Two years after the release of Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl, Ludosity Interactive has decided to do it again with a new opus. Unveiled to everyone’s surprise last July, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 intends to refine the formula of its predecessor with even more fun at stake. The new trailer with SpongeBob is here to illustrate it.
A second episode tinged with novelties and improvements
There is indeed no question of copying and pasting by adding a few characters to create an illusion, Ludosity Interactive has planned improvements on the gameplay and game modes as well as a big novelty for players who want to get their hands on this following.
Nickelodeon Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 will feature a single-player campaign mode featuring roguelike elements, voice acting for all playable characters, and full crossplay for all media.
The very principle of the game does not change, it is always a question of knocking his opponent out of the arena by chaining the blows until he falls without follow-up. There are, however, changes to report in this regard.
In this sense, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 will offer an analog control system in order to offer more attack and defense options to each player.
The addition of a gauge is also to be noted. The latter also seems to have the same functioning as that of Street Fighter, namely that you can consume it to modify your attacks in order to increase the damage and effects, cancel movements or even perform ultimate attacks.
Among the new mechanics detailed in the gameplay trailer. You will be able to perform rolls, dodges in a timely manner and use two types of aerial dodges.
Fans will be delighted to learn that the new movement options will make it possible to dash through the waves. Blocking now has a time limit before your bubble bursts, and you will still be able to be moved by attacks unless you are shielding yourself as you are hit and executing a parry.
New mini-games to take your mind off things
A new series of mini-games will also be available, you can play alone or with your friends and fight to establish the high scores. Although the details of each game are not known, we know their names: “Pinch the Blimps”, “Whack-a-Bot” and “Irken Armada Bootcamp Survival”.
