Need something to play this weekend? Sirlin Games are running a free test period for their under-development fighting game Fantasy Strike, running from July 28th to 30th. This build will feature eight characters and four stages, along with online cross-play between PC and Mac users. There is also local versus, arcade, and a fully-featured training mode for players who want to delve deep in Fantasy Strike‘s easy-to-pick-up, hard-to-master combat system.
Do keep in mind that this build of Fantasy Strike is pre-alpha, so there will be bugs that need ironing out, features that need tweaking, and characters that need balancing. Treat the weekend as a tasting session so you can see if its pared-back fighting system clicks with you.
You can download the Weekend Test build right here, with it activating at 1:00 PM PDT on Friday. The full version of Fantasy Strike is set to launch on PC, Mac, Linux and PlayStation 4 in late 2018. If you want to get ahead of the curve before Friday, look below for the character spotlight for Grave, the electric swordsman:
