The traditional Power bar system in MUGEN (and other fighters) will exist in this game as well under the name of Haunted Power. The bar charges up by attacking or receiving damage, each time the bar has filled, you get another Possession Level up to a maximum Level of 3. But Possession level does not only allow the player to use Super Techniques, after level 2 there is an increase in general character abilities as well (such as speed, strength), and before level 1, the special attacks available are weaker, some not even available from the start.

Additionally, certain characters have the ability to pump Haunted power into normal special attacks to turn them into more powerful versions of themselves. (Similar to EX Attacks in Streetfighter Alpha or similar series)

Super Techniques usually take up one or more power bars. This brings in strategy for the players, as one has to think twice whether he wants to give away the status boni of a higher Possession level away for the singular power of a Super technique.
