Meet The Blazing Strike Roster | Indie Fighting Game Spotlight

[@Gamersgoinblind]

For the record, that post was taken down because Sony hasn't given the dev certification for PS5 even though the switch and ps4 have been passed. That certification process is why it's taken so long for the game to come out.

[@syggyballs]

Thanks for the info. Can I ask how you know this?

[@Wiziliz]

I won't lie, the gameplay hasn't caught my attention yet through all these years, but it's still something I want to support because bar SNK's stuff, lots of fighting games feel more concerned with appealing to esports or battle pass junk instead of continuing that soul that arcade-era fighters have. Some of the characters here certainly look cool, I think that my day one will be the femme fatale Giorno, haha. Will say the backgrounds look really good, hoping the feel and overall gameplay matches

[@TheBlackOtaku]

I completely forgot this game even existed and that’s coming from me as a Die Hard fighting game fan.

[@TheChrisLotus]

Its basically been in a stuck in a start-stop loop. Earlier this week a trailer dropped on Twitter suggesting it was going to come out this month...and then that post was taken down like a day later.

[@V2ULTRAKill]

​@@TheChrisLotus hopefully we get something real

[@garretwoeller7669]

I hope this game is actually solid with the community I want to be able to enjoy this game for years

[@SaviorGabriel]

Been looking forward to this game. I'm fine with them taking their time with it. I imagine it's not easy for a smaller developer to put out a new 2D sprite based fighting game in modern day. Props to them giving it a shot.

[@BubsArcadeFighters]

Ive been following this game as I love 2d fighters. Great video breaking down the roster. It looks awesome but one thing that bugs me is some of the characters in the bkgd of the stages are out of scale...(they are way bigger than player controlled characters.) I hope they can fix this as it bothers me. Roster looks cool ...hope we can get a release date soon.

[@Ucey365]

That Nakamura theme goes hard

[@Jojolion3030]

While i don't have any ill will for the game, the way that the game is being showcased and the advertising (or lack their of) makes me feel like the game will be dead on arrival.

[@TheChrisLotus]

The start-stop loop it has been stuck in is definitely holding it back. As I mentioned to someone else, the publisher had released a trailer this week suggesting the game was set to release this month. The post containing said trailer then vanished after a day or two.

[@brianpbillingsley3687]

Aye, you a fool for that Tiger Mask needle drop! 😂

[@suichilegend]

This cast looks really good

[@VaultXIV]

I'm looking forward to this

[@stevencisneros9306]

Out of all these characters….Zero captivates me due to his backstory and interesting personality!!

[@joshuaknox2724]

still waiting for this its looked so cool been following it since its inception.

[@TerraFuu]

Looking forward to it, especially a steam release.

[@DooDoo-f4v]

Mateo and Alexander for life

[@ransom009]

I love the design for Zero

[@WARLORD626]

The type of sprites that I'm looking for is like Funkin Rivals or Dragon ball fighterz or Kof 12 but with beefed up graphics or like Kaiju Dawn of the Monsters.I believe that's what a lot of people are looking for.

[@bellzo5]

Why is it cool that samuri and nagi is in "item"

[@Zz-_-]

19:53 I mean prison and patriarchy does make me think of America 😂

[@SyrinRichxsonTV]

bro chris could of voiced a fighting game character? that would of been peak.

[@TheChrisLotus]

Yep, it could've very well happened. I don't think I had what they were looking for though. Would definitely love to try again with another game

[@SyrinRichxsonTV]

@@TheChrisLotus Fair enough, it's good to see your still making videos.

[@pizzaboiboiboi2552]

Ngl I think i might have to check this game out

[@damiendemaxofficial4496]

Mateo looks a lot like Victor from tekken😂

[@kingbae6814]

fist of north star pink samurai

[@shaideyfresh1]

Is crazy they didn't want to put this on XBox ??

[@OnyxeBlade]

I really hope that Pink Samurai fits my play style and I love the backstory details for all the fighters

[@landonhulett2119]

Shunsuke - Ryu and Ryo Sakazaki. Hana - Yakuza Menat. Alexander - King. Pink Samurai - Cyberpunk 2077 Junker Queen. Zero - Mokujin and Combot. When is this game coming out?

[@TheChrisLotus]

Oddly enough, a video posted to Twitter from Numskull Games (who is publishing partners with Aksys Games) suggested it would come out this month. The video & post were then mysteriously deleted recently.

[@risensamson8873]

Im still confused that Jake or Shinsuke is the main protagonist of the game. Wait, didnt know Mochi is a girl

[@TheChrisLotus]

I think they are co-protagonists, but seeing Jake is more prominently featured I think more of the focus will be on him.

[@joshuaknox2724]

strange that you would diss mk1 when kof 15 has absolutely no content other than arcade mode and online fight...it doesn't even have time attack or survival...so i hope city of the wolves can fix that, which i'm sure they will with other fighters following mk and adding big story modes and other distractions.

[@TheChrisLotus]

Yeah you didnt watch my KOF XV review at all because I criticized that very same thing & even claimed it was one of XV's largest drawbacks. Nice try.

[@damiendemaxofficial4496]

Nagi and Pink are a thing? Nice. LGBT representation

[@kingbae6814]

ryu knock off
