Category:Bloody Roar

Bloody Roar is a series of fighting games created by Hudson Soft and developed with Eighting. The series began as an Arcade game in 1997 under the name Beastorizer. The game's theme incorporated anthropomorphism, where the player has the ability to transform into a half-human, half-animal creature known as a Zoanthrope (the name came from the clinical term, 'zoanthropy', which is similar to that of lycanthropy, but not just with the mind-set of a wolf). The game would appear under the name Bloody Roar when ported to the PlayStation in 1998, which would become the permanent title thereafter. There are three sequels, plus a game based on a sidestory set between 3 and 4 on the Nintendo GameCube and which was later ported to the Xbox.
