“Fierce battle” mode where you become Kenshiro and defeat your nemesis
In addition to regular exercises, this game adds a new mode, “Fighting Battle”, in which the player assumes the role of Kenshiro and defeats the enemy with punches, just like in a rhythm game. Two battles are recorded, “Zako Battle” where you punch down a lot of Zako, and “Boss Battle” where you fight against Kenshiro’s nemesis, so you can enjoy exercises with enhanced action gameplay.
In the “Boss Battle”, Jagi (voiced by Yasuhiko Kawazu) and other arch-enemies who fought Kenshiro in “Fist of the North Star” will appear. In addition to normal attacks, secret techniques such as “Hokuto Rakan Geki” are also unleashed, so hit the enemy with well-timed punches and block while damaging the enemy. If a certain amount of damage is dealt, the player can also activate the mystery “Hokuto Hyakureken” and decide the finish with repeated hits. If you decide the mystery comfortably, you can enjoy an even more exhilarating feeling.
In addition to the characters who appear as instructors, there are also characters who become instructors after defeating them in the “Boss Battle”.
