Tribute Cross

***Tribute Cross*** (トリビュートクロス, Toribyūtokurosu) is a 2.5D crossover fighting game, developed by Arc System Works , and published by Compile Heart and Banpresto, with production assistance from Capcom, Type-Moon, Aniplex, Kyoto Animation, and Key. It was released on July 20, 2020 for PlaysStation 4.

The game commerating a tribute to three era such as Showa Era, Heisei Era, and Reiwa Era*,* it featured characters from various series.

Much like *Dragon Ball FighterZ*, it is involves the player picking a team of 3 playable characters and a unique assist for each, then fighting an AI or human opponent with their own team of 3 characters. The game received positive reviews from critics, who praised its gameplay, character roster, visuals and story mode, while criticizing its soundtrack and initial lack of online multiplayer support outside Japan. It is considered one of the best fighting games of all time as well as the best fighting games released in the eighth generation of video game consoles and became one of the fastest-selling entertainment product in history, earning US $500 million globally in its release day and 86 million copies were sold in its first month.

## Gameplay

The game plays similarly to *BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle*, particularly with players partaking in 3-on-3 tag battles, with massive changes in the gameplay and graphics which are upgraded to be 2.5D.

Much like *Dragon Ball FighterZ* ,the control scheme and team mechanics are lifted from the *Marvel vs. Capcom* series and the overall presentation is reminiscent of other Arc System Works games. Players each select three characters to form a team, from an initial roster of characters from the various series One character is controlled and can be switched with one of the other characters at any time. Players can also call one of their other characters to perform an "Assist" move, allowing simultaneous attacks and combos with the entire team. All three characters on the same team must be defeated for a player to win the game. If neither team has been defeated before the time runs out, the team that has sustained the least damage overall wins.

### Ratio System

Much like *Capcom vs. SNK: Millennium Fight 2000* and *Capcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium 2001**,*** before a match, players must select a team of up to three fighters, after which, they must assign a Ratio level to each character so that the overall Ratio of their team equates 3.

* If the player has chosen only one fighter, they will automatically be assigned Ratio-3
* If the player has chosen two fighters, they can choose between having one Ratio-1 and one Ratio-2.
* If the player has chosen three fighters, one must be assigned as Ratio-2 while the others are automatically given Ratio-1.
