Blazing Strike Launches October 17 for PS5, PS4, Switch, and PC
Publisher Aksys Games and developer RareBreed Makes Games have announced the highly anticipated release of Blazing Strike, an arcade fighting game set to revolutionize the genre. Scheduled to launch on October 17 for the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam, Blazing Strike promises to deliver a gaming experience like no other.
A Modern Take on Classic Fighters
Blazing Strike takes inspiration from classic arcade fighting game series created by industry giants such as Capcom and SNK. Developer RareBreed Makes Games has infused the game with the excitement and nostalgia of 2D pixel art genre pioneers while introducing a unique gameplay system with modern mechanics.
Exciting Gameplay Mechanics
The game features a four-button system that includes six normal attacks - light, medium, and heavy punches and kicks, as well as three defense moves: block, guard, and parry. Players can utilize the Rush Trigger to unleash fast-paced attacks and movements, but must be cautious as it depletes the Rush Meter, leaving the character temporarily vulnerable. This mechanic adds a new layer of strategy to the gameplay, requiring players to balance offense and defense effectively.
Diverse Game Modes
Blazing Strike offers three distinct play modes: Story Mode, Arcade Mode, and VS Mode. In addition, the game includes training, sparring, and online matches via Persona AI, as well as online play powered by GGPO. Players can expect a dynamic and engaging multiplayer experience, both locally and online.
Don't Miss Out
With its innovative gameplay mechanics, diverse game modes, and stunning pixel art visuals, Blazing Strike is a must-play for fans of the fighting game genre. Mark your calendars for October 17 and prepare to experience the next evolution of arcade fighting games!
