Storyline[]

Summery[]

Every single world is connected to one and another, either directly or through a secret link that only a few are aware of. The people were referred to as: "guardians" and while most of them were focused on making their own lives better. One of them, (Anton) actually took his job as a guardian seriously and did the best he could to keep the links between all these worlds safe. He knew that if the wrong people discovered the way to connect the worlds, then it could mean the destruction of everything in existence. However, because he was calm, open-minded and honest with his opinions, he was considered a traitor to the majority of the other guardians. Even if he helped them with things that the asked him to help with. One day, one of the other "higher guardians" (a guardian that has received a higher status with the help of support from others), decided to backstab his fellow guardians. So he purposely opened the floodgates for all the worlds to fuse together into one colossal “Mega Planet”. Most of the other guardians where mostly okay with this, because they thought the “high guardian” could do no wrong whatsoever. Even if he purposely and because he was bored, decided to cause the catastrophe that the guardians where destined to prevent. Anton realized what was going on and try to stop the “higher guardian”. But he was instantly called a “traitor” and “back-stabber” among other things by the majority of the other guardians. After a long fight and an even longer debate, the “honest guardian” was banished from his position, while the “higher guardian” received even more fame and glory. All while the worlds slowly fused together. And to make matters worse, the merging of the worlds opened a black hole where several Elder Gods, Cthulhu, Hastur and Nyarlothotep, along several others, which were previously banished by the guardians in the distant past. They became intrigued by the merging of all these worlds and set out to harness the life-energies of all beings that were from the worlds that were affected. Anton realized that the apocalypse was about to happen, so he travelled to all these combined worlds in an attempt to help its inhabitants to discover the truth. But unfortunately, most of them did not listen to him, because thanks to the "High guardian" and his closest allies, all guardians, including Anton had been given a horrible reputation. Even if there were some that believed Anton, they were not sure if he was telling the truth or not. Anton didn't give up and he kept on trying, but he realized that he just couldn't make them understand. Especially considering that some of the inhabitants actually appreciated the Elder Gods arrival. So he went out to confront the deities all by himelf, but in doing so he ended up dieing, just like all the other guardians (including the one that caused all of this to happen). Upon his death, a quite large amount of heroes and even villians decided to work together to fight the Three Elder Gods. But at that time, Hastur had already casted a powerful spell on the inhabitants of all these worlds. The spell made them all furious with a desire for power, to make them battle each other and buy Nyarlothotep enough time to drain all the energy away. Cthulhu thought to himself that maybe three of these people would confront them personally after they were done killing each other. But was far from worried, he instead welcomed the idea, because he knew by the time it would happen, The Elder Gods would already be the most powerful creatures in all of existence itself.

Cinematic Movie[]

The game will feature a full HD cinematic movie similar to Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover in the game "Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue". Except that the movie will be split up into multiple parts that focuses on different characters and their perspective of the story as a whole.

The overall length of the movie is unknown, but due to the scale of the game itself. The full movie with all the parts combined, might add up to three hours.

Gameplay Mechanics[]

The gameplay is mostly based on Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 except without assists, with the visual style of Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite. Where each player picks three characters battle each other. There are no rounds so when a players three characters are knocked out, the match is over. However the Air Cross-over counter is based on the early builds of Marvel vs. Capcom 3, so the player that gets stuck into a Team Aerial Combo can counter with a continued Team Aerial Combo on hers/his own.

Just like in Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and its Ultimate edition; Millennia Hyper Fighting 2016 has the X-Factor mechanic. But the duration of each of the levels are slightly different:

Level 1 - 12 seconds
Level 2 - 9 seconds
Level 3 - 6 seconds

The versions that gives the smallest bonuses are the ones that last the longest and not the other way around like in Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and its Ultimate edition. But there is also the option to turn X-Factor off in the Options-menu. The recovery-time after an Assist has been used is also slower than Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 but faster than Tatsunoko vs. Capcom.

