The game was released for [[PlayStation 4]] in June 2018, with ports for [[Microsoft Windows]] and [[arcades]] currently in development.


Fighting EX Layer is played in a 2.5D environment. Battles take place in closed arenas, which vary in size and width. The gameplay retains many of the mechanics from Arika's previous fighting games, such as Super Cancels and running. Additionally, the game features ground chain combos, an auto-combo system, and an optional Progressive mode which simplifies command inputs. Fighting EX Layer also introduces Gougi Boost, which grants players additional bonuses and enhancements during a match. These boosts can be customized by selecting different Gougi decks before the match begins.

Following failed pitches to [[Capcom]] for a continuation of the Street Fighter EX series, staff at Arika began working on a 3D fighting game prototype to familiarize themselves with Unreal Engine 4. They decided to record some footage of the then-untitled prototype and release a trailer on April Fools' Day in [[2017]]. The positive reaction from fans led Arika to turn the project into a full-fledged game, which they officially confirmed at Evo 2017.

The game is available in two versions: A lower-priced "light" version of the game includes twelve playable characters and five Gougi decks. The standard edition of the game includes all of the content from the light version, along with the playable character Hokuto and ten additional Gougi decks. Arika also stated their intentions to add four more characters from Street Fighter EX as downloadable content if their first-month sales targets were met.
