Bloody Roar

Bloody Roar (ブラッディロア, Buraddi Roa) is a series of 3D fighting games developed by Eighting (initially as Raizing) and primarily published by Hudson Soft, centering on characters known as "zoanthropes" who possess the ability to transform into anthropomorphic beasts during combat to unleash enhanced attacks and abilities. The franchise began with the original Bloody Roar (known as Beastorizer in arcades), released in Japanese arcades in 1997 and subsequently ported to the PlayStation. Hudson Soft's merger into Konami in 2012 transferred ownership of the intellectual property to the latter.