PLAYABLE CHARACTERS[]

Millennia-Hyper-Fighting-2016-(Character-Select-Screen) — The complete character selection-screen!

The game will have a total of 66 characters from various types of media. 39 of them originates from various Video Games, while the remaining 27 originates from movies, cartoons, animes and similar things. 24 of these characters are said to be female and 50 of these characters will be playable from the start and the remaining 16 has to be unlocked by buying them in the shop for 10.000 Fightcrowns each.

Character List[]

Just like in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom and Marvel vs. Capcom 1 & 3 (Ultimate). Every playable character will have a personal theme that will play when they get tagged in after another character on the same team has been knocked out. Unless the theme that is playing belongs to the character that is coming in.

Possible Future characters[]

According to the developers, there where six additional characters that they really wanted to put in the game. But these characters ended up getting scrapped because of a combination of a lack of time and the desire to make the character roster as varied as possible. So far four of those characters have been confirmed and it is unknown whenever the developers are going to confirm who the other three are or even if they will be added as DLC in the future.

Celica and Twilight Sparkle are not one of the six additional characters, but they were put up for consideration due to fan-feedback.

Voice Actors/Actresses[]

Most playable characters will have a voice actor/actress (there might be some that don't even have a voice) and some of them will even have the choice between two different voices. A "Main" one that is the one that is set on by default and a "Alternate" one that can be used instead, by going to the options-menu.

All the voice actors/actresses for the playable characters (both the main and the alternate) are listed on the individual character pages.

Lovecraftian Destruction[]

"Lovecraftian Destruction" is a game-mode that was added as DLC where the player can chose Cthulhu, Hastur or Nyarlothotep (along with two random "Assist Characters"). After the player has selected which characters to play as, then the selected characters has to fight through the entire roster of playable character (similar to "Galactus-mode" in "Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3"). If the player gets defeated, then it has start over from the very beginning. Then after the all the playable characters has been defeated, the player will get treated a unique ending for either Cthulhu, Hastur or Nyarlothotep.

The three Elder Gods cannot be playable outside of this game-mode!

STAGES[]

The game will have a total of 30 stages, with most if not all being connected to a playable character. The majority of stages are unlocked from the very beginning, but six of these stages has to be unlocked by completing a certain task and then buying them in the shop for 35.000 Fightcrowns.

LIST OF STAGES THAT ARE UNLOCKED FROM THE START:

Non-Selectable Stages[]

These stages are used as exclusive fighting grounds for the boss battles in Arcade Mode and they cannot be used in regular battles (online or offline).

Arcade Mode[]

Just like the majority of Fighting Games, there will be a single-player mode that focuses on the player (and its three selected characters) going through multiple stages and fighting a powerful boss at the very end.

"Formula"[]

The Arcade Mode will be made of nine stages (six normal battles, two sub-bosses (one of which has can come in two different variations) and a final boss with five forms).

Three Random Characters that are not the characters that the player selected or their rivals
Three Random Characters that are not the characters that the player selected or their rivals
Three Random Characters that are not the characters that the player selected or their rivals
Mid-Boss (one of the following:)
- Pink Elephants
- Heffalumps & Woozles
Three Random Characters that are not the characters that the player selected or their rivals
Three Random Characters that are not the characters that the player selected or their rivals
Three Random Characters that are not the characters that the player selected or their rivals

2. Nyarlothotep & Two Random "Assists" (Bokrug, Dagon and Oorn)
3. Cthulhu, Flying Polyps, Nug & Yeb & Hziulquoigmnzhah

Bosses[]

MID-BOSSES and SUB-BOSS[]

The mid-boss is a wave of several creatures that are a group that hasn't been announced yet or the Heffalumps and Woozles from the Winnie-The-Pooh franchise. When the battle starts, then the player will have to defeat as many members of the wave as possible before either the time runs out (which is shortly after the "Boss Battle Theme" ends) or when three of the players characters die. The members of the wave will take on forms that appear in the musical-numbers that they are featured in, with a very powerful member at the very end.

