Sometime in the year 20XX, space-time anomalies
ripple throughout cities across the world and forces
their shut-down by the powers that be. To
investigate the events and keep things under
control, a special task forced called Shinra is
established in Tokyo. Two agents from Shinra serve
as the protagonists in the game - Shaomu and Reiji.
As the duo start their investigation in the
Shibuya district of Tokyo, the heroes from Xenosaga
slips through a time anomaly along with ephemeral
Gnosis entities. Shaomu and Reiji team up with
M.O.M.O, KOS-MOS, and Shion to defeat the Gnosis and
soon find new time anomalies that take them to the
worlds of Namco and Capcom which may lead them to
the answers they seek...
Over 200 recognizable characters from the Capcom
and Namco camps appear in the game including the
cast of Street Fighter, Vampire, Tekken, Dino
Crisis, Tales of Destiny, and many more. Individual
characters that appear in the game include Captain
Commando, Strider, Rockman, Klonoa, and many more.
Namco X Capcom is not a fighting game but a
strategy game in the style of Super Robot Wars where
gamers control teams of Namco or Capcom character in
tactical battles. When an encounter takes place, the
perspective changes to a side view of the attacker
launching an massive attack on the target. Watch in
wonderment as familiar heroes such as Mitsurugi of
Soul Calibur fame, Morrigan from Vampire, Ryu from
Street Fighter, Strider, Klonoa, Rockman, and many
others throw out trademark attacks which light up
the screen.
