Just For Games announces 'Ganryu 2' for Xbox, Playstation, Switch & PC

Just For Games and development studio Storybird Studio has announced that their upcoming action game Ganryu 2 will be available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC on April 22nd.

2D platformer 'Ganryu 2' announced for Xbox, Playstation, Switch and PC

Ganryu 2 is the sequel to the Ganryu game made by VISCO on NEOGEO back in 1999. The universe takes place in a feudal fantasy Japan which is strongly inspired by the story of Takezo Musashi, whose adventures are unfolded in a series of books (mainly "The Stone and the Sword").

You play as Miyamoto Musashi travelling through a 17th century fantasy Japan, from north to south to the island of Ganryu-jima where everything started between Musashi and Kojiro.

After his victory against Kojiro, Musashi decided to meditate and try his hand at art, in the north of Japan, in the province of Hokkaido. During one of his meditations, a spirit contacted him : "Miyamoto Musashi, our fight is not over, I am waiting for you to finish our fight once and for all! All of Japan will pay for your insult! I'm waiting for you Miyamoto Musashi!”

There is no doubt for Musashi that the voice was the Sasaki Kojirō’s one. His body was defeated, but his spirit remains, and his intentions are still destructive. Miyamoto Musashi then understood that he would have to travel across Japan from north to south and go to the island of Ganryû-jima, where he firstly defeated Sasaki Kojirō, to fight again and liberate the spirit of Kojiro forever.

Ganryu 2 features:

  • A hack'n'slash game inspired by the story of Takezo Musashi “The Stone And The Sword” released in 1930’s by Eiji Yoshikawa and which is one of the most famous story and real samurai in Japan!
  • Explore a fantasist 17th century Japan through seasons: Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter.
  • Defeat Kojiro in The Floating Fortress and save Japan!
  • Dash, double-jump, wall-jump and throw kunais to defeat various enemies!
  • Use your special abilities, kamis, to best your enemies.
  • Collect Hanafuda cards through levels.
  • A beautiful pixel-art game inspired by classics such as Shinobi 3 and Shadow Dancer.

Pre-orders are open for the physical versions, and on the respective publishers' digital stores. A limited edition with a unique keyart and some goodies will be available only on PixelHeart store (1000 units for Nintendo Switch, 1000 units for PlayStation 4)

Ganryu 2 will be available on Xbox One, Playstation 4, Nintendo Switch and Steam on April 22, 2022.Lovers of physical versions will also be able to get their hands on the game in a retail edition for Nintendo Switch and Playstation 4, also available on April 22, 2022.

Tagged: Gaming, Xbox One,

Wardens Rising, a PvE co-op action that has us defending bases against gargantuan assaults, MOBA-style, is heading to Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC.

Wardens Rising

In Wardens Rising you will play as heroes in an elite fighting force assembled to save humanity from massive invasions by interdimensional enemies. An action-packed coop PvE MOBA-like experience of sorts, Wardens Rising gameplay is a mix of action hero shooter and base defense, where player heroes must protect energy cores across the realm from 100’s enemies in a single battle by using their special abilities, building and upgrading defense towers, and deploying tactical items on-the-fly. Between invasions heroes can upgrade their abilities and stats as well as unlock and upgrade new content to equip in their technology loadout. The isometric perspective helps you see what’s happening in battle with the invading enemy forces as well as to plan the best location to build defense towers and deploy tactical items liketraps, walls, healing, teleporters and more!

Let's take a look at the official trailer!

Hero Classes

Each Warden hero class has a set of special abilities, core ranged attack and an “ultimate” + their customizable loadout of technology that includes towers, items, and a SPEC companion – all of which can be upgraded. Currently 6 classes are planned for initial release including a Soldier, Elemental Master, Shinobi, Engineer, Hunter, and one that is TBA. You can upgrade your hero's core statistics and abilities overtime with victory points that you earn through success in defeating invasions. The game encourages experimentation with various combinations of SPEC, towers, and items configured in your loadout based on the map, invasion, game mode, or your personal preference. In addition to special abilities, all Wardens can dodge, sprint, jump and glide through the air with their personal energy reserve. The jump + glide feature is unique for a game with an isometric camera view, gives heroes a tactical advantage, and is loads of fun to do while blasting enemies from the air!
