==Gameplay==
''Invincible Tiger: The Legend of Han Tao'' will feature basic beat 'em up and hand-to-hand action elements with a basic interface and easy to learn, pick-up-and-play controls. Invincible Tiger features a number of different modes for single- and multiplayer action. Gamers can play through the game's storyline in co-op mode, which is available both locally and online. The game also includes an Endurance Mode, in which players are tasked with surviving an unending onslaught of foes for a specified amount of time.

The game provides both an anaglyph mode and several stereoscopic modes for 3D viewing while playing the game. While the anaglyph mode will work on any TV, use of the stereoscopic modes requires the player to have a 3D ready TV.
