Back in 2012 Under Night In-Birth released in Japanese arcades and combined visual novel storytelling with a fighting game. A major revision was released soon after dubbed Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late that brought about various balance changes and additional characters. The game was subsequently ported to consoles and PC’s over the years where it was able to attain a cult following. Another revision followed in 2017, Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st], and now in 2019 Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r] has just been announced!
Developer French Bread has taken the opportunity with this latest revision to Under Night In-Birth to further improve balance and optimization between characters. A new playable character has also been revealed with the ice fighter Londrekia. From the trailer above, it looks like this new fighter comes equipped with a long sword and specials involve, unsurprisingly, ice. An Ice cross finisher is also displayed and looks marvelously brutal! Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r] is expected to launch in 2020 for PC, PS4 and Switch so keep an eye out.
