River City Girls 2 Scores A Free Double Dragon DLC Update Next Week

Weirdly just yesterday I was telling my brother about how this game was odd in that it seemed like there was groundwork there for later add-ons but then they just kind of abandoned it. Funny how that timing shakes out.

Very nice! Love how Billy is totally chill, Jimmy is a rage machine, and Marian is just there in the corner wondering “what the heck, I thought I ditched these guys?”

“Go beat up the world, bro!”

How’s the performance of the game currently?

Hyped up for ‘em!

I second Niiyama, anyone here know if the framerate was improved after the updates?

Pretty cool to have tho Double Dragon dudes as playable characters. I need to get back to River City Girls 2 anyway.

You can't trick me. Those aren't girls.

WayForward is STILL working on that? Is that why the game never went to retail like the first one outside of southeast Asia?

These guys sound like a bunch of grumpy gamers.

Finally! The Game Grumps are playable in this game

@Ryu_Niiyama the official website says it’s been “improved”, but it still runs at 30 FPS

@Kingy @Ryu_Niiyama

I personally find its now much smoother. I got half way through at launch but put it on hold til the patch arrived as input lag and clunkiness meant I couldn't pull off the more elaborate combos.

Now, much much better imo. Yes it's still 30fps, but it's still an absolute blast... and portable.

edit: Shantae as DLC would be amazing

30 FPS is pretty decent. Don’t understand why gamers nowadays are so stressed over it.

As a massive DD fan, and the fact this game expanded the Double Dragon lore by giving background characters some depth, this move was long overdue and even hinted at.

Oh, cool. 4 player?

Truthfully I thought this was already out. Dunno if this update will work with my playasia copy I have of this game but it would be nice. I haven’t really played 2 that much, it just didn’t hook me like the first one, for one the performance wasn’t so great. Bunny and Jammy look a bit like the battletoads to me.

@TYRANACLES I dug 2 when I played it at launch, and didn't mind the performance issues (other than how long it took to load between doors), but I do definitely think it's weaker than the first game. It's just kind of too much, the map is way too big and there's a lot of filler and backtracking that bogs it down. I wouldn't be shocked if it's twice the length the first game is and that's just too much.

I hope it works the same for the physical japanese versions. Just putting the game in the console and waiting for the update to pop up.

is there a mute option? also a mute option for their crappy song? I'm not even sure if I wanna buy this DLC, hate how these 2 talentless hacks with their dwindling YouTube careers that isn't going anywhere keep getting roles they are vastly underqualified for. whatever happened to getting talented voice actors for a role rather than washed up e-celebs who made their fame burping into microphones and making poop jokes? geez

lol, they are Fist of the North Star huge here. I like it.

Are we sure this is free? It says it's "premium" DLC.

@MARl0 Bimmy and Jimmy are most likely a paid DLC while there will still be an overall free DLC update (motion comic, new shops, accessories, etc.) for ALL players.

I only recognize Bimmy

I though it's a paid dlc since they're marketing it as premium dlc, nice it's free 😃

I'll follow the Dragons to the ends of the Earth. But Bimmy and "Jammy" tho...? 😂😂😂
