WarForward announced today That River City Girls 2 launches December 15 in North America and Europe. The beat-’em-up will be released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam.
We knew River City Girls 2 was coming out this year, but WayForward took a long time to set a release date. The sequel to the 2019 title (which is one of my favorite games of recent years, by the way) features Marian and Provie as new playable characters, along with Misako, Kyoko, Kunio, and Riki from its predecessor.
The River City Girls games follow the legacy of the classic beat ’em up franchises River City Rampage (aka the Kunio-kun series) and Double Dragon. Similar to River City Rampage, they combine RPG elements with their fighting action.
