Arc System Works have been in the business of delivering stylish and satisfying fighting games for quite a while now. There’re a lot of ingredients in that mix, but one that shouldn’t be overlooked is the music. Be they character themes or even just the character select menu, these songs often hit just as hard as the matches on screen.
