Evaluation
Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm launched on Steam on July 7, 2015. After launch, the developer shipped two post-release patches: a feature update on February 16, 2016 (adding campaign backer color schemes, display improvements, and matchmaking optimizations), and a minor network tuning update on March 14, 2016. No further patches, content updates, or developer communications followed from the game's developer after that date.
On June 15, 2022, Nyu Media — the publisher — announced it was closing down. Their closure post explicitly stated that Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm would remain on sale on Steam, with publishing responsibilities transferring to the original developer, PDW HOTAPEN / Circle Edge Corp. This confirms the game remains available and is not being delisted, but there has been no indication of any new content or updates planned.
All four DLC items (Voice Packs, Digital Art Pack, Original Soundtrack, and the Complete Set bundle) were all released on launch day, July 7, 2015, and no further DLC has been announced or listed since. The store description mentions GGPO as an "upcoming update," but this note predates the 2016 patches and the game has received no updates since March 2016 — suggesting GGPO was either quietly dropped or the description was never updated. There are no outstanding content commitments, no announced future updates, and no sustained post-launch content cadence. The game launched as a complete fighting game and has received only minor maintenance-level updates since release.

About this game
Story
On Dec 25th 1925, a Japanese nationalist revolutionary group staged a coup d’etat. The revolutionaries acted swiftly, suppressing the prime minister, police, major corporations, and newspapers. Struggling to react, the old government faction sent the order to a secret information organization ‘Igasei’ to initiate an assassination program called ‘Yatagarasu’ and eliminate the leaders of the coup d’etat.
Overview
Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm is an original, traditional-style 2D fighting game with 11 playable characters that takes heavy inspiration from Street Fighter III, focusing on delivering solid game play and high quality production values.
The control mechanics are simple and readily accessible to anyone, but gameplay is based around reading your opponent, parrying and countering, and is deep enough to provide an enjoyable challenge for even seasoned fighting game veterans.
Dynamic Commentary
Yatagarasu AoC features a unique commentary system which provides tournament-style real-time commentary based on developments in the match. Both Japanese and English dynamic commentaries (audio and subtitles) are available and providing the English commentary are veteran commentators Jchensor, UltraDavid, and Maximilian.
Other Features
Other features include online play with rank matches, lobby matches, online leaderboards, tournament play, Twitter integration, a fully-featured training mode, and GGPO to follow in an upcoming update.
