Savage Reign is a vs. fighting game that offers a dozen fighters, mixing fighting with weapons and a two-plane system like the one seen in the Fatal Fury saga, with which it is possible to get to the back of the stage by climbing to a higher level or climbing up pipes. Each stage has interactive elements that intervene in the fights, such as falling stalactites, lava jets, spotlights that can be knocked down, and all the characters, have the ability to execute movements based on projectiles, which can be used to chase the opponent when he changes planes, and which can even be reflected.
