Pixel Art Fighting Game Blazing Strike Will Be Out This Fall

2D fighting game Blazing Strike will be out on Fall 2022 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC (Steam) according to Aksys Games.

Aksys and developer RareBreed makes Games will also be releasing a limited edition of the game. This includes a full colour art book, a double CD soundtrack, and a set of collectible character cards.

Here’s a quick description of the upcoming 2D fighting game, which is sure to sate the thirst of fighting game players looking for the days of yore.

“Blazing Strike features a four-button system with six normal attacks: light, medium and heavy punches and kicks, as well as three defense moves: block, guard and parry. A Rush Trigger enables fighters to execute fast-paced attacks and movements, but using it will slowly drain the Rush Meter, sending the character into a temporary groggy state. This allows players to execute exciting combos while having to manage the Rush Meter. The game will include three play modes: Story Mode, Arcade Mode, and VS Mode, with training, sparring, and online match via Persona AI, and online play powered by GGPO.”
