River City is an incredibly violent place. It's home to gangs, street fights, and kidnappings. It makes you wonder if the only river in the city is the river of blood from all the heads being smashed in with lead pipes, and spare tires. River City Girls doesn't look like it's going to stray too far from River City Ransom in terms of violence, though now it's time for the girls to start jump-k🎀icking thugs.
However, it will be bringing a little something different. River City Girls will be add♑ing an element where players can collect anime girls to help deliver some solid concussions.
River City Girls will not only be about schoolgirls wielding chains and baseball bats in order to rescue their boyfriends; it will also have a recruitment system so players can enlist other girls to aide them in the heat of 🙈intense combat.
Apparently, there will be upwards of 50 enemies in the game, and players will be able to somehow convince all of them to join your side. In an interview with , Wayforward's Adam Tierney compared the system to Pokémon, though, in place of animals that can manipulate a variety of elements, River City Girls will feature assisting fighters that come in the form of brightly-colored anime schoolgirls. As such, there appears to be quite a bit of innovation on the River City Girls developer's end.
However, it doesn't seem like any of the recruited ladies will replace the main characters of Kyoto and Misako. Rather, players will be able to call in the girls to unleash an attack on your foes. This is kind of like a summon from an RPG, or as Tierney puts it, like the "Striker" system in Marvel Vs. Capcom. It is speculated that each girl will have their own special attack, so you can mix and match until you find the right combo of beauty, ﷺbrawn, and bone-breaking brutality.
River City Ransom is one in a crowd of NES games that still hold up to this day, and most other games released in the series has been a fun mix of fighting and RPG elements. It is being developed by Wayforward, the studio behind The Mummy Demastered, the Shantae series, and the similar Double Dragon Neon. Thus, there is a lot of promise behind River City Girls.
River City Girls is out on September 5th on PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. It might just be the perfect game for people who love beat 'em ups and collecting anime women. However, ꦇcollecting anime women sounds like an activity favored bℱy a niche audience.
