About the game

A new Gear arises, its name Leopaldon. As they threaten to lay waste to the world, you prepare to mount your offense. The good news? You won't have to face them alone. Guilty Gear Isuka introduces the brand new mechanic of cooperative gameplay to the tried and true fighting madness of the Guilty Gear XX series.

The value story

It has been discounted 83 times in the 13 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 75 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today's $1.99 at 80 percent off still sits 101 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

It is pricier than 75 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Rivals of Aether ($29.99, scores 54) beats it on value, while it beats Capcom Arcade Stadium (free, scores 1).

If you want to experience the only time Robo-Ky MK-II is in a game, and why Japanese fans love him enough to be in MUGEN, go play it. We robos...

I feel kinda mixed on recommending it. This version feels kinda pointless when the other Guilty Gears are on steam, but it does have a 4 player gamemode which is pretty fun The factory mode is cool as well. It is a lazy port though and hard to get into but i recommend it (only on sale) for the 4 player shenanigans and sountrack alone. PROS + Introduced A.B.A and Order Sol. + 24 characters that have peak design. +...

The black sheep of the series and only now do I understand why. Not only does it not want to run well out of a fresh install… but it plays terribly too. Trying to change window sizes, resolutions, and trying to get a controller or leverless to work were all battles each on their own. Even when I got my leverless to work… I found I could not switch directions without throwing or being thrown. Of course once I got...
