Publisher Arc System Works and developer WayForward have announced River City Girls Zero for Switch and “other platforms.”
The game is a localized port of the 1994-released game Shin Nekketsu Kōha: Kunio-tachi no Banka, coming to Switch in 2021 and later for other platforms. Limited Run Games will offer a limited physical edition as well.
Here’s a brief rundown on the game:
River City Girls Zero lets players experience the first time that Misako and Kyoko teamed up with Kunio and Riki to take to the streets in hard-hitting, curb-stomping action. While the graphics, music, and gameplay all remain true to the classic 16-bit Super Famicom release, this version marks the first time the 1994 game will be localized for the West. A new opening cinematic, new manga cutscenes, and new theme song by River City Girls composer Megan McDuffee have been added as well. Set out solo or team up with a friend in local co-op and discover how the River City Girls story began!
