Red earth, or War-Zard as it’s known in Japan, is probably the most obscure 2D fighting game developed by Capcom. It was also an important game, being the first to run on Capcom's new CPS-3 hardware.
It may not have been as influential as Capcom's other fighting games but it was the most unique. It only has 4 playable characters for example and it includes RPG-like elements. It was also a visual tour de force, showcasing huge character sprites and an increased level of animation over previous Capcom fighters.
Sadly it's one of the most forgotten Capcom fighting games. Even after its inclusion in the Capcom Fighting Collection, it remains largely unknown. So, in this video I’m going to take a look at its history, the gameplay, its legacy and what your options are for playing it in 2024, such as the Fighting Collection. Ultimately, I just wanna talk about what I think is one of the most fascinating Capcom games of the 90’s and a truly hidden gem.
