There are some zoanthropes (the people who can go into beast mode in this game) and some of them are trying to fight for better things, some for revenge, etc… it’s a bit pap and mostly drivel, but it does at least set some tone to the fighting. But to be honest, there’s a distinct amount of ‘meh’ attached to it that basically means I could barely give a shit about it. I could tell you all about the story here. Yes, it has its flaws, and the sequel is arguably better, but the original Bloody Roar felt like a fighting game trying to be different and succeeding wholeheartedly.Īnd holy shit, it does a bloody – LOL – brilliant job of it as well.

However, the internet has managed to make it all a little bit more complicated than that but this game will instantly conjure up thoughts of furry…ism…ness just on context alone.
