Skullgirls, the cult 2D fighter, is finally coming to PC next month.
Skullgirls studio Lab Zero hit a snag with cashing in its crowd-funds, as PayPal was reluctant to release the money for fear that dissatisfied customers would ask for a chargeback.
Skullgirls' crowd-funding effort ended at nearly $830,000, reaching the stretch goals for several new characters, voice packs, and new stages.
Shutting down the team behind a game usually spells more than a mite of trouble for a game, but Skullgirls is recovering nicely after Reverge Labs laid off its makers last June. The team reformed as Lab Zero Games, is working on a PC version, and is now receiving huge sums of money from fans crowdfunding DLC characters for the hand-drawn fighting game. You can chip in too, if you fancy.
Skullgirls is getting a large patch on PlayStation 3 tomorrow, and sometime in the future on 360, which includes a host of new features, modes, balance adjustments, and bug fixes.
Skullgirls will be coming to the PC later this year, with several improvements that will also hit consoles through patches.
We get into a fight with the Skullgirls and come out a bit battered and bloody. But we enjoyed it.
Revenge Labs' gorgeous hand-drawn 2D fighting game has just been dated. Skullgirls will be available on the PlayStation Store on April 10th, and Xbox Live Arcade on April 11th for $14.99.
Reverge Labs has announced that its upcoming 2D fighter, Skullgirls, will release in 'early 2012.'
