Description
In the fighting games industry, a Cross Combo refers to a strategic and synchronized sequence of attacks executed by two or more characters acting in unison. This mechanic allows players to string together moves from different characters to create a continuous assault, often leading to increased damage and more dynamic gameplay. Cross Combos require precise timing and a deep understanding of each character's moveset to maximize their effectiveness. They are typically seen in tag team fighting games where players can switch between characters mid-combo to keep opponents on their toes. The integration of Cross Combos adds an extra layer of strategy and excitement, as players must not only master individual characters but also learn how to effectively combine their abilities.
Examples
- In 'Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite', players can switch between their two chosen characters mid-combo to extend their attack sequences, creating a seamless and powerful Cross Combo.
- In 'Dragon Ball FighterZ', the Z-Change mechanic allows players to call in their teammates to continue a combo, resulting in elaborate and high-damage Cross Combos that can turn the tide of a match.
Additional Information
- Cross Combos often require practice and coordination to perform effectively, making them a skillful aspect of gameplay.
- They can be used both offensively to pressure opponents and defensively to escape difficult situations.
