Namco X Capcom is an action tactical role-playing video game developed by and featuring characters from games produced by companies Namco and Capcom. The game centres on two original characters created for it, Reiji Arisu and Xiaomu. The two of them work for a special unit called Shinra, which is tasked with investigating spirits and other otherworldly disturbances. The game is a hybrid of action and tactical role-playing games. Movement is done on a square grid with turns being determined by figuring out which character has the highest AP. On the player's turn, he or she can move his character into position and choose to attack an enemy.
