Featuring an outrageous cast of characters, Hyper Universe pits two teams of four against each other, challenging players to duke it out in fast-paced, side-scrolling action.
Emphasizing individual skill and coordinated teamplay, Hyper Universe unleashes traditional fighting-style elements in a vertical, side-scrolling battlefield.
