When a rift in time and space suddenly appears, a doorway to various universes is opened allowing both heroes and villains from different worlds to cross paths. Players will be able to take control of a huge selection of paired heroes including favorites such as Jin and Xiaoyu (TEKKEN), Zephyr and Leanne (Resonance of Fate), to X and Zero (Mega Man X) and discover the cause of the rift and stop evil from coming through and spreading into their world.
