The primary risks involve potential for competitive toxicity in online play and some mild suggestive themes in character designs and dialogue. While there are no overt monetization pressures, the competitive nature could lead to social comparison. Content risks include fantasy violence typical of the fighting game genre, but it is not gratuitous.
