.F. dedicated itself in fighting against the leaders of the kingdom, seeing them corrupt and unconcerned about the true issues of Zoanthropes as well as instigating anti-human sentiment within the kingdom. In addition, many of the Z.L.F. members felt the higher echelons of the government were participating in inhuman experimentation and unethical genocides in the name of Zoanthropes. Thus, the world finds itself locked in on-going war with humans and Zoanthropes caught in the middle.

Game Modes
Bloody Roar has 4 distinct games modes.

1. Arcade Mode Arcade Mode is much like in previous installments. The player faces ten fighters (the last three being either Haepharos or Lyseni, Lupin, and finally Uriko) with the difficulty increasing the closer the player reaches to the end.

2. Story Mode The Story Mode is a new addition to the Bloody Roar franchise. The player can control various characters including: Kenji, Alice, Jordan, Electra, and Lupin. The player progresses from chapter to chapter which furthers the storyline. It also opens up a free-ranging mode where the player can control the character to converse with NPC's, buy items, complete various missions, and fight against enemies. During a battle, the camera is a over-head 3rd person view. The control remain mostly the same during the fight. However, during a boss battle, it resumes its side-camera view that is used in the Arcade and Vs. mode. However, once the enemy reaches his or her Hyper Beast mode, the camera switches back. Players are granted experience points for finishing missions, defeating enemies and bosses, and finishing chapters as well as money to purchase items and upgrades. Mass Battles pits the player up against a large number of enemies while Hyper Boss Battles is against a single boss; enlarged by the Hyper Beast Mode.

Characters now roll to evade or back-flip to evade backwards.

Characters can now perform air-throws.

There is a Beast Gauge that has three levels. Each characters has three types of Beast Break, a cinematic attack that does a large amount of damage. Attacking and being hit/blocking fills up this gauge. However, going into beast mode will gradually drain the gauge if the player is unresponsive.

Reception and Reactions
Despite it still being in development, fan reactions have been greatly diverse from extremely positive to extremely negative. Positive reactions have remarked on the freshness of the reboot, the Story Mode, the diversity of characters, and re-invention of old characters. However, negative reactions from fans have criticized the new characters as well as the non-inclusion of fan-favorites such as Long, Stun, and Shina while taking characters such as Gado and Mitsuko and making them enemies.

The developers have listened and read the criticism from readers and reacted to them in various interviews.

Masaki Takihara claimed "We wanted to bring a freshness to the franchise. This is not a sequel to Bloody Roar 4 but a reinvention of the franchise as a whole. That was our goal in creating this reboot. While this may disappoint some fans, it is our hope that within time, fans will see the love and devotion that we poured into this product and the world of Bloody Roar."

Another developer, Masahiro Ushijima, remarked "While staple characters such as Stun, Xion, the cute version of Uriko, and Shina may be absent, that is not to say that won't make an appearance in later installments. This is just the re-telling of the Bloody Roar story...as if it was in a alternate reality."

He then added "Don't worry, Yugo still lives."

Trivia
Despite being the first game of its respective series, Bloody Roar has more character than Bloody Roar 1, Bloody Roar 2, Bloody Roar 3, Bloody Roar: Primal Fury/Extreme and Bloody Roar 4.

Some fans have commented/criticized that the Story Mode is similar to that found in Naruto Shippuden Storm's story modes; in particular the boss battles. While the developers have not wholly commented on this, Takihara commented that "we have played the Storm series extensively."

This Bloody Roar has the largest amount of non-mammal Zoanthropes. This is due to the fact that it was never stated that a non-mammal Zoanthrope is the result of experimentation or blood lines as it did previously. Ushijima remarked that "We thought of keeping it the same...making non-mammal Zoanthropes a rarity but we decided against it. We wanted a more vibrant and diversified feel for this Bloody Roar. Plus, I really wanted to see a Shark Zoanthrope. Sharks are awesome."
