About the Game

Arcane Rivals is a combo‑based, voice‑interactive PvP fighting game. Quickly weave hand signs (Make Handsigns), then speak the name of the spell into your mic to unleash the technique (Cast Jutsus via Voice). Reflexes, timing, and clear pronunciation are the keys to victory.

  • Make Handsigns – Execute the hand signs you’ve learned in the correct order; the longer the sequence, the stronger the technique.

  • Cast Jutsus via Voice – Say the name of the spell into your microphone; timing and correct pronunciation affect success.

  • Chain and counter – Link techniques together, interrupt your opponent’s moves, and seize the momentum.

Highlights

  • Voice‑controlled combat: Cast by speaking into your mic; your voice drives the flow of battle.

  • Combo‑focused mechanics: Combine hand signs to build short or extended chains.

  • Anime‑inspired flair: Fast, flashy techniques and energy‑packed effects.

  • PvP‑first: Short, high‑tempo duels where knowledge, reflexes, and voice mastery shine.

  • Microphone required: For the best experience, a headset + microphone is recommended.

In the arena, both your voice and your hands lead—weave your signs, seal the spell with your voice, and take down your rival!
