Players can also attempt to recover when launched off of the stage, but failure to do so will lead to them falling out of bounds, resulting in a KO. Each player's objective is to KO their opponents by knocking them outside the stage's boundaries, and as a character's damage percentage rises, they can be launched progressively farther by an opponent's attacks. As each character is attacked, damage is accumulated and the percent value increases. Unlike most traditional fighting games, each character's health is measured by a damage percentage counter.
