Dive into Neo Seoul, a city on the brink of chaos

The world of Verdict Guilty Clash takes players to Neo Seoul, a metropolis caught in a spiral of violence where organized crime and terrorist attacks are on the rise. In this tense environment, players must choose a side and engage in intense confrontations.

Two opposing factions face off:

The defenders of the law, the last remaining police officers willing to risk everything to restore order.
The criminals, dark figures determined to plunge the city into chaos.

Each character features unique techniques combining special moves, devastating combos, firearms, and explosives. This bold mix of traditional fighting mechanics and more modern elements gives Verdict Guilty Clash a strong identity and an intensity rarely seen in retro-inspired fighting games.

A wide range of game modes for a complete experience

Verdict Guilty Clash is far more than a simple versus fighting game. It offers a broad selection of modes designed to extend replayability and appeal to all types of players.

Available modes include:

Arcade: fight through the entire roster up to the final boss.
Training: refine your techniques and master your combos.
Story: discover each fighter’s personal narrative.
Survival: withstand increasingly dangerous waves of enemies.
Duelling: a brutal mode where every hit results in an instant KO.
Turbo: a faster, more intense version of Arcade mode.
Master: the ultimate challenge, facing the entire roster at extreme difficulty.

This variety of modes, combined with accessible yet demanding controls, makes Verdict Guilty Clash a title that appeals to both casual players and dedicated versus fighting enthusiasts.

A strong arcade heritage

Developed by Retro Army Limited, the studio behind The Spy Who Shot Me and Super Trench Attack, Verdict Guilty Clash draws clear inspiration from classic fighting games, especially Street Fighter II. This influence can be felt in the pacing of combat, animation timing, and overall readability of fights.

The sharp visual direction and energetic soundtrack further reinforce the arcade atmosphere. This careful balance between nostalgia and modern design has earned the game excellent reception on Steam, with an average score of 9/10 based on more than 600 positive reviews.

This enhanced Dreamcast version, featuring additional fighters, is a must-have for collectors and retro gaming enthusiasts. The availability of JPN, US, and PAL editions allows players and collectors to choose the version that best fits their collection while staying faithful to period standards.

Verdict Guilty Clash: accessible yet deep

Beyond its nostalgic appeal, Verdict Guilty Clash stands out thanks to its universal gameplay. Easy to pick up, the game gradually reveals strategic depth that rewards practice and mastery.
