Losing his memories on an attack against Jin Kazama’s forces, Lars goes on a journey to learn his identity so that he will be able to recover the subject of his mission.
The game received generally positive reviews, especially the PSP version, which got an 82.60% from GameRankings and 82/100 from Metacritic. Sales from the video game have been positive.
