Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is a fighting game where players compete in a tournament called the Battle Coliseum. Set in a futuristic Japan, the story involves a corporate conglomerate attempting to seize control of the world, with two secret agents dispatched to investigate. Players will engage in various fighting modes, saving their progress and statistics on a memory card.
Story
PROLOGUE
It is February 2017 by the new Japanese calendar. A man is attempting to make the successful NeoGeo World his own by defeating the strongest NeoGeo warrior and claiming the title for himself. If that power were to fall into his hands, control of the entire world would only be a step away.
As the head of the WAREZ conglomerate, this man has used his incredible wealth to pave the way for his vile plans. Those who knew the true extent of his ambitions quaked in fear.
It was at this critical time for NeoGeo World that a fighting competition sponsored by the WAREZ conglomerate was to be held. It was called the Battle Coliseum.
Concerned about the situation, the federal government dispatched two of its top secret agents --Yuki and Ai-- to investigate. Clouds of danger threaten to cover the land as the warriors gather for this grand tournament. The future is in their hands.
