There is no proof that Arc is composed of ex-Capcom staff, most known folks who worked on Darkstalkers stayed on until the late 2000s before leaving to join other, non-Arc developers.


The main team responsible for ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'' and ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'', originally named "Team Neo Blood", was composed of ex-''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}'', ''VideoGame/SamuraiShodown'', ''VideoGame/TheLastBlade'', and ''VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters'' developers, which explains why many characters in the first ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'' game are blatant {{exp|y}}ies or amalgamations of characters from those games, and typical gameplay in their titles tends to be heavily high-damage and combo-oriented, with lots of juggling.