IF THE DICE-BLOCK SHOWS EVEN NUMBERS (2, 4 or 6):

IF THE DICE-BLOCK SHOWS UNEVEN NUMBERS (1, 3 or 5):

The Sub-Boss are the official rivals of the characters that the player has selected, but powered-up with the power of Pandora. This will grant all of the characters a power-boost that is identical to the boost they receive in their Level 3 X-factor, except it is permanent.

However, if the player manages to get a total of six perfects (for every regular battle with normal opponents) and beat the either the Pink Elephants or the Heffalumps and Woozles faster than 60 seconds). Then the three characters that the player has selected will instead fight Mechagodzilla (who fights in a similar whay to Galactus in Marvel vs. Capcom 3, with claw slashes, missile barrages, laser beams and body rams).

The Final Boss[]

The Final boss "Lovecraftian Invasion" has a total of three different phases that all uses different tactics to fight his opponents. If the player loses to any of the phases and choses to continue, then the battle will start over from the very first form. In between the forms, the player characters will recover 10 % of the damage they have taken during previous form. But if X-Factor has been used, then it will not come back.

In the first phase, the player will fight Hastur and two of the other elder gods that they brought along in the similar vain to how a normal battle occurs in the game (except that Hastur can call upon "Assist" like in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3). The second phase is similar to the first one, except that the player will fight Nyarlothotep and two other elder gods that they brought along. Then after Hastur and Nyarlothotep has been defeated, Cthulhu will confront the player, along with some "Flying Polyps", "Nug & Yeb" and a random elder god.

Ending Movies[]

After the players has beaten this mode, it will be rewarded with an ending movie for the character that dealt the final blow on the Final Boss. The endings are mostly done in different animations similar to "Tekken Tag Tournament 2", with most of them being animated by the companies that own the character (and in their respective style). Most of the endings are also crossovers with a character making a reference to a completely franchise, mostly for a comedic effect.

Ham-Ham Easter Egg[]

Sometimes when the players are going through the menus (both online and offline), four different characters from the anime "Hamtaro" (including Hamtaro himself) will randomly show up at random spots on the screen. They will either run around the screen and the "boxes" or they'll just sit at a random spot and bob their heads back and forth (or sleep in the case of "Snoozer". If the player manages catch them, before they runs away, then they do something particular depending on what Ham-Ham it is.

Announcers[]

There are twelve (technically thirteen) announcers included in the game. Two of them are available from the start, while the rest can be unlocked by buying them in the shop for a 10.000 Fightcrowns (the in-game currency).

LIST OF ANNOUNCERS IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER:

In the Options-Menu, it is also possible to change to have the announcers commentate the match or just say their lines outside of the battle.

Misc. Music Tracks[]

All of the "important" songs besides the character themes, boss themes and the two opening-themes are listed here:

The character select themes that have a * next to them are songs that have to be bought in the shop in order have them play on the character select screen.

TRIVIA[]

