Each character is automatically equipped with a standard hand-held weapon. Linn uses a katana while Dutch hits enemies using his cybernetic arm. The Predator hunter uses a staff similar to a Naginata, while the warrior uses an extendable combi-stick with a retractable spear. Other weapons such as pipes can be found in containers or taken from fallen enemies. Linn and the Predators will throw most of these at enemies, but Dutch will hold onto them and swing them repeatedly.

Each character is also equipped with gun for ranged attacks. Linn uses a rapid-firing pistol, Dutch has a mounted smart gun, and the Predators both use shoulder-mounted energy weapons. Ammunition is represented by a meter near the bottom of the screen; when the meter is depleted, the character is unable to fire until it refills. Linn's ammunition refills fastest, but she is completely defenseless while she reloads. Dutch and the Predators can fight while waiting for their ammunition to refill. A flame thrower and several other guns can also be picked up, though these have a finite amount of ammunition.



The game featurs four characters: two Colonial Marines that ally with a pair of Predators. Each character has varying levels of speed, strength, jumping ability and direction, and different attacks.
* Lieutenant Linn Kurosawa — Linn uses a pistol and katana as weapons and can execute several martial arts attacks. She is faster and more agile than Dutch, but has lower stamina and must stop moving to reload her gun. She can execute a number of combination attacks. While she cannot grapple enemies, she can throw them while in the air. She can throw the Predators' disc weapon, hitting enemies that are already knocked down. She also has a special "Soukeiha" attack that is executed by holding the attack button for 2-3 seconds and then releasing it. Linn appears in cameos in the later Capcom games Street Fighter Alpha 2, Street Fighter III: New Generation, and Namco x Capcom.
* Major Dutch Schaefer — Dutch is named after and roughly based on Arnold Schwarzenegger's character in the original Predator film. He has a cybernetic arm with a smart gun mounted on it. His attacks are powerful but slow and he dashes forward instead of jumping.
* Predator hunter — The hunter is the younger of the two Predators. His attacks are shorter in range than those of the warrior but deal more damage and can execute more combination attacks. His staff weapon cannot be used while jumping or in the air.
* Predator warrior — The older of the two Predators, his attacks have a longer range than those of the hunter, but deal less damage. He can use his combi-stick weapon while jumping or in the air, diving and ramming it into multiple targets simultaneously.
