Producer Atsushi Inaba had a few words to say on the game if you’re unsure as to what it’s all about:
“Hey guys. It’s Inaba, producer for Anarchy Reigns. Let me throw some words at you to explain this game:
Multiplayer.
Free-for-all.
Melee action.
A knock-down, drag-out brawl.
All sound like they add up to a little bit of a barbaric mix.
All right, let’s put something a little hi-tech in there:
Online.
We could probably go on finding words to describe Anarchy Reigns all day. But to put it short, the objective of this game is to link up with players from across the globe and beat the living daylights out of them.”
