Descpription:
The first in the series, fully titled Darkstalkers:
The Night Warriors or Vampire: The Night Warriors in Japan and
released in 1994, features ten playable characters:
Demitri Maximoff
Jon Talbain
Victor von Gerdenheim
Lord Raptor
Morrigan Aensland
Anakaris
Felicia
Oboro Bishamon
Rikuo
Sasquatch
and two non-playable boss characters (Huitzil and Pyron)
as the final opponents in the single-player mode.
The game features the same gameplay system Capcom developed
for the Street Fighter II series, but with several new gameplay
features such as Air Blocking, Crouch Walking and Chain Combos.
The game featured a Special meter similar to the "Super Combo
gauge" in Super Street Fighter II Turbo, which the player could
fill up to perform a super powered special attack.
Unlike the Super Combo gauge in Super Turbo, the Special in Darkstalkers
gradually drains unless the player performs their super move,
preventing players from preserving their super moves for later use.
