List of Fighting Royale 2 pre-release and unused content/Regional Differences

Like the first installment, there are quite a few regional differences. However, this time they're only aesthetic, probably for Wi-Fi compatibility in-between versions.

Sub-page

 * Trophy Descriptions

Title Screen

 * In Japan and Korea, the game is called "Gingo Animation All-Stars! Ikari no Tatakai Rowaiyaru XL" and "Gingo Animation All Star! Battle Royale of Fury XL" respectively, and the logo's title is arranged differently, with a big, stylistic "XL" in the back right of the series' logo.
 * The text in the background of the Japanese and Korean title screens says "BATTLE ROYALE". In non-Asian versions, it says "FIGHTING ROYALE."
 * The copyright year in the Korean version is changed from "2008" to "2008-2009", due to it releasing a year after its American release there.

Character Names

 * Cookie is named Chestnut, its Japanese name, in the Japanese and Korean versions.
 * Similarly, The Collector is named The Emperor in Japanese and The Nemesis in Korean, respectively.
 * Chrysocolla Reed goes by "C.Reed" in the Japanese and Korean versions.
 * Classic Gabriel was known as "Young Gabriel" in the Japanese release. The announcement remains the same though.

Stage Names
Names for stages in the North American version are in all caps. In the European version, they're more grammar-friendly.

Challenges
Some of the challenge windows in the North American version cannot be broken via Golden Hammers (notably those opened by completing Boss Battles). The European version allows all windows to be smashed that way, despite the instructions claiming otherwise.

Chronicle
The Chronicle in the North American version goes up to August 2008 and lists more specific dates for more recent games. The European version goes up to November 1, 2008, keeps all dates year-only, alters game titles to their non-American versions, drops some US-centric games (such as The Simpsons Skateboarding) and adds other games (such as the Ty the Tasmanian Tiger games and the Tony Hawk's Pro Staker series).

Home-Run Contest
The distance counter in the Home-Run Contest measures in feet in the North American version, whereas in the European and Japanese versions, it measures in meters.

Deflicker
In North American versions, the menu icon for the Deflicker option is a capital D among straight lines, but in European versions, the D is replaced with a circle.

Voices
As with the previous installment, the voices were changed in the Japanese release.

Coming soon!

Announcer

 * Like in the previous game, after a battle finishes, the announcer says "Game!" in the North American and European versions, and "Game set!" in the Japanese version.
 * Also, the announcer says "Time!" in the North American and European versions, and "Time up!" in the Japanese version.
 * Spectate mode is called out as "Watch" in the Japanese version.

Miscellaneous Information

 * The European release of the game had the Sierra Entertainment logo in place of the Activision logo at the beginning of the game.
