News Video Michael Sosinka

Das Beat 'em Up "Fantasy Strike" wurde auf PC, Mac, Linux, PlayStation 4 und Nintendo Switch auf Free-to-Play umgestellt. Bisherige Besitzer bekommen ein "Founder’s Pack". Mit dem Free-to-Play-Launch wurden auch zwei neue Charaktere hinzugefügt (Sirus Quince und General Onimaru). Weiterhin wurde ein Abo-Dienst eingeführt und man darf sich den neuen Trailer anschauen.

Play as Every Character for Free

  • A first for free-to-play fighting games, Fantasy Strike now allows players to play ALL characters for free online immediately with no grind-to-unlock. This includes the two new characters, Sirus Quince and General Onimaru, who each add new mechanics to the game. Quince deploys illusions to confuse his opponents and can make these illusions “real” for a limited time by landing his super. Meanwhile, Onimaru uses deliberate, powerful sword strikes that can become unblockable in the right situations.

Practice Mode, Solo Matches vs. AI, and Daily Challenges are Free

  • All Fantasy Strike players can play online in casual and ranked modes and watch the action in spectator mode. Practice mode, solo matches vs. AI opponents, and the daily challenges are also all available for free. Those looking for more can find it in the “Core Pack,” which provides access to local Versus mode, online matches against friends, Boss Rush mode, Survival mode, and an Arcade mode with beautifully-illustrated narrative sequences. Those looking for a lot more can buy the “Collector’s Pack,” featuring everything in the “Core Pack” plus a ton of cosmetics, an exclusive “Party Time” KO effect, and one year of the new “Fantasy+” subscription.

Fantasy+ Subscription Service

  • “Fantasy+” is a new optional subscription service that doubles XP gains, grants access to special Master Costumes for each character who reaches experience level 20, and introduces an extensive new Replay Theater feature. With this, players can rewatch their own matches, search for replays containing specific characters and skill levels, and view an endless stream of replays in the new Ranked TV and Friend TV channels. Players can also adjust the playback speed of replays, scrub through videos, and even frame step for deep analysis. A “Fantasy+” subscription can be purchased in 1-month, 6-month, and 12-month increments in-game with gems (approximate value of $4.99, $24.99, and $39.99, respectively).
  • Fantasy Strike provides a friendly meeting ground for newcomers and veterans to learn and enjoy hardcore fighting games. Designed to teach and demystify, Fantasy Strike shows players its systems clearly with in-depth video tutorials and innovative frame advantage visual effects. These helpful features are married with other amenities like one-click friend challenges and spectating, built-on-the-fly tournaments, cross-platform play support between all systems, latency-combating GGPO technology, and more.
