Switch owners can now experience a unique mix between two of the most popular game genres: Fighting and RPG, thanks to the recent release of Shadow Fight 2. Having previously graced smartphones in its first three incarnations, this ultimate version of Shadow Fight 2 offers players a bonus story chapter for the first time.
Shadow Fight 2’s story places you in the role of a martial champion, being the only one capable of saving the mystical land from an ancient evil that has arisen. You’ll do so by travelling across seven distinct provinces, gathering lethal weapons, and upgrading skills to improve your moves. All this is wrapped up within a 2D animated art style inspired by Japanese cinema.
In addition to a special story chapter, the Nintendo Switch release of Shadow Fight 2 also sees the debut local multiplayer (PVP mode). In this you can fight against friends to test out your personal ability, feeling every kick and punch thanks to HD rumble support within the Switch’s Joy-Con. The UI has been revamped too, making more sense for the hybrid console.
This RPG-fighting game has already conquered #1-position in the iOS and Android charts with well over 100 million downloads. Want to see what all the fuss is about on Switch? Download Shadow Fight 2 from the Nintendo eShop now.
