As opposed to no such things existing, the game automatically creating chains where it sees fit, or the attack/move chaining being more freeform.
Usually seen in versus fighting games, but is also used in sports games to produce moves that grant style points (though in the latter the freeform or automatic chaining is more common).
Something like: ↙↓↘→ＡＢ appearing in instruction manuals or whatever is clear indication of the presence of combo moves.
