​@@hazardousjazzgasm129 the tutorials are awesome and pretty much teach anyone just starting in fighters better than any other game or person can teach you on how to do these ridiculous combos. no joke. step by step and does it like no other fighter out there. pretty solid entry title into fighters if youre not intimidated. as accessible as it gets into standard fighters. ps theres no long cut scenes to sit through, no locked tutorial bits, its all there for you to use and learn to play all fighting games, not just skullgirls. pss i love this game even tho im bad.

There’s a chance that we’re gonna get another Skullgirls game in the future, but we all have to pick up and encourage our friends and other Skullgirls lovers to pick up Lab Zero’s new game: Indivisible!!! It comes next week(10/8/2019) and if you preorder it right now you’ll get the main character’s pet bestie, as well as some “Themed” costumes which we all know that it’s gonna be Skullgirls related!!! It’s available for PS4, XB1 & Steam and it’s only $40 so...grab Indivisible and let’s make a new Skullgirls game a possibility!! 💯😁🎮

There was a beta for Indivisible??? Damn...I didn’t know that part but either way I am still hyped up for this game ever since I seen the mini trailer for this game back in August!! 😊😊😊

[@ilexyellowdog]

To be clear Lab Zero haven't said anything about an SG2, in fact, Autumn games (the publisher and rights holders for SG) haven't paid L0 their royalties for SG so unless that is resolved there is little chance of an SG2 anytime soon. Everyone should still try out and support Indivisible and Lab Zero though, it is shaping up to be a great game all on its own.

[@antmania215]

Lex Well thanks for the heartbreaking information but.... I’m still hopeful that we’ll see another Skullgirls game at least before we die or too old to lift a controller!! Lol And you’re absolutely right, people do need to pick up Indivisible as well as Skullgirls if they haven’t picked that up yet as well.

There are more characters coming 4 in total for the season pass with the first character being annie

[@Infin1tas]

is there no movelist for basic attack combos like in mortal kombat? can't find it anywhere

[@Okamooki]

Not that kind of game. MK, Tekken, SoulCalibur and VF/DoA have prebaked Target combos with specific animations that you HAVE to do because the game is restrictive with cancels. SG lets you cancel basically anything into anything as long as the next attack is the same power or stronger (excluding special -> special and super -> super (if you only have one character)). So a basic combo is Lp,Lk,Mp,Mk,Hk,c.Hp,Jump cancel,Light,Medium,special,super
