Arc System Works has revealed that it will release the arcade version of Under Night In-Birth II Sys:Celes on March 27, 2025. People who prefer to play in arcades will soon be able to find the fighting game in amusement centers across Japan.
The arcade release will run under Sega’s ALL.Net P-ras MULTI Version 3 platform. As such, players will be able to use Aime cards to record their save data. The arcade cabinets will also contain ports for external headphones and gamepads.
One of the screenshots for the arcade version revealed that it will have 25 playable characters at launch. Besides the three new debutants on the console releases—Kaguya, Tsurugi, and Kuon—it will also include Uzuki. The latter is the game’s first post-launch character added via DLC in July 2024. However, that also means arcade players will not get immediate access to Ogre, the second DLC character who appeared more recently in consoles in February 2025. The season pass for the console releases also includes Izumi as its third and last extra character coming in August 2025.
The arcade version of Under Night In-Birth II Sys:Celes will appear on Thursday, March 27, 2025. The original fighting game is readily available worldwide on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
