Asura Buster - Eternal Warriors (USA)

Fuuki’s Asura Buster – Eternal Warriors is a two-player fighting game released in 2001 that serves as a sequel to Asura Blade - Sword of Dynasty. Players choose from a diverse cast of characters and engage in one-on-one battles utilizing three attack buttons: light, hard, and powerful. Mastering these attacks is key to defeating opponents and progressing through the game's challenges. The character selection process offers some hidden surprises; specific sequences can unlock unique fighters like Nanami and Young Alice, adding an extra layer of discovery for dedicated players. Behind the straightforward control scheme lies a complex technical foundation powered by Motorola and Zilog processors alongside Yamaha sound chips, delivering dynamic visuals and audio during intense confrontations. While initially released in Japan, Asura Buster gained recognition through special promotional versions distributed to gaming publications, some featuring gameplay aids like a pause function for capturing action sequences. The game represents a continuation of the Asura Blade series’ tradition of competitive fighting action.
