Guilty Gear is the first game of the Guilty Gear series. It follows the story of ten combatants (one of whom is a hidden boss character) entering "The Second Sacred Order Tournament" for reasons of their own, set in a bleak future in which its present time has just recovered from a 100-year-war against man-made bio-organic weapons called "Gears". Despite being the first release of the Guilty Gear franchise, the game itself reveals very little of its past storyline; it is not until later releases of the video games, drama CDs, and novels of the franchise that its history is thoroughly explained.
