One interesting tidbit with this announcement was the live crowd. While the announcement itself got a massive pop from those sitting in front of the main stage, an equally loud cheer came pon the reveal of rollback netcode.

Under Night In-Birth, while loved, had issues when it came with online matchmaking. With the sequel, hopes are high that this will be fixed. Rollback is no guarantee o of quality, but it's a step in the right direction.

One fun final note was the reveal that a playable version of the game was playable at the Arc Systems Work booth, which caused multiple attendees to stand up and start running to the other side of the Mandalay Bay convention hall. Fun stuff.

A lot of people might see the name and walk away, but it's true that Under Night has been fantastic over the years. With a sequel coming and new netcode, maybe this is the time to jump in and give it a go!
