Chaos Wars is a Massive Multiplayer Crossover Strategy RPG released in 2008, featuring characters from designers Idea Factory, Aruze, Red Entertainment and Atlus. It is infamous for the ridiculously poor voice acting and localization.Should not be confused with Chaos War, a 2011 Marvel Comics Crisis Crossover.There are lots of characters to choose from, and they all range from a variety of games: Idea Factory Spectral Towernote Technically the first Spectral game, meaning the Spectral Force series and its children series should be under it, but Genre Shift and Sequel Displacement puts Force as the face of the Neverland games. Spectral Force Spectral Blade Generation of Chaos Spectral Souls Blazing Souls Steady × Study Rebirth Moon (also the game whose engine was modified for use in this game) Mars of Destruction Aruze Shadow Hearts Atlus Growlanser Red Entertainment Gungrave: Overdose Shinsengumi Gunrouden (a.k.a. Code of the Samurai) ASCII Media Works Dengeki Playstation (a gaming magazine)The story opens with three Ordinary High School Students—the sourpuss Hyōma, the hyperactive Shizuku, and the cowardly Hayatemaru. They agreed to ditch school one day to investigate a strange cave that is said to hold mystical power. The story goes that if one prays there, his/her wish will be granted. However, when they reach said cave, something bizarre happens and they are sucked into a parallel dimension: a world called "Endia" ("the end of all worlds"). Endia is composed of a ring of islands, and oddly, has a sun that never sets. Hyōma is separated from his friends and encounters a purple-haired girl named Rin Sunroad. Rin is a "Gate Master"—she can operate special terminals that allow the transport of goods and even people. She tells him that he is a "Knight" (a person who is usually pulled from another world). Hyōma finds his friends early enough and must now gather an army of fellow Knights, and take part in a race to find the Keys, which may be the vital items that allows everyone to return to their own worlds—or even new Knights to join Hyōma's and Rin's cause.Has a Spiritual Sequel of sorts in Cross Edge, another Massive Multiplayer Crossover involving Idea Factory with a Trapped in Another World premise. Zelos and Meu appear in both games.The character sheet has been recently overhauled, but still needs to be heavily worked on. Any contributions will be appreciated. | |

First Law of Resurrection | |
| Chaos Wars (Video Game) / int_134a82d5 | comment |
First Law of Resurrection: Downplayed. Basically, anyone who gets summoned to Endia gets cured of any ailment they suffered from in their world (such as Okita's Incurable Cough of Death). The most blatant example is Grave. In his home series, "Deadman" like Grave had to periodically undergo specially-prepared treatments that refreshed all the blood in their body in order to stay "alive" and mobile. In Endia, Grave no longer requires this, and still has all his powers (nor does he need to eat or sleep). | |

Defeat Means Friendship | |
| Chaos Wars (Video Game) / int_19769f50 | comment |
Defeat Means Friendship: Beating certain boss characters with a specific unit (sometimes the killing blow must have the unit in Realize mode) causes the boss character to join Hyōma's party after the fight is won. | |

Incurable Cough of Death: Sōji Okita has tuberculosis in his world, and will eventually die of it just like his real life counterpart. In Endia, however, he's perfectly healthy. (see above) | |

| Chaos Wars (Video Game) / int_36e63b81 | comment |
Rule of Cool: Your party can consist of an Ordinary High-School Student who can generate a Flaming Sword, a guy who can transform into an EldritchAbomination, an undead gunslinger who carries a coffin on his back and wields guns akimbo, a demon girl who uses a big-ass scythe, and the Shinsengumi. Tell me that's not awesome. | |

Super-Powered Evil Side | |
| Chaos Wars (Video Game) / int_3cb17a19 | comment |
While Hiro is not evil, she IS ruthless and without mercy (she outright tells Hyoma she will kill him if he becomes a burden or, worse, an obstacle), and in her own canon she has a Superpowered Evil Side that revels in wanton destruction and cold-blooded murder due to it representing her repressed demonic nature. The scythe is more fitting than it appears at first. | |

Sinister Scythe | |
| Chaos Wars (Video Game) / int_61b9028c | comment |
Sinister Scythe: Hiro's Realize weapon is a large scythe, although she's not evil at all—she's practically one of the first few party members you get. Scythes/sickles are also a weapon class. While Hiro is not evil, she IS ruthless and without mercy (she outright tells Hyoma she will kill him if he becomes a burden or, worse, an obstacle), and in her own canon she has a Superpowered Evil Side that revels in wanton destruction and cold-blooded murder due to it representing her repressed demonic nature.

Redemption Demotion: That boss character that had a ton of hit points and resilience? Joined your party? Well, the good thing is that you don't have to fight him or her anymore, but once on your side their incredible power is all but gone, as well as most of their hit points. | |

Spell My Name with an S | |
| Chaos Wars (Video Game) / int_89a17726 | comment |
Spell My Name With An S: Many Non-Original Generation characters, likely due to O3 Entertainment (the American localisation team) working from the original Japanese names rather than the pre-existing localised names. Most noticeable with Shadow Hearts characters: Uru might be better known to American gamers as Yuri. Likewise, Nicole is based off the original ニコルnote Nikoru, rather than the altered Nicolai. | |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: This and the English voice acting is what got the game most of its attention. The game Rebirth Moon was erroneously translated as "Reverse Moon". While リバース could be either "Rebirth" or "Reverse", this is a game that had a Latinised name visibly displayed on its logo and in the address of its official website. | |
