Power Stone

Creator(s): Capcom | Release: 1999-2000

Power Stone is a 3D fighting game.

The franchise consists of:

• Power Stone (1999) which was released on the Dreamcast.

  • An animated TV series Power Stone consisting of 26 episodes and mainly follows Falcon.

• Power Stone 2 (2000) which was released on the Dreamcast.

Notable Gameplay Mechanics

• Power stones can be collected during combat and if 3 stones are collected, the character will transform into a stronger version of their character for a limited time

• Stages have different elements that can be interacted with including benches, poles, ceilings, and walls

  • Power Stone 2 adds moving stages which adds some platforming mechanics

• Power Stone is a 1v1 while Power Stone 2 is a 4 player free-for-all.

In 2006, Capcom ported both games to the PSP under the title Power Stone Collection. This collection contains slightly updated version of both games with additional content, namely:

• Kraken and Valgas from Power Stone can be unlocked in Power Stone 2.

• Accel, Mel, Gourmand, and Pete from Power Stone 2 can be unlocked in Power Stone.

I recommend playing Power Stone Collection.
