Predator Style

Predator Style is a new feature to be introduced in God Eater Resurrection.

The standard Control Unit feature has been completely removed. In its place, new devour options have been added. In addition to the standard (charge) and combo devours, there are now "quick," "step," and "air" devour possibilities.

Additionally, individual control units can be equipped to each of these devour options, each carrying abilities covering various functionality. Examples of these ability types include Attack (攻撃), containing abilities such as those that boost attack power or bullet effectiveness; Defense (防御), containing abilities such as those that boost defensive power or element resistance; Auxiliary (補助), containing abilities such as those that boost Oracle intake or charge speed; and Special (特殊), containing abilities such as those that boost allies' stats.

These abilities can be activated for the duration of the current Burst gauge (either gained through devouring or by devouring during an already-active burst) by executing the corresponding devour option. Executing a Charge devour, for example, will activate the ability tied to the Charge devour option. Which abilities are currently active are denoted by colored bars above the player's Burst gauge: red for Charge, white for Quick, yellow for Combo, green for Step, and blue for Air.

As seen in the gifs below, the combo devour has been modified into a wide, sweeping blade attack that can easily devour multiple targets at once. There is also a devour type that transforms the player's God Arc into a jet thruster assembly, allowing for "hit and run" style devouring wherein the player can devour and immediately propel themselves away. Additionally, the standard charge devour has been modified into the three-pronged version seen below.
