On-screen stick and buttons

Move with a stick that follows your thumb or with a D-pad. Edit button layout lets you drag the stick or D-pad and each button where you want it and resize it. In six-button mode the buttons move and resize as one group.

Gamepad

No gamepad found yet.

Action	Button

Click a button name, then press the new button on the gamepad.

Move with the left stick or the D-pad. The first gamepad you press a button on is player 1 and the next is player 2; both use this layout. Names follow an Xbox pad: A is the bottom button of the four.

How a fight really works

System

BLOCKHold back: Lows need down-back. Jump attacks and the overhead must be blocked standing. Specials chip.
PARRYTap toward the hit: Tap → within 8 frames before a strike lands, or ↓ against lows. No damage, and you recover first. A missed tap locks you out for 20 frames.
COUNTERHit their startup: +20% damage and 2 extra frames of hitstun.
PUNISHHit their recovery: +20% damage and 4 extra frames, enough to link moves that normally don't combo.
CANCELNormal → special → super: Punches, st.LK and cr.MK cancel into specials on hit or block. Any special, EX or not, cancels into a super or the Ultimate, on the ground or in the air. Projectile specials cancel in the moment after the shot leaves, hit or not.
LAUNCHcr.HP starts an air combo: Every fighter has the same basic string into it: LP, MP, then crouching HP, each pressed as the one before lands. Crouching heavy punch launches, and when it hits you leap up after them by yourself (hold back to stay on the ground, or cancel into a special instead). In the air, light and medium hits knock them away from you and chain light → medium → heavy; a heavy punch or kick smashes them straight down. The first smash of a combo bounces them off the floor so you can keep hitting them; a second one slams them down for good.
JUGGLEEight points: A launched body can be hit by anything. Normals and EX cost 1 point, specials 2, supers 3. At 8 it falls free. Some air moves bounce it off the floor.
RUSHTap →→ on contact: Spend 1 bar to cancel a cancellable normal into a fast dash. The next hit gets 4 extra frames, so heavy → rush → heavy combos.
STUNThe bar under your health: Taking hits fills it; it drains when you are left alone. Fill it and you are knocked down and get up dizzy. Mash buttons and wiggle the stick to recover sooner.
LINKPlus frames: st.MP is +6 on hit and cr.MP starts in 6, so it combos with no cancel. Inputs buffer for 5 frames.
THROWBeats blocking: 5-frame startup. Press LP+LK within 8 frames of being grabbed to tech it. Hold back to throw behind you.
GAUGEThree bars: EX and rush cancels cost 1, supers 2, the Ultimate all 3. Hitting, blocking and parrying build it, and it carries between rounds.
ULTIMATE↓↙←↓↙← + P or K: A zoom, a flash, then a fast invincible strike. If it lands, even mid-juggle, the full sequence plays. Blocked, you are wide open. Jason's is a running grab instead. Every super and ultimate can be guarded, grabs included.
SCOREArcade mode: Damage scores as you deal it. Winning a round adds time and vitality bonuses, 30,000 for a perfect, and extra for finishing with a super or Ultimate. Continuing resets your score.
COLORSFive each, and one to earn: After you pick a fighter you pick their colour: left and right to look, then confirm. Every fighter has five. The sixth is Shadow, and you earn it for a fighter by finishing Arcade with them, beating their own shadow at the end. Shadow is not used in online matches.
