Rivals
Zetterburn, a son of the ruling family of the Firelands, is an experienced and hardened warrior. In battle, Zetterburn uses no weapons except for his razor-sharp claws and ability to control flame.
- BURN DAMAGE - Zetterburn's special attacks can set opponents on fire, causing them additional damage over time.
- WILD FIRE - Zetterburn's Down Special places flames on the stage. These flames stay for a period of time, burning any opponents who come in contact with them.
- FIRE AMP - When an opponent is burning, Zetterburn's Strong Attacks can absorb the flames and launch the burned enemy twice as far, making for an effective killing blow.
Orcane is a playful trickster, notorious for escaping even the most precarious of situations. He can transform into water and confuse enemies with a spray of bubbles.
- PUDDLE TELEPORTATION - Orcane creates a puddle with his Neutral Special or Down Special. He can then teleport to his puddle using his Up Special as a powerful vertical blow or an effective recovery when launched off the stage.
- BUBBLE EVAPORATION - Orcane can turn his puddle into a pillar of bubbles with his Down Special to trap enemies above the puddle.
- WATER AMP - When standing on top of his puddle, Orcane can consume the water underneath him to perform powerful Strong Attacks with far greater range and knockback.
The youngest trainee in the history of the Air Academy, Wrastor has never lived by anyone's rules but his own. Currently an Aerial Ace for the Air Armada, Wrastor is wrecking havoc among the Armada's enemies and generals alike.
- WINGED FLIGHT - Wrastor can jump 4 times, making him incredible at controlling the air and recovering from the toughest falls even when things look grim.
- WIND CURRENT - Wrastor can create a Wind Current with his Forward Special, allowing him to move faster within it and chase his targets more effectively.
- AERIAL ACE - Wrastor performs his charged Strong Attacks in the air instead of on the ground, a first for this genre.
Kragg is a defender of the colossal Aetherian Forest. Deliberate and loyal, he is one of the infamous Wall Runners who patrol the Rock Wall. Unlike other Wall Runners, Kragg has the legendary ability to control the earth with his will.
- ROCK HURL - Kragg can pull a rock out of the ground and hurl it at opponents. After it leaves his hands, the rock becomes a solid piece of stage that either Kragg or other players can break.
- DEFENSE BALL - Kragg can curl into a ball and roll toward enemies. Although he can be damaged while in ball form, he cannot be knocked away.
- EARTH PILLAR - Kragg can summon a pillar of earth to his feet regardless of where he is. If Kragg is about to fall to his death, this move can quickly turn his situation around.
Forsburn is the disgraced, eldest son of the Firelands' ruling family. After being condemned by the Fire Council and his own brother, Forsburn found refuge in a group of outsiders who had rejected the flame and mastered the way of smoke.
- SMOKE SCREEN - Forsburn can use his Neutral Special to obscure the battlefield allowing Forsburn to remain hidden inside a cloud of smoke.
- DECOY - Through his Forward Special, Forsburn can create a smoke facsimile of himself that can attack opponents. The illusory Forsburn breaks into smoke after being hit by a single attack.
- CONSUME/COMBUST - By using his Down Special, Forsburn can consume his smoke clouds back into his body. After consuming three clouds, Forsburn is charged up and can use Down Special again to combust: knocking opponents away at high speed.
Maypul is the self-appointed Guardian of the Aetherian Forest. She commands fearful respect throughout the forest for her unhesitating vigilantism. She uses her agility to trap any unknown intruders before they even realize she is there.
- WATCHER'S MARK - Maypul can use her Seeds or her Watcher's Dash to mark opponents, making them susceptible to her following attacks.
- WRAPPED UP - After marking her targets, Maypul can use her Strong Attacks or her trusty Plant to wrap marked opponents in place allowing her to follow up with another attack.
- SLING SHOT - Maypul can use her vines to sling toward marked opponents, allowing her to elude attacks and quickly close distances.
Absa is a famed engineer and martialist of the Elders of the Air Alliance. Despite the laws of the Elders, Absa secretly developed storm techniques in the caves of the Archai mountains.
- CLOUD CONTROL - Absa can place a cloud using her Neutral or Forward Special. This cloud hangs in the air until Absa bursts it by tapping her Neutral Special and knocking enemies away.
