Guilty Gear is a series of fighting games developed by Arc System Works. They have a great history, fantastic style, amazing music, and of course, fantastic fighting. The whole game pays homage to metal music, from the character names, to the backgrounds, and of course, the soundtrack. As the series evolved for the PS2, it had the best sprites in the genre, and now that it has reached the current generation, it has the best cell-shaded graphics ever.

In my opinion, the BIGGEST FLAW of Guilty Gear Xrd: Revelator is the story. Not that it's bad. On the contrary, for a fighting game, it's one of the best out there! The issue is that it continues from Guilty Gear Xrd: Sign, where the current saga began, which arrived in Europe with a tremendous delay, only digitally, without giving away two important DLC characters that were given to the rest of the world for free. Not to mention Guilty Gear, Guilty Gear X, Guilty Gear XX, and Guilty Gear X2 Accent Core, which all had their own story, and of course Guilty Gear 2 Overture, which wasn't even a fighting game and was exclusive to Xbox360, and had major plot twists in the series' story.

The game includes an encyclopedia that you will definitely need, and at any moment, you can open it during any dialogue cutscene, where it will recognize the terms and names that were just mentioned and take you directly to the page.

This particular package is a reissue of Revelator, with various extras, such as story and characters, along with the DLC from the previous game. Each character out of the 25 plays very differently from the others, often having a gimmick that sets them apart to a great extent.

As for modes, the game has:
- Arcade, where you play a little story before the main game.
- Story mode, where you watch the story after Arcade as if you were watching an anime.
- And the usual suspects, such as Survival, Challenges, versus, and Training, sometimes with different names.

If you have managed to be a veteran of the series so far, you don't care about the story, or you are willing to spend 20 euros on the PS store for the previous game or jump into the encyclopedia every minute, then get ready for one of the best fighting games of the generation.
