Power Stone 2 is a multiplayer fighting game that built on the innovative gameplay introduced by its predecessor. A la Super Smash Bros. Melee (SSBM), Power Stone 2 allows the player to choose between multiple characters and use the environment around them. However, while SSBM relies on a 2D point of view, Power Stone takes it a step further and makes it 3D. Note that Power Stone came first, and one could argue that the formula worked better.
Power Stone 2 originated as an arcade game, like many others on the Dreamcast. The Dreamcast served as a testing ground for successful arcade games. Despite relative popularity, Power Stone 1 and 2 would remain the only ones in the series.
