The Early Access version of the game provides access to 'local and online multiplayer PvP modes, a cooperative PvE mode, as well as a single-player arcade mode and Target challenge mode.'

Back in early 2013, a group of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fans were developing a 'non-profit, voluntary' fighting game featuring the equine stars from the cartoon television show.
