On September 21, 2021, director Nobuya Narita and composer Raito confirmed on Twitter that the "next" installment of Under Night In-Birth was in development. Narita expressed interest in the announcement of said title coinciding with the tenth anniversary of the original release of the game. It was not explicitly stated whether this referred to a new version of Under Night In-Birth or a wholly new title set within the same universe.[24][25] Eventually during Evolution Championship Series on August 4, 2023, the title was announced to be a sequel titled Under Night In-Birth II [Sys:Celes] and is set to be released on January 25, 2024. It will serve as a final chapter of the series.[26] It will feature DLC characters in season passes.[27]
During Paris Games Week 2023, an open beta test for [Sys:Celes] was announced to take place from November 17 to 20, 2023 for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.[28]
Gameplay edit
Under Night In-Birth is a 2D fighting game with similar mechanics to Melty Blood, Guilty Gear and BlazBlue. Characters have weak, medium, and strong attack buttons, along with a fourth button tied to the game's Grind system. Attacks can cancel into each other in any order, and they can also cancel into special attacks and super attacks.
The Grind system, abbreviated to GRD in the game, is a tug-of-war mechanic between players that rewards them for certain defensive and offensive actions during gameplay. This is visually represented by an on-screen gauge called the Grind Grid, which shows the influence each player has during a match. Playing aggressively and utilizing system mechanics well increases a player's influence over the Grind Grid, while actions such as taking damage and retreating lowers their influence. At set intervals of time, the game evaluates which player has the most influence over the Grind Grid and rewards that player with various advantages, such as a temporary damage increase and the ability to cancel any attack at the expense of resources. When utilized poorly, such as failing to guard against an attack with the appropriate defensive shield, a player can temporarily be locked out of functions related to the Grind system and placed at a disadvantage.
A traditional super meter known as the EXS Gauge fills up whenever players attack or get hit. Characters can expend resources from this gauge for various functions, such as enhancing special attacks, performing super attacks known as Infinite Worths, or changing momentum from a defensive position. At low health, characters can also use a unique super attack called an Infinite Worth EXS, which are highly damaging and often feature a cinematic element when performed successfully.
Each later release after original Exe:Late adds new features:
- Exe:Late[st/cl-r] adds Cross-Cast Veil Off, a combo-based burst where characters with at least half a bar of super meter and Vorpal state can cancel combos into a Veil Off burst; and a prequel-based visual novel series Chronicle Mode.
- II [Sys:Celes] adds not only custom coloring and rollback netcode which first appeared in Melty Blood: Type Lumina, but also a Celestial variant of GRD Vorpal when players' GRD is at level six or beyond, and a dodge roll-based Creeping Edge.
Plot edit
Every month, since feudal times, a phenomenon called the Hollow Night brings forth invisible, immortal creatures called Voids. They feed upon a power known as EXS, which they gain by attacking humans caught within the Hollow Night. Though the attacks mostly results in either death or Void transformation of victims who go insane, anyone who survives with their sanity intact becomes an In-Birth, gaining the ability to control EXS. After surviving a Void attack, high school student Hyde Kido receives the power to summon Insulator, a magical sword with the ability to kill In-Births. Particularly exceptional In-Births known as Re-Births also exist, though there are few of them. An immortal Re-Birth girl named Linne offers to train Hyde with powers on the condition that when he is ready, he will end her life. Caught in a battle by others vying for control over EXS, Hyde finds a way to survive until the next night.[29]
At the end of the Exe:Late sub-series, Hyde and Linne confront the leader of the Amnesia organization, Hilda the Paradox. However, they discover the presence of Linne's fallen twin brother and the original wielder of Insulator, Kuon the Aeon. With Kuon planning to destroy the world, Linne confronts him alone, leading to the events of [Sys:Celes].[26]
Characters edit
The original release of the game included ten playable characters, with two more being added post-launch before the game was retitled to Exe:Late. The roster currently has a total of 24 fighters as of Under Night In-Birth II [Sys:Celes] and one of its Season Pass DLC, with two of these being guest characters from other fighting games. Most of these playable characters who are added after the original title originally either non-playable or being referred by most of them in previous entries. The game has Japanese-language voice acting.[30] Some characters who first appeared in Exe:Late to Exe:Late[st] later appeared in BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle, where they received English voice actors for the first time.[31]
- Introduced in the Exe:Late sub-series
- Hyde Kido (城戸 灰都, Kido Haido): The protagonist of the game. A high school student and one of the survivors of a Void attack. He wields the legendary dark-red magical sword Insulator.
- Linne (リンネ, Rinne): An ancient immortal princess of the Night Blade and the current leading organization of the Hollow Night. She was cursed into a Re-Birth alongside her twin brother. They were reincarnated in their current host bodies. Her current one is a child who goes to elementary school, where she befriended a girl named Chiharu (チハル).
- Waldstein (ワレンシュタイン, Warenshutain): A hulking wise half-Void and Linne's guardian. He is a former member of the anti-Void organization Licht Kreis back in the day when he was a human, until his defection to Night Blade during a war between two organizations, after Kuon saved him from becoming a Void Fallen.
