* FoeTossingCharge: Pressing L3 while standing still and not locked-on will perform a Blast Drive -- your character starts running forward incredibly quickly, and if they collide with a Master or Servant, they'll be sent flying.

* MagiBabble: A ''lot'' of terminology related to the series' magic system, including aspects of it that were introduced in this game, gets thrown around in dialogue.

* CycleOfHurting: While Masters have plenty of ways to prevent combos from spiraling out of control, Servants have no such luck. This allows for "Servant Loops" -- long, elaborate, looping combos that can kill them from full health. The only real restriction is the fact that combos on Servants are also affected by the infinite prevention system.

''Guilty Gear 2 -Overture-'' is the fourth main installment in the ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'' series. It was released for the UsefulNotes/Xbox360 on November 29, 2007 in Japan, October 7, 2008 in North America, and September 25, 2009 in Europe. It would eventually be released on UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} on March 31, 2016.

Unlike previous games in the series, which were 2D 1-on-1 fighting games, ''Overture'' is a 3D HackAndSlash game with MultiplayerOnlineBattleArena elements.

!!This work shows examples of:
* ComboBreaker:
** Pressing R3 will perform a Cyclone Blast. It costs 35% of your Tension, and sends all opponents in the blast radius flying away. It's also possible to counter a Cyclone Blast with your own, which can be repeated until both sides run out of Tension.
** The game also has an infinite prevention system of sorts -- combos that consist of too many of the same string can be teched out of.
* LagCancel: Pressing L3 while attacking will perform a Modern Cancel, canceling the attack at the cost of 20% of your Tension bar. Unlike Roman Cancels, they can't be used if the attack whiffs, making them strictly a combo or pressure tool.
* SecretCharacter: Ky becomes playable after completing the Campaign once on any difficulty.
* VideoGame3DLeap: This is the first game in the series to utilize 3D graphics.
