Samurai Shodown VI

Samurai Shodown VI

Other changes to the series included completely removing blocking from the air and the switching movement that allowed one player to quickly switch behind the other's back, as well as evade (Evade, Side-Step), where the movement virtually brings a semi-3D environment to the defense to use each sword more effectively. You can no longer recharge your own power meter. The off-screen delivery man has been completely removed from the game. The "CD combo" has been added, where a player can press the C and D keys together to trigger a strike that can be continued by a sequence of key presses. SNK also added a "suicide" move, where one's character gives up the round. The bonus here is that the one who commits suicide starts the next round with a full "POW" meter. Certain finishes also allow for a "Fatality" move along the lines of Mortal Kombat.
