To answer some burning fan questions, Wavedash Games have dipped into the mailbag for their latest video. Picking out some of the most commonly asked queries from the platform fighter community, this Q&A hopes to clarify some things about this (still unnamed!) platform fighter.
We should finally see some footage of the game this summer, with Wavedash hoping to launch a closed beta in the fall of this year. With it currently scheduled to launch in early 2018, fans should get a decent amount of time to play with the game ahead of its release. As it is a free-to-play game, the project is planned to have various cosmetic items that characters can equip, including new taunts and respects that players can use in a battle.
As the game is going to launch on PC, it will launch with digital controls as opposed to the analog controls seen in something like Super Smash Bros. Melee. This means players will be able to play with Xbox, PS4 and Gamecube controllers, alongside keyboard and mouse support. Yes, that does mean both the Smash Box and the B0XX will be legal straight out of the gate with this platform fighter.
Wavedash answer more questions like their approach to balance changes in the video, so make sure to watch the whole thing. The studio are planning to reveal new character Raymer next week, so stay tuned for more info very soon.
