Rumble Roses

Rumble Roses for the PlayStation 2 is an action-packed wrestling experience. Choose from a large roster of fighters and compete across numerous match types with plenty of different options. The game also features an in-depth Story Mode with many twists and turns.

• Fighting Mechanics: Fight with standard wrestling pins and submissions, alongside over-the-top "killer moves" and mud wrestling.
• Face/Heel System: Each character has a "Face" (good) and "Heel" (bad) persona with different outfits, attitudes, and move sets.
• The Vow System: In-game choices, taunts, and match outcomes trigger a transformation. This system shifts a character's alignment to completely flip their personality, costume, and move set.
• AI Match Customization: The game features an advanced computer-controlled AI where players can set up AI vs. AI exhibition matches in a dedicated watch mode to observe complex tactical counters and character behavior without manual input.

The narrative reaches its dramatic climax in the single-player Story Mode, where players must fight through boss battles, including a villainous nurse operating as the mastermind of a secret organization. Mastering the games' intricate counter-reversal timing and leveraging the high-flying Lethal Moves will help to pin opponents or force submissions. Rumble Roses is a cult classic fighting game that is a staple of any Playstation 2 collection.