The entire roster has actually been leaked on an update-video that ARC did on Youtube and a few people has noticed it. Including it in the video is a decision that ARC regrets but did not feel like getting rid of.
None of the characters that are playable in Super ARC Bros. Brawl will be playable in this game. However some characters may appear in another incarnation (such as Rainbow Dash), while others may have been Assist Trophies (such as Deadpool and Johnny Cage), Bosses, Smash Run enemies and other things in that game. There are also some playable characters in this game, that were intended for that game (such as Lucina).
Even though Grovyle represents the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon-games, he is grouped together with the other Pokémon reps (That represents the main games primarily) on the Character-Select screen, instead of being beneath them.
- He is also the first character (so far) to receive an artwork-change compared to the "Group-picture" and on the leaked character-select screen. While the second was Lucina who received a new artwork after the character-select screen was officially revealed.
Despite that Yoshi is listed under the game he made his original debut in, "Super Mario World", he is still not categorized as a "Mario-character" like Luigi and Rosalina. But as a "Yoshi-character", just like in the Super Smash Bros.-games.
Leatherface and Pingu as the only characters so far whose voice actors are completely unknown and only referred to the game (tv-show in the case for Pingu) that they voices the characters in.
- Though in Pingu's case, it is also every other character that originates from his franchise and even the language is listed as unknown when it is usually listed as either "English" or "Japanese". Since Leatherface's voice actor is listed as "English".
Amaterasu and Spinosaurus are the only characters so far that have no voice-actors at all, instead their lines of dialogues consists of various animalistic sound-effects.
Hoopa is the first character to have multiple voice actors for the same language (two for Japanese and two for English), this is because it can transform into Hoopa Unbound in his Level 3 super and thus gets a different voice.
Maenad is the only character who didn't have a previous voice actress, so this game marks the first time she has a speaking voice.
Compared to the roster of "Millennia Hyper Fighting 2014" (The information about "Millennia Hyper Fighting 2015" has been removed from the Internet). Several franchises has received characters that did not have them before, while others have been removed:

Hamtaro was originally going to be an announcer, but it was changed at the last minute because TMS Entertainment thought it would be more adorable for Bijou, Hamtaro, Pashmina and Snoozer) to randomly appear on the menus and surprise people.
There are some characters that have a battle theme that is not a theme from the video game/show that the character originated from:
1. Audino's theme is a remix of the Wild Pokémon Battle theme from Pokémon Black & White made by the Youtuber: "SSJ Sonic21".
2. Discord's theme is an original song made by the Youtuber: "Odyssey Eurobeat".
3. Erika's theme is a remix of the Gym Leader Battle theme from Pokémon HearthGold and SoulSilver by the Youtuber: "DJTheFishhead".
4. Flash's theme is an official song made by Shakira for the movie: "Zootopia".
5. Hoopa's theme is an original battle theme made by the Youtuber: "EternalSushi".
6. King Louie's theme is a remix of the song "I Wanna Be Like You" from Disney's version of "The Jungle Book" made by the Youtuber: "SimGretina".
7. Leatherface's theme is a potential theme that the Youtuber: "SuicidalBeatz" made for Mortal Kombat X.
8. Pingu's theme is a "trap remix" of the opening theme of the TV-show, created by the youtuber: "MajorLeagueWobs".
9. Pinkie Pie's theme is her theme song from the unreleased fan-game: "My Little Pony: Fighting is Magic".
10. Princess Luna's theme is a remix of "Duo Cartoonist's" song: "Children of the Night" made by the Youtuber: "canapplejack".
11. Rainbow Dash's theme is her theme song from the unreleased fan-game: "My Little Pony: Fighting is Magic".
12. Rocket Raccoon's theme is a "tribute-song" made by the Youtuber: "miracleofsound".
13. Scyther's theme is a remix of the Wild Pokémon Battle theme from Pokémon FireRed & LeafGreen made by the Youtuber: "XTProductions".
14. Shuma-Gorath's theme is his battle-theme from the video game: "Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds".
15. Spinosaurus's theme is the boss-battle theme against the Spinosaurus and the Tyrannosaurus Rex from the Video Game: "Jurassic: The Hunted".
16. Starlight Glimmer's theme is a song called "In Our Town (Starlight Glimmer Boss Remix)", that is based on a song from MLP:FiM, made by the youtuber: "KingSpartaX37".
Star Destroyer Docking Bay is the first of two stages that is listed under the game where it appeared in (Soul Calibur IV) and not under the franchise that it is based on (Star Wars). The reason for this could be because there was no source indicating which movie that the stage was based on.
- The second stage is Aensland Castle which is listed under (Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes) for the same reasons.
Slottsskogen Watertower is the only stage that can be played on, that is not connected to any playable character in the roster.
The entire story was rewritten for this game and received a brand-new villain, because the creator wanted to use "High Guardian A.R.C" as the Final Boss for a later project that he felt he was better suited for.
