Trivia[]
- The titles translated from German as "Flash Fight" and "Axis Edition".
- As the storyline takes place in each stages based on the locations per row normally: Shanghai (East China); Fuji, Shizuoka (Japan); Hong Kong City; Tsangpo Canyon, Tibet (West China). However, there are two cases for Chinese Border characters:
- Arcade battles between Chinese Border characters from each same countries: Facing between two Chinese characters in a Chinese stage only occur in mid boss fight/Stage 4 only; Facing between two Hong Kong characters in an Hong Kong stage only occurs in Stage 1.
- Hong Kong characters does not have a mid-boss fight against outside Tibet.
- In Arcade Mode, fighting both versions of Mycale in a same stage which starts from fighting her "base" form in Round 1 is inspired from a Tekken 3 boss fight against both forms of Ogre. Adler can be count as this, but the player's Round 1 opponent starts from Elektrosoldat. However, unlike Adler, who can only fight Elektrosoldat in the next Round instead of himself, both versions of Mycale cannot be fought against each other, due to story lore progressing.
