Try playing through the Start Up Battle, an interactive tutorial designed to teach you all about the games core mechanics. Learn about the fundamentals of 4v4 combat, understand team-based systems, and put your skills to the test a trial match before jumping into action.
If that wasn’t enough for you, check out Training Mode for a more advance way to learn the system. Whether it’s to figure what your character does or lab out difficult combos, the Training Mode gives you all the tools you need to sharpen your skills.
