The Ultimate Battle Begins in TEPPEN’s “Defying the Light” Starting Today

The stage is set for the final battle against the Goddess Myria

TOKYO, Japan – March 1, 2022 – Learn the ultimate fate of the Goddess in “Defying the Light,” the climax of a three-part trilogy launching in TEPPEN today! The War of the Goddess rages on in the Land of Illusion where the Heroes of TEPPEN face their final showdown against the Goddess Myria. Play through this epic conflict with beloved characters from the Breath of Fire, Street Fighter, Mega Man series, and more.

The Final Confrontation
After the Three Sages revealed the location of the Land of Illusion, our heroes embarked on a journey to take the fight to Myria herself. Having crossed through the Storm of Death and Desert of Death and fended off her faithful soldiers, the Resistance Army will face the wicked Myria in the deciding fight between the will of the people and the Goddess.

A New Ally
The Resistance also attempt to save the souls that were sent to the digital system, “Land of Light” by Myria’s followers. However, the Heroes are aided by RiCO from Mega Man X DiVE, a glitch-like figure that emerged from the “Land of Light.” With the help of RiCo, Felyne from Monster Hunter liberates the souls trapped in the Land of Light as the battle with the Goddess rages on.

A New Ability
Our heroes are sure to take a few hits, but the new ability keeps them in the game. This ability activates when a Hero’s Life falls below a certain value, triggering different effects.

New Cards
New heroes step forward to join the fray! The Green Card ‘Legendary Beast Alatreon,’ the Purple Card ‘Hsien-Ko,’ and the Red Card ‘Charlie’ enter the resistance against Myria. But beware—the dastardly Black Card ‘Proto Angelo’ is now hunting for wounded heroes to ensure their doom! Here is a preview of Legendary Beat Alatreon:

• Type: Unit
• Tribe: Monster
• MP: 8
• Attack: 2
• HP: 8
• Effects:
