When an old enemy returns for revenge, Misako, Kyoko, Kunio, Riki, and newcomers Marian and Provie take on a new street-brawling adventure. Choose a fighter and follow the story through River City.
Explore the city’s connected districts, take on main and side quests, find secrets, and visit shops. Combat mixes punches, kicks, guard-crushing attacks, elemental effects, and combos that can carry enemies into the air.
Earn experience and money to level up, buy moves and equipment, and strengthen your fighters. You can also recruit defeated enemies or hire heavies to assist in battles, and play solo or in local or online co-op.
Players who enjoyed the game often praise its expressive pixel art, music, colorful cast, and flexible combat, with co-op and the expanded roster also recurring highlights. Some reviewers find the larger adventure and combo options a welcome step up from the first game, while others criticize repeated backtracking, hard-to-read navigation, and boss fights or combat that feel frustrating. Opinions on the story and humor are mixed.
