Virtually nothing is known of these beings except that they savor the carnage and clamor of battle. As such, they have stocked the arena with the greatest warriors of all time. As a gladiator in the Arena Eternal, you must not only survive, but also win each and every battle against ever more powerful opponents. [. . . ] Teleporters: A teleporter is similar to a gate, allowing gladiators to instantly travel from one point in the arena to another. You can't see where a teleporter leads, however, until you step into it. Doors: Doors in the arena come in many shapes and sizes. A standard door will open if it's shot. Triggers: Triggers often take the form of a button or pressure plate. Some triggers activate when touched, others must be fired on. Fog of Death: These swirling crimson vapors are highly caustic and faintly radioactive. They dissolve flesh and will quickly kill any gladiator, regardless of armor or other protection. Voids: Falling off certain platforms will cause you to plummet to your death. Other locations contain Tubes that will teleport you to a safer place. To find out which places are safe, try not to learn the hard way.

You'll have an edge over your opponents here, making it almost impossible to get yourself really fragged. Hurt Me!: When you're ready to go into combat with tough opponents, move on to this level. You and your opponents will be on even ground here, so they're more than able to frag you when you get careless or cocky. Hardcore: If you're ready for the big leagues, this is the level for you. From start to finish, even a hardened gladiator will be fighting for his life here. Nightmare!: If you're really looking for punishment, the Nightmare level will hand it out in spades. You probably won't live long on this level, but you'll go out in blaze of glory. 19 Work your way through the tiers to become the ultimate fragmaster Select one of five difficulty levels, depending on how much abuse you're in the mood for. When you select the Mulitplayer Option from the Mode Select Screen, the first thing you need to do is specify which users get to use which Dreamcast devices. Since you can plug up to four devices into your Dreamcast, it is very straightforward to figure out how to play with four players because each user will have their own input device. [. . . ] This is useful for sniper fire, but leaves you vulnerable to anyone close who might sneak up on you.