- Carmine Prime (カーマイン・プライム, Kāmain Puraimu): A young delinquent man with a violent attitude who both Hyde and Seth refer to as a "crayfish", with Carmine referring to them as "clownfish". He uses a strange red substance in battle which he falsely believes to be his own blood, and thus suffers from placebo wherein he feels weakened should he use his powers for too long.
- Orie Ballardiae (オリエ・バラーディア, Orie Barādia): A leader of her team within Licht Kreis whose parents were killed by an intelligent Void. Alongside a girl named Lex Bartholomew, she was sent undercover to Kanzakai under alias of a student "Orie Harada" ("原田 織依", "Harada Orie") where she befriends Hyde.
- Gordeau the Harvester (ハーヴスター・ゴルドー, Hābesutā Gorudō, Harvester Gordeau): A mercenary, a bartender, and one of the co-founders of Amnesia, an organization seeking to dominate the Hollow Night. He quits his job, after a freak incident involving the death of a fellow founder, Roger the Survivor (サーヴイヴー・ロジャー, Sābaibā Rojā, Survivor Roger), who was transformed into a Void Fallen in a same night as Amnesia's war against Demon Society led by Ogre (オーガ, Ōga).
- Merkava (メルカヴァ, Merukava): An amnesiac intelligent flying Void accused of killing Orie's parents. He was once a human seeking to become a Re-Birth. Upon his incomplete transformation into a Void, he not only retains part of his form, but survives in daylight with the cost being that his body often makes him hunger for human flesh. Merkava does not use EXS, but a power known as False, otherwise known as FLS.
- Vatista (バティスタ, Batisuta): Unit code, 10,067. An ancient "Autonomic Nerve" designed as an anti-Void weapon. She is known to lack common sense among human society and will bewilder those around her for not wearing clothes. She used to have a seventh wing, but it transformed into the sword Insulator. Vatista also uses the power of FLS rather than EXS abilities.
- Seth the Assassin (アサシン・セト, Asashin Seto, Assassin Seth): An assassin of the Night Blade. He met Linne when she was under the alias of a young woman, Chitose (チトセ). Seth wields a pair of dark-blue magical daggers Eliminator he received from a secret contractor and organization member.
- Yuzuriha (ユズリハ): A not so smart female samurai hailed from the clan who founded the fighting style Dual Moon Blade Swordsmanship, created their sacred katana Iris Blade: Kamiji-no-Homare, and used to work for Night Blade. Tired of the fighting between Night Blade and Licht Kreis, Yuzuriha's clan defected from their former organization and plans to use their ability to bring peace through generations, with Yuzuriha as their latest heir. Yuzuriha also has a liking to rice crackers.
- Hilda the Paradox (パラドックス・ヒルダ, Paradokkusu Hiruda, Paradox Hilda): The antagonist of the Exe:Late sub-series, she is the leader and one of the co-founders of Amnesia who seeks to become a Re-Birth. She fuses the power of darkness and light. Hilda is known to be an airhead sometimes, along with being a little insane.
- Bloody Chaos (ブラッディ・ケイアス, Buraddi Keiasu): Real name Kei Asuma (明日真 景, Asuma Kei). He is Amnesia's chief strategist and has the ability to project and manifest objects he has obtained, though he usually uses this power to manifest books. He is accompanied by Azhi Dahaka (アジ・ダハーカ, Azi Dahāka), a monstrous lizard summoned from the Book of Chaos Code stolen from the Licht Kreis library shortly before joining Amnesia on the same night. He is Seth's contractor, and the one who found the daggers Eliminators from an unknown source.
- Nanase (ナナセ): A middle school student who is attacked by a Void and turned into an In-Birth. Not understanding how one becomes an In-Birth, she mistakenly believes Hyde to be responsible for her transformation.
- Byakuya (ビャクヤ): A middle school student accompanied by his "sister", Tsukuyomi (ツクヨミ). In truth, the real Tsukuyomi died in the accident where Byakuya lost his sanity due to his sister complex and became an In-Birth with the powers resembling that of a void. Byakuya eventually meets Strix (ストリックス, Sutorikkusu), a former member of a defunct Demon Society whom he first thought her to be his sister's reincarnation, and currently acts as her replacement.
- Phonon the Chermeti (シュメティ・フォノン, Shumeti Fonon, Chermeti Phonon)): Real name Yoshiko (良子). Nanase's best friend with a chūnibyō personality. A former member of an In-Birth school club EXS Force Guardians, or EFG for short. After receiving the EXS ability and be trained at EFG, left the club and becoming vigilante.
- Mika Returna (ミカ・リターナ, Mika Ritāna): A member of Licht Kreis and a member of Orie's team. She is often very reckless, stubborn and hyperactive to the point she is often punished by those above her by rank as if they are her parents. She is known to have temper tantrums as if she were a toddler. Despite her petite frame, she uses gauntlets almost bigger than her called Pachelbel Cannon and her EXS abilities are called Diesel.
