In conventional delay-based online matches, input delays and lags occur depending on players\u2019 location and the condition of their internet connection. Rollback netcode is an attempt to curtail these issues by treating both players\u2019 inputs as local and predicting the opponent\u2019s next move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Steam, rollback netcode is used by fighting games such as <em>MELTY BLOOD: TYPE LUMINA<\/em> and <em>THE KING OF FIGHTERS 2002 UNLIMITED MATCH<\/em>. Arc System Works\u2019 <em>GUILTY GEAR XX ACCENT CORE PLUS R<\/em> (Steam version) and GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE- officially supported rollback netcode in December 2020 and in June 2021 respectively. It\u2019s a part of the company\u2019s effort to make the online experience better for players, and it seems like <em>BBCF<\/em> and <em>BBTAG<\/em> are following suit.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">You all asked for it and here it is!<br>We are proud to announce Rollback Netcode for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BlazBlueCentralfiction?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#BlazBlueCentralfiction<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BlazBlueCrossTagBattle?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#BlazBlueCrossTagBattle<\/a> ! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CEO2021?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#CEO2021<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jA9bBnRghH\">pic.twitter.com\/jA9bBnRghH<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Arc System Works America (@ArcSystemWorksU) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ArcSystemWorksU\/status\/1467701564689297416?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 6, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><em>BBCF<\/em> and<em> BBTAG<\/em> are 2D fighting games developed by Arc System Works. <em>BBCF<\/em> serves as the ending to the Azure Saga and <em>BBTAG<\/em> is a crossover game that features characters from 4 different series: <em>BlazBlue<\/em>, <em>Persona<\/em>, <em>Under Night In-Birth<\/em>, and <em>RWBY<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Incidentally, the BlazBlue series will go on sale from December 6, 10:00 a.m. to December 13, 9:59 a.m. PST (December 7, 3:00 a.m. to December 14, 2:59 a.m. JST).