- THUNDER BOLT - Absa can charge her Neutral Special to create a powerful lightning blast that connects her to her cloud. All opponents caught between the two will be knocked away at high speeds.
- CONDENSED STORM - Absa focuses the power of a lightning bolt to the tip of her hoof. If she can line up one of her aerial kicks perfectly, she unleashes great power.
Etalus is a legendary warrior in his native land. He is one of the last surviving members of the Harbor Guard and uses the power of ice to augment his massive strength.
- HOME ICE ADVANTAGE: Etalus can use his Forward Special or Forward Tilt to freeze the ground beneath him in order to slide across on the icy surface.
- ARMORED UP: When standing on ice, Etalus can use his Neutral Special to absorb the ice and create ice armor around his body.
- AVALANCHE: Etalus can use his Down Special to shatter all nearby ice, instantly freezing any enemies who are standing on it.
Ranno was known as be a feared martial artist who trained under wise monks. But now he prefers to peacefully protect his swampy homeland. When he has no other option, you can see glimpses of his rapid and deliberate strikes.
- POISON STACKS - Ranno’s Specials Strong Attacks and Jab Combo apply up to four poisonous stacks on his opponents. These stacks damage opponents when they attack and can be removed by hitting Ranno.
- TOXIC TRAP - Ranno’s Neutral Special and Down Special can place his opponents in a Toxic Bubble Trap that makes it easier for Ranno to combo. The length of time in the trap depends on the number of Poison Stacks on the opponent.
- POISON SPIN - Ranno’s recovery onto stage has three options. He begins it with a Poison Lunge that is quick and knocks opponents away. After the lunge he can quickly Poison Kick down onto the stage with another quick strike. Or he can use the Posion Spin to fire out an array of Posion Darts in many directions.
Clairen is a seasoned warrior from a distant future where the heroes of flame vanish and never return. After being defeated by a tyrannical and ever-living emperor, she travels back in time in order to defeat him.
- IONIZED TIP - Unlike the other soldiers from the future, Clairen manipulates her blade to be two-toned. The end of Clairen's sword is super-charged, allowing her to stun enemies who are hit precisely with the tip.
- PLASMA ECHO - Clairen dashes forward with her Side Special to quickly escape. The deadly plasma resonance left behind can damage enemies and even KO opponents with its sweet spot.
- ENERGY FIELD - Performing a Down Special right before an attack hits Clairen will trigger her energy field. This field damages and pushes other Rivals away while nullifying all projectiles that try to enter it.
Sylvanos is the heart of the Aetherian Forest. A rageful deity, Sylvanos has only a single goal - to expand the forest over all of Aether. Unfortunately, the great Rock Wall traps the spirit as he patrols the forest’s floor. Sylvanos leads the plant life in the forest looking for ways to expand his dominance.
- UNTAMED GROWTH - Sylvanos spreads grass as he runs around. The grass leaves if Sylvanos is away from it for too long. Sylvanos can use Down Special to call Plants Rise and damage any opponents standing on grass.
- SEED SHOT - Sylvanos’ Neutral Special fires a deadly seed into the air. If it hits an opponent it will lock them in place, but if it reaches the ground then it will plant a flower that maintains a permanent fixture of grass on that ground or platform until it is destroyed.
- BURROW - Sylvanos can dig into solid ground and reappear by digging out from a different position. If he digs under grass he can pop out with a strong bite attack to KO enemies off the top of the screen.
Elliana is a snake from the burrows in the Eastern Wastelands who has always dreamt of flying. After her dreams of joining the Air Armada were crushed by an intolerant captain, she sought the aid of Ayala, a brilliant engineer. Together they built a steam-powered flying machine and with it, Elliana now plans to destroy the armada that rejected her.
- OVERHEAT - Elliana’s ship heats up when she uses specials or her unique double jump that allows her to hover. Once overheated she can no longer use her specials or hover, becoming more vulnerable to her enemies.
- LETTING OFF STEAM - Elliana can perform Strong Attacks to expel steam away from her ship, lowering her Overheat bar. The steam can also catch opponents or be blown away by attacks. When she is overheated, her strong attacks let off a powerful explosion instead that can KO opponents.
- ABANDON SHIP - Elliana can use her Up Special to abandon ship even when overheated. She launches herself high into the air and her ship explodes. Be careful, as she is very vulnerable while outside of her ship and she must rebuild it upon landing on the ground.
