VTuber Fighting Game Idol Showdown Will Be Out For Free This May

Star Wars week will be busy when it comes to the fangame vtuber community.

Idol Showdown, a Hololive Fighting Game, will be out on 6th May GMT+8 on PC (via Steam), which is 11 days from now. Since it’s a fangame that isn’t profiting off of Cover and the Hololive brand, the game will be free.

In addition, the game revealed its eighth and final character: Kiryu Coco. A famous vtuber a few years back, she’s known for her tail, horns, and her love for Kiryu Kazuma from the Yakuza series.

The full list of characters are:

• Inugami Korone
• Tokino Sora
• Fubuki Shirakami
• Nakiri Ayame
• Shishiro Botan
• Hoshimachi Suisei
• Aki Rosenthal
• Kiryu Coco

Check out the gameplay for the first four revealed vtubers in the upcoming fan-fighting game, as well as the game’s features.
