Psychic Force 2012 , the sequel to Psychic Force , is a one-on-one fighting game with a twist. The matches take place inside a giant floating cube. You are able to fly, using your psychic abilities, around a 3D arena with six walls. Each of the ten available characters, Might, Regina, Wendy, Emilio, Setsuna, Patty, Gudeath, Genshin, Carlo, and Gates, are controlled with three buttons: guard, weak attack and strong attack. The effect varies with the distance. Next to the regular life meter, there is also a power meter. By using special moves, the meter is drained and your moves are limited. It is possible to recharge, and the capacity of the power meter expands when you lose a lot of health.
The story centers around two groups of psychics with differing ideals about co-existence with humans. In the middle of this are several neutral psychics with ties to members in either group. The game features three main modes: training, versus and a story mode using static anime-inspired images and in-engine cut scenes to tell the story.
The game's gameplay is fast-paced and requires strategic use of special moves and character-specific abilities. Each fighter has unique energy attacks and a weapon that can be used mid-flight to attack the opponent. The PlayStation port, renamed Psychic Force 2 , adds new features such as a psy-expand mode and an anime intro video, but also degrades the graphics.
