リアルバウト餓狼伝説
The "Kizuna Encounter" fighting system is similar to the "Real Bout Fatal Fury" fighting system. Notable additions include the tag system, in which players have the ability to switch characters in-game by pressing the tag button while standing in their team's tag area. If a player loses one character, regardless of their other character's vitality, they lose the match. A roll system similar to the one used in "The King of Fighters" is also present in "Kizuna Encounter" as well.
