Also, when used under specific conditions, if the blast hits the adversary, the tension gauge is filled to its maximum capacity immediately. It allows the player to break combinations and super moves in the middle of the opponent's offensive. By pressing buttons in combination, the player character jump and unleash a blast of energy-a Psyche Burst.
Guilty Gear X2 adds a new feature to the series: a burst gauge, which is filled as the player causes or receives damage. Once a character's gauge is filled super moves called Overdrive Attacks, or a variety of special techniques-"Instant Kill", "Faultless Defense," "Dead Angle Attacks" or "Roman Cancels"-can be performed. However, when a character moves backwards or uses defensive moves often, its tension gauge is reduced. When a character causes damage or moves toward its adversary, a tension gauge charges. Additional buttons allow the player to perform taunts, and throw enemies in the air. The fighting system works around a four attack button configuration, consisting of punch, kick, slash, and heavy slash.
