Guilty Gear (ギルティギア Giruti Gia?), subtitled The Missing Link, is the first game of the Guilty Gear series developed by Arc System Works. It was first released on the PlayStation in 1998. It follows the story of ten combatants 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 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.
