Each character earns money and experience independently, so the game will have loads of replay value for completionists. Two additional characters, Provie from River City Ransom: Underground and Marian from Double Dragon, will unlock with story progression. To start with, River City Girls 2 features four playable characters: Misako and Kyoko (who both debuted in River City Girls Zero) and Kunio and Riki, the stars of the first River City Ransom. There our heroines while away their time playing video games until a fateful event finally leads them back into town, a town filled with gangsters who are out to get them.
Soon, Misako and Kyoko find themselves kicked out of school and confined to Misako's home. A super powerful yakuza crime lord, Sabu blames Misako and Kyoko, the titular River City Girls, for the humiliation of his family in the previous game. River City Girls 2 opens with an amazing animated intro video followed by a fully-voiced motion-comic that depicts the escape of the villainous Sabu from prison.
Now the game has launched (in all regions) at last, and it does indeed feature cross-play co-op! Even Xbox and PlayStation gamers can team up together. That makes River City Girls 2 an even more exciting proposition, to say nothing of the huge world, engaging story, fine-tuned combat, and 4-player local co-op. River City fans can also look forward to River City Girls Zero, the 16-bit game that inspired River City Girls 1 and 2, arriving digitally on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox on September 13, and on Steam on September 22.When we interviewed WayForward about River City Girls 2 just ahead of launch, the developer let slip that their new beat 'em up RPG would feature cross-play. Players wishing to purchase a physical edition of River City Girls 2 won’t have long to wait either open preorders for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox versions of the game will begin soon on, including standard and collector’s editions, as well as a variety of merchandise. The exact release date for River City Girls 2 in North America and Europe has yet to be announced, but players attending the PAX West event in Seattle, WA, between September 2 and September 5, 2022, will be able to go hands-on with the knuckle-busting action early at the Limited Run Games booth (#303). Many new accessories and food items can be obtained from more than 40 shops to power-up characters as well. With up to four players taking control of Misako, Kyoko, Kunio, Riki, Provie, and Marian for maximum combo-filled carnage, the action has never been wilder or more intense! Other ways for players to turn the tide in their favor include new weapons (such as a saxophone, molotov cocktails, and even a sofa) and new elemental attacks that inflict extra hurt on foes. Sabu’s dominance is all but assured - will Misako, Kyoko, and their allies be able to fight back? More importantly, will they be able to travel across town to buy the latest hit video game? (c) WayForwardįortunately, players will have numerous ways to even the odds, not the least of which is the game’s newly revealed four-player co-op mode. Sabu’s efforts to restore his family name are aided by his snarky adopted son Ken (previously seen in River City Girls Zero) and an army of underworld hoodlums led by tech expert Tsuiko, strength-enhancing chef Primo, and magic-wielding witch Blaire. He immediately seizes control of River City and makes life miserable for the heroines, kicking them out of school and turning the town into a lawless battlezone.
In River City Girls 2, crime lord Sabu breaks out of prison to avenge his daughter Sabuko’s humiliating defeat at the hands of Misako and Kyoko in the first River City Girls.
