You can choose from the story mode, team battle mode, or versus battle mode. In the story mode, you control a team of five characters in the Underworld tournament. Before each battle, you can choose which character to use and how much power and spirit he has in reserve. There are two bonus games during the tournament that allow you to increase the amount of power and spirit available.

The team battle mode allows you to choose five characters from any of the characters in the game. Your team will then face a computer or second player controlled team of five players to see who is the best team.

After playing the game a few times, you can pick up on the right character and strategy to beat each opponent. The order of the tournament opponents never changes, so the only replay value comes from trying to figure out how to do each character's special moves.

After pressing any button at the intro. screen, you will be presented with four choices. From playing the game, the choices are set up in this manner:

  • Story Mode
  • Team Battle Mode
  • Versus Battle Mode
  • Options
