Two Strikes set to arrive on mobile via Crunchyroll Game Vault later this year
Get ready for an adrenaline-pumping experience with Two Strikes, the highly anticipated manga-style fighter that's making its way to mobile devices. Thanks to Crunchyroll Game Vault, subscribers will soon be able to dive into this thrilling game for free. Two Strikes combines intense, dark, and bloody action with the charm of manga and anime, offering a challenging yet rewarding casual fighting gameplay that's sure to captivate fans.
The phrase "measure twice and cut once" isn't just for carpenters; it's a fitting mantra for the sword fights in Two Strikes. Developed by Retro Reactor, this 2D fighter gives you just one chance to make your move. With its stark black and white characters, speed lines, and other comic book style effects, Two Strikes feels like a manga brought to life, truly embodying the essence of manga-like aesthetics rather than just being animesque.
Two Strikes prides itself on its challenging gameplay, akin to games like Hellish Quart. Here, you can only withstand a few hits before defeat, making feinting and dodging crucial to your strategy. While it may be simple to learn, mastering Two Strikes is no easy feat, promising a deeply engaging experience for players.
Iku-zo A glance at Two Strikes reveals a significant improvement over its predecessor, One Strike. The latter had a somewhat confused aesthetic, trying to balance crunchy pixels with lavish hand-drawn artwork. Two Strikes, however, strikes a better balance and offers a more cohesive visual experience.
Crunchyroll has been making waves recently, bringing cult classics like Corpse Party and The House in Fata Morgana to mobile, along with other Eastern-flavored releases. This move could be a recipe for success, and Two Strikes is a testament to their commitment to delivering visually striking and engaging games.