- Gaien Enkidou (円鬼堂 凱庵, Enkidō Gaien): A martial artist who simply prefers to go by an edited form of his family name, Enkidu (エンキドゥ). He seeks strong opponents to fight to the death. In his search for strong opponents, he allowed himself to be bitten by a Void, but the toughness of his body only granted him a small amount of EXS. A pair of large shackles on his wrists act as limiters, and removing them for a limited time allows Enkidu to unleash his full EXS potential in an unsealed state. He was a member of Amnesia until he resigned from the organization at the end of the events of Exe:Late.
- Miyashiro Erika Wagner (宮代・エリカ・ワーグナー, Miyashiro Erika Wāgunā): One of the members of Licht Kreis. She is Orie's self-proclaimed rival and was sent to school in Japan due to her reckless and albeit questionable methods on the job. She took the responsibility of putting down Roger the Survivor when he transformed into a Void Fallen during a freak incident. Wagner uses the power of fire, which also allows her to summon both sword and shield.
- Londrekia Light (ロンドレキア・ライト, Rondorekia Raito): Wagner's self-proclaimed rival and a member of Ritter Schild, a male-only branch organization of Licht Kreis resulting from Waldstein's defection to the Night Blade. He fights with a baton and the power of ice.
- Introduced in II [Sys:Celes]
- Kuon the Aeon (アイオン・クオン, Aion Kuon, Aeon Kuon): The overarching antagonist of the series and Linne's twin brother. Prior to becoming a Re-Birth, he was once a noble leader of Night Blade and the original wielder of the Insulator before Hyde. After his transformation into a Re-Birth, he progressively became more evil and his physiology changed into that of a dark elf with a Void-like power. He currently battles with eight flying blades resembling Insulator. His true plan is eventually revealed in [Sys:Celes] to destroy the Earth.
- Kaguya Seikaiguu (カグヤ・セイカイグー): A dual gun wielding 6th Executor exorcist of Orie’s Licht Kreis team, with a rich family background.
- Tsurugi (ツルギ): A red-haired vice leader of vigilante school group EFG, and is a close friend of Hyde at a same school where EFG is based at. He wields a shield which represents his will to protect and serve those who are near him.
Guest Characters:
- Sion Eltnum Altasia (シオン＝エルトナム＝アトラシア) from the fighting game series for Tsukihime franchise, Melty Blood. She is referred to as Eltnum (エルトナム) within the game's context. One of the main characters in Melty Blood, Eltnum has a supporting role in the main story of Under Night In-Birth. She often remarks on other fighters as if they are novices and shows awareness that she is a character from French-Bread's past games. This awareness extends to meta-references about appearing in arcade games and information related to that subject, such as the Sega Naomi hardware used for Melty Blood Actress Again and Team Arcana's defunct parent company, Examu.
- Akatsuki (アカツキ) from Subtle Style’s fighting game series Akatsuki Shisei Ichigō/Blitzkampf, and its sequel EN-Eins Perfektewelt, who served as the titular protagonist of the former game. He has little to no role to the main story. Unlike Eltnum, Akatsuki is in no way self aware and only looking for a way to get back to his duties.

Under Night In-Birth began development in 2010. Series director and producer Nobuya Narita explained that development arose from the team's experiences working on Melty Blood and a tentative remake of the game. French-Bread originally planned to work in high definition for the remake, but development later stalled while Type-Moon went on to work on Witch on the Holy Night. Early prototypes provided the foundation for Under Night In-Birth. Narita emphasized they wanted to differentiate the game from Melty Blood, so the lore, visuals, systems and combat flow are very different from the previous work. It marked the team's first game using high definition and hand-drawn high-resolution sprites.[32] Due to the challenges they faced working in high definition with high-resolution assets for the first time, Narita and other French-Bread staff frequently consulted staff from Arc System Works, including Guilty Gear and BlazBlue producer Toshimichi Mori.[33]
A decade later, French-Bread and Type-Moon would eventually work together again to continue development on the Melty Blood HD remake project. With the studio's work on Under Night In-Birth serving as the foundation, the previously untitled remake was announced as Melty Blood: Type Lumina, which would serve as a reboot to the Melty Blood series and as a prequel to the 2021 remake of Tsukihime.
Reception edit
The PlayStation 3 version of the game received a 29/40 by Famitsu.[41] Reviewers appreciated the ease of the controls but felt there was a barrier to entry and that the basics could be better explained.[44] Kyle MacGregor of Destructoid said that it was "an intelligent, tactical fighting game that I'll surely be playing for a long time to come." Victor Ayora of IGN Spain said it was "One good fighting game. Maybe it's not as deep as previous Arc System Works games, but successfully achieves what it is aiming: to let the player enjoy it." Biagio Etna of IGN Italy lauded the art and combat system but criticized the steep learning curve and the pacing of the visual novel-style Chronicle Mode introduced in Exe:Late[st].[45] Filippo Facchetti of Eurogamer concluded "an interesting 2D fighting game with a very unique fighting system. Just try it, and you'll be amazed." Exe:Late[cl-r] was nominated for the category of Best Fighting Game at The Game Awards 2020, but lost to Mortal Kombat 11.[46]
