Power Instinct (Series)

Power Instinct, released in Japan as Gōketsuji Ichizoku (豪血寺一族, "Gōketsuji Family"), is a fighting video game series created by Atlus.

The series is known for its absurdist humor. Unique to the series was the introduction of the transformation feature: several of the characters can change their appearance and fighting style by simply executing certain moves (usually a throwing move), though this has not been featured in every entry in the series. Other features include the ability for every character to perform a double jump, run, and attack while running.

Atlus gave the Power Instinct series to the company Noise Factory, however, the Noise Factory company went out of business as of March 31, 2017. There are seven games to the series.
