HYPERFIGHT 2 is the sequel to the original HYPERFIGHT, a fast-paced 2D fighting game where your meter is your life. This meter replaces a traditional healthbar - win by filling it completely OR knocking your opponent out of bounds. You'll need to balance risk/reward between using special moves and moving closer to victory. Resource management and space control are critical as the game changes with every interaction.

This installment takes everything up to 11 - expanded movesets, more offensive and defensive options, and improved online features - while keeping the beloved accessibility of the original.

NEW AND RETURNING CHARACTERS

A fully voiced roster of characters, each with their own unique movesets and playstyles! Beloved favorites from the original return alongside some new faces.

PLAY ONLINE, WITH FRIENDS OR FOES

Featuring rollback netcode and menu-based lobbies. Create your own private lobbies, or join a public Quick Match lobby and instantly find opponents ready to challenge.

Easy, seamless, and functional - so you can focus on the fight.