Ori and Sein are from the hit indie game Ori and the Blind Forest and they bring their skills to the test in Rivals of Aether. While Ori works to Bash, Stomp and Glide his way to victory, Sein can use the Spirit Flame or the Charged Flame to put enemies between a rock and a hard place.
- SPIRIT FLAME – Sein follows Ori around the battlefield. Ori can tap Neutral Special to have Sein quickly fire a Spirit Flame from wherever Sein is. Ori can hold Neutral Special to have Sein use the Charged Flame.
- BASH – Ori can use Down Special to Bash nearly anything in Rivals of Aether – from characters to projectiles to rocks and plants. Ori can also move around the stage by bashing the Light Grenade that is thrown by using Forward Special.
- TAG TEAM – When Ori and Sein are close enough, Ori can use Strong Attacks to initiate tag team combos. These Strong Attacks have more powerful properties as Sein assists Ori for a more devastating blow.
Shovel Knight has learned a lot during Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove and he brings those skills with him to Rivals of Aether. Shovel Knight swings, digs and shovel drops his way through the Rivals roster. He does it all while collecting treasure which he can use to purchase upgrades to give him the upper hand on the battlefield.
- TREASURE HUNTER – Shovel Knight’s attacks knock coins and gems out of his opponents. He can collect these to increase his treasure. By taunting, he summons Chester and can use his treasure to purchase either Relics or Armors to improve his fighting ability.
- SHOVEL DROP – Shovel Knight’s signature ability is his Down Air in Rivals of Aether. With this attack he can strike his opponents from above and bounce off their heads. Hold the attack button to keep the Shovel beneath him. He can also bounce off objects and projectiles!
- EXPERT FISHERMAN – Shovel Knight’s down special is the Fishing Rod. Use it off the side of the stage to fish up some treasure. Time it correctly and fish up a Treasure Rock, but time it perfectly and get a Golden Fish.

I spent 30 minutes playing 52 broly pickup at 2 AM with my friend. Rivals of Aether 1 is the only game in which that sentence can make any remote sense.
You can basically put gumball and darwin up against sans undertale. 10/10
Could've sworn I had reviewed this ages ago, but oops! Rivals is an incredible and unique platform fighter with a great cast of characters and a few fun modes aside from the core competitive 1v1 versus. This isn't my most played game ever but it has given me more memorable moments than many others
Recommended if you like fighting games like street fighter, but would also recommend just remote playing if you have friends but they don't have enough for the game (to make it more fun)
Genuinely the best platform fighter I've ever played. Smash used to be my main game but then this took over with amazing mechanics, beautiful graphics, fun base characters, and an astounding workshop that adds hours and hours of content. Easily a top favorite game and one I'll be playing for a long long while.
Extremely good, the character selection is basicly endless because of the amasing community characters. ( gamblecore guy is my favorite haha) The controls are fluid and simple, and the tutorial is a nice touch for new players instead of just being trown into the game with no context on the cotrols. all in all, i love this game and you should 100% buy it!
haters would say its smash bros, players would say its smash bros, With mods :)
the amount of mods you can add to the game is insane and they have so much verity
totally recomended
It won't let you play on a table though but it's a good game and the mode's for it is cool/funny the have are free and it have almost everyone in it them
inspiring. this game is so fun, honestly. the story mode is nice, the characters are cool, and don't even get me started on the workshop characters. 10/10, fully reccommend.
Absolutely incredible game. Characters are fun to mess around with, the story mode was fun, the online works well, and the workshop, oh GOD the workshop-
Marvelous fighting game, one that'll never be forgotten.
best game ever! though if your name is cone and you play peter and weegee and eggman i think i dont wanr to play! but if you are crimson or rowdy lets partayyyyyy!
bro this game is fire, the mod-ability, the art, the mechanics, they are all masterpieces what are you doing reading this, just put the funds in the purchase
workshop peter griffin vs skibidi toilet on the windows 10 desktop
the perfect platform fighter imo. it honestly might be neck and neck with smash ultimate for me as far as my enjoyment of it goes. love the artstyle, love the schmovement, and love the endless potential of workshop characters. hope this game continues to get support even if the sequel is out.
This game finally answers the age old question of 'what happens if three geese gang up on Mario in a McDonalds parking lot?'
