Gameplay
Edit
The game is a sequel to the 2002 video game, Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee. The game plays in the style of a 3-D fighting game. You take on the role of one of 23 monsters from the Godzilla series, and battle other monsters in an epic, city destroying fashion. Now with the upgraded Clover Engine 3.0, the monsters look realistic and the buildings, crumble, fall apart, and collapse like never before. Players can actually lift small buildings off the ground and throw them at other monsters.
Each monster has its own breath weapon. Godzilla for example, has his trademark atomic breath, while King Ghidorah can shoot lightning from all 3 of his heads. The game plays as a fighting game yet works differently than the traditional one-on-one structured rounds. Instead, fights can include up to 4 players in a four-way simultaneous fighting structure. The camera is in third person perspective, allowing the player to focus solely on their character. Also unlike most fighting games, players are allowed to roam freely within the large city area, which allows climbing and jumping from buildings and cliffs.
Monsters can use the environment to deal out damage to their foes by making weapons of various objects found within the city, such as large pieces of rubble from destroyed buildings and some vehicles as projectiles, and smokestacks from factories as clubs, and radio antennae as spears to impale enemies, temporarily stunning them. Buildings can also be used as cover to protect yourself from breath attacks. Tall buildings that are damaged can topple over and crush enemies, inflicting a lot of damage to the monster that got crushed. Initially, you only start off with 2 monsters: Godzilla 2000 and Anguirus. But you can earn "G-Points" (short for Godzilla-Points), which you can use to unlock more monsters to play as.

Sequel
Edit
When asked if Clover Entertainment would do a sequel to the game, Clover said, "It's too soon to think about doing a sequel. However, if we do one, I don't think it'll be the same thing. Instead, I was thinking doing the first open-world Godzilla game. But it's too early to go in depth with that now. Just wait and see how THIS game does first, then wait a while, and we'll talk about it."
On the premiere of this game during an interview with Clover, he announced that the first open-world Godzilla game would go in development later during next week. It will share elements of Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, GTA IV, and War of the Monsters.
The game will soon start production on Tuesday, October 23rd.
