WayForward Technologies have announced the River City Girls Zero release date is set for February 2022 on Switch, later for the other platforms.
While the River City Girls Zero release date is set for February 14th on Switch, the Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 versions are coming sometime later this spring.
The previously announced physical editions for the game are now available for pre-order, over on the Limited Run Games online store.
Here’s a brief rundown on the game:
In River City Girls Zero, players will hit the streets with hot-blooded heroines Misako and Kyoko alongside series mainstays Kunio and Riki in one- or two-player local co-op action using a variety of punches, kicks, throws, and character-specific special moves as they attempt to absolve Kunio and Riki of a crime they didn’t commit.
Powered by Limited Run Games’ Carbon Engine, the classic 16-bit graphics, soundtrack, and gameplay remain as faithful as possible to the original release, and are augmented with new opening and closing motion-comic cutscenes, a new animated intro, and additional music by River City Girls composer Megan McDuffee. The game also features both classic and RCG-style English translations.