With all of the workshop content and customization, it is easy to see why Rivals of Aether may be the most popular Indie fighting game of all time.
The only game where you can watch Donald Trump beat up Goku from Dragonball Z and Gojo From jjk
10/10, would build a wall again.
If you don't feel like modding Super Smash Bros., this game is PERFECT. Any character you can think of, you can play as in this awesome fighting game. Definitely recommend.
Every time i play the game crashes, sometimes so fast it crashes while i am on the character select screen.
Great game, the workshop characters are fun
i recomend characters created by muno,
fun game with custom mods and good game to play with friends!!!
ya i like it.
Innovates on the platfighter genre, bringing much needed new ideas to the table while questioning existing genre norms to truely create the best platfighter on the market.
Incredibly fast paced and interactive, tons of personality and player expression.
I can only hope other platfighters learn the lessons this game has trailblazed
10/10 would ruin my life for this game again
very fun and entertaining hard to master though no soos character as well :(
amazing basically just smash but with any character
Fun Game with great mods controls on keyboard take a bit to learn and use but otherwise 10/10
great game, good combination of casual play (w/ awesome easily added steam workshop characters) and advanced tech for competitive fighters! i love it
I can make ronald mcdonald fight peter griffin, a suitcase and a minecraft dirt block actual peak game
is veryy fun bro you can download smash bros characters to have a smash type roster or download other memes/characters or maps can think of
great f-ing game if you like smash bros or other platform fighter
this game is so much fun because you can play as almost anyone. i would recommend it to others
it's a great game even without delving into the workshop characters, and a fantastic game with them included
great game for smash players good characters and moves, gameplay is smooth and feels great. I highly suggest you get this game if you enjoy fighting games.
Adding mods and being able to use the workshop for this is the reason why i buyed it
Amazing game.
this game is better than fraymakers but they try hard so if you don't like the game so what who cares if you like the like me then just have fun . .

Mx mod is SUPER OP. Anyway, good game.
great game, the mods are what really bring this game to life
Rivals of Aether is an absolute gem in the platform fighter genre that has kept me hooked for hours! The unique mechanics and charming pixel art style create an engaging experience, while the diverse cast of characters ensures no two battles feel the same. What really blew me away is the ability to add custom characters—it's so much fun to dive into the community creations and even try my hand at making my own! The modding tools are user-friendly, and it's amazing to see the creativity that players bring to the game. Whether you're playing competitively or just having a blast with friends, the endless possibilities with custom characters give Rivals of Aether incredible replay value. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and creative fighting game!
I only download this game for mod. the only game where i can see goku vs mario vs ronald vs freddy at same time
10/10
outstanding art, controls, characters, and skill ceiling/floor.
There is no other game where you can have Hatsune Miku, Skibbiti Toilet, Sans, and Master Chief all fight each other at the same time.
If you play couch coop with friends and you take the time to find the custom characters that you and your friends like, this is the 10/10 best multiplayer experience.
This is a fun game with interesting characters on it's own. BUT the reason it is amazing is because of the workshop where people can create and download custom characters.
This game is so well made and as a side note to make your own characters and play as characters from popular fandoms and made up gimmiks and so much more this game is great
Way better than Smash Brothers, with a roster ever more expansive by the DAY. I GREATLY recommend this game both to any interested players and people sick and tired of Smash's Online alike.
I can play as Knuckles against Freddy, Engineer and Sou Frisk. Finally my very specific fan fiction is real.
It is the best Pixel Modding Fighting game there is. HIghly recomend Wii Smash Bros Modders
gotta love how batshit insane the workshop of this game is, you can have a matchup like a wii with a gun vs reckless safety notice man, or an office chair vs a chesspiece, kind of like a platform fighter MUGEN
This is an amazing game its almost like smash bros. but a little better due to the workshop, with the workshop you can create your own stages or characters or you can use ones that others have created, people even created some bosses which is what I really like about this because you get a challenge fighting the boss which is very fun.
Great game, to bad the tutorial is to hard.
the unlimited potential of the workshop function makes this game indefinitely creative and fun to fight in
I do have lots of fun with this game, and enjoy playing with my friends, but at the end of the day, I'm mostly jut here for the workshop content, so I probably won't be buying the sequel.
TLDR: I like this game, but only for the community content.
