In Rebirth of Souls, players can incarnate some of their favourite characters from the legendary anime franchise to fight in battles that will put their powerful sword abilities to the test. With the possibility to unlock new blades and forms in battle, players can reverse any outcome as their character can become stronger as their defeat looms closer.
