Quick Facts Kamen Rider: Climax Heroes, Developer(s) ...

Kamen Rider: Climax Heroes (仮面ライダー クライマックスヒーローズ, Kamen Raidā Kuraimakkusu Hīrōzu, Masked Rider: Climax Heroes) is a series of 3D fighting game. The original Climax Heroes was released for the PlayStation 2 as part of the 10th anniversary celebration of the Heisei Kamen Rider Series by Toei, TV Asahi, Ishimori Productions, and Bandai.[1] The game spawned four sequels as well as an American version for the Nintendo Wii based on the Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight TV series.[citation needed]

Gameplay

Combat in the game operates on a basic three-button system, encompassing Weak Attacks, Strong Attacks, and Special Attacks (such as the various Rider Kicks). In addition, many Riders have the ability to perform a Form Change once the Rider Gauge at the bottom of the screen fills by dealing or receiving damage, or by charging the meter. Form Change can be used as a counterattack or to extend combos. A number of Riders also have the ability to summon Strikers, such as Ryuki's Contract Monster Dragredder or Den-O's DenLiner. Also, each Rider has a unique finisher called 'Rider Finale'. This attack can only be activated when the 'Rider Gauge' is full and the R2 button is pressed.

Decade Mode

In Decade Mode, the player follows Tsukasa Kadoya's journey through nine Heisei Kamen Rider worlds as Kamen Rider Decade, fighting the other Riders and attempting to prevent the destruction of the worlds. Decade Mode differs from standard gameplay in that Decade's Form Change and Special Attacks are customizable with KamenRide Cards and Final FormRide Cards earned as the player progresses. The missions in the mode are divided by three levels, with the easiest missions can be played in Level 1 while the hardest can be found in Level 3. Level 2 and 3 can be unlocked as the player progress in Level 1.
