The next evolution in Hololive VTuber fan games, after a Vampire Survivors clone, is clearly 2d fighting games. At least, that’s how developer Besto Game Team sees it.

The devs basically answered the following question “When will there be a full Hololive fighting game?” Lo and behold, this upcoming fan game was made, and it’s called Idol Showdown. Idol Showdown is a free 2D fighting game where VTubers use their special skills to beat up each other in mortal combat. The characters in the roster include:

• Korone Inugami
• Shirakami Fubuki; a versatile character who has gacha-type mechanics to level up her moves
• Nakiri Ayame
• Tokino Sora; a mid-ranged setplay character, has musical projectiles

There will be four more VTubers joining the roster. Also, the game has rollback netcode. Check out the awesome 2D gameplay below. The game will be out in Spring 2023.
