Phoenix and Newsboy: Project Avatar Chaos 2

Phoenix and Newsboy: Project Avatar Chaos 2 is a fighting game and a sequel to Prism VS Phantom: Project Avatar Chaos that is meant to be released between late 2024 and 2025 for all platforms (Nintendo Switch and its future successor, PS5, XBox Series X and PC). Much like in the previous game, the Phoenix Corps, the Newsboy Legion and more get transformed into characters from different media after being sent to a digital world.
== Plot ==
This game takes place some time during season 2 of Legend of Phoenixverse: Prism V.S. Phantom. In addition, the Phoenix Corps still remember the events from the previous game. The game's story mode is divided into three chapters.
=== Newsboy Chapter ===
The Newsboy Legion were one day investigating a mysterious energy reading that appeared in a distant island. In that island there was a rift that sent them into the digital world and transformed them into characters from different media, known in that world as "Avatars". While they inspected their surroundings, someone unknown to them using Rosalina as her avatar appeared to assist them by handing them a pocket dimension to use as a home base and telling them the whereabouts of the seven Kingdom Crystals, which had appeared in this world shortly before the Newsboy Legion arrived and had taken the form of the Chaos Emeralds. The Newsboy Legion sets off to find the Emeralds, while they fight the mastermind's virtual constructs.
=== Phoenix Chapter ===
This story's events take place at the same time as those in the Newsboy Chapter. The Phoenix Corps enter the digital world after Aeon, the previous game's mastermind, appeared to them asking for their help. Eventually they find out what's going on and after the first world decide to track down the Rings of Order, they already have 3 capsules around the neck of "Ranma-Chan", someone whom they're heard a prophecy of back in their own world... and while 3 capsules of hers aren't working a lot in this world, with the Rings of order, they would be able to access that power and have a good chance of finding and stopping this nut, as well as getting rid of them for good. but it won't be easy... regardless, Phoenix Corps now goes to find the lost but powerful and legendary "Rings of Order", while fighting off the generals guarding the rings and minions terrorizing the worlds. and all the while, "Ranma-Chan" Wonders 2 things... 1. Who is this "Nehelenia" and who is she working for? & 2. why are Akane and Master Mummy Separated? is there a reason? as questions are answered, more questions come up... and the looming threat in the shadows becomes more and more dangerous as more is revealed the person this "Nehelenia" is working for..... ....Enemies....Return....
=== Final Chapter ===
Available after clearing both the Newsboy and Phoenix Chapters. Both Phoenix Corps and Newsboy Legion join forces to fight the mastermind in a big battle, a new Enemy to all but 2 people... an ancient enemy from the beginning of the Omniverse, and his generals.
== Gameplay ==
Much like in the previous game, this game plays like a traditional 2D fighting game. The main difference is that the game now has a 4-button control scheme: Light and Heavy punches and Kicks. The game retains Single and 3v3 Matches from its prequel. Prism and Phantom Styles have now been renamed Phoenix and Newsboy Styles, but they keep the former styles' features.
Other new gameplay features include:
* Parry System: Blocking at the right moment will perform a parry. Parries greatly fill the character's Super Gauge and allow the character to instantly counter-attack, having higher priority over the opponent's move.
* Assist: In 3v3 Matches, it is possible to call upon your teammates with the press of a button, so long as they haven't been KO'd.
* Neutral Style: A new fighting style dedicated to 3rd party characters. More information soon.
=== Story Mode ===
In this mode you will be able to play through this game's story. The Newsboy Legion and Phoenix Corps have arrived at a digital world that is in great danger.
=== VS Mode ===

=== Arcade Mode ===
In this single player mode, you'll be able to play in either Single or 3v3 Matches in the style you like the most against the computer. This mode is composed of 5 stages, a rival fight and a boss fight. If you play well against the final boss, you will have the chance to partake on the Special Boss.
=== Training Mode ===
Here you will learn the basics of the game. In addition to the tutorials, there is also a Practice mode for you to practice combos and moves to your heart's content.
