“All right! The time has come! J.J.! Tempest! We’re taking off! Say bye-bye, ’cause we’re outta here!”
Uzuki is every bit as monstrous on the inside as she is elegant on the outside. All she wants to do is play with her bizarre powers and see lots of people suffer. This led her to join Amne- sia, which she’d heard was full of interesting people. But when it turned out that the leader of Amnesia was obsessed with gaining further power in order to become a Re-Birth, Uzuki lost interest. The solution was simple: All she had to do was rip things apart until the fun came back. Thus begins her story of rebellion.
Season Pass DLC characters Uzuki, Ogre, and Izumi will join the roster of UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH II Sys:Celes over the course of the next year. A previously released roadmap confirmed that Uzuki will launch first in August 2024, followed by Ogre in February 2025 and Izumi in August 2025.
UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH II Sys:Celes is the latest installment in the popular UNDER NIGHT 2D fighting game series. The game introduces new playable characters in what’s considered the culmination of the current UNDER NIGHT saga. For players interested in the title, EVO 2024 will have it as a game in the main lineup. More news regarding the game’s future is also expected to be shown at the annual fighting game event.
UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH II Sys:Celes is available now for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam.
