A handful of new additions to Project X Zone 2 have been revealed, adding characters from the likes of God Eater 2 and Ace Attorney into the chaotic mix.
Featuring characters from the Capcom, Bandai Namco, Monolith Soft and Sega archives, Project X Zone is one of the most insane cross-over titles to ever come overseas; Devil May Cry, Mega Man, Valkyria Chronicles, Ghouls N’ Ghosts, Darkstalkers, Space Channel 5, Super Robot Wars, Tekken and Xenosaga are just some of the numerous franchises represented by the robust cast.
