Speed Brawl News

To celebrate the release of the game on consoles in Europe, and the arrival of another update patch of tweaks and optimisations for the game on Steam, we're going to reset* our leaderboards!

*Local times will be retained by your save file.



Owing to the substantial changes to game balancing, and the removal of a few bugs that could result in some unexpected unsportsmanlike conduct, we're going to flush the game's leaderboards. This will give new and returning players another run at being number 1, and more accurately represent some of the astonishing run times brawlers are scoring!

Once again, thank you to everyone in the Speed Brawler community, your reviews, streams and comments have been devoured by everyone here at Double Stallion Games. We've got some amazing additions to the game in development, we're listening to your critiques and requests, and we cannot wait to bring you even more Speed Brawl!

As a little tease, our current roadmap for continued development includes the following:

• Platinum Trophies for all events.
  
• S and + Rank challenges across all events.
  
• Character and enemy revisions to bring more speed to the game.
  
• New skins for fan favourites.
  
• New colours and more trail options.
  
• A brand new brawler.
  
• Oh yeah, and we're taking a tentative look at... Competitive modes
  

So... If you haven't left us a review, please do.

And... If you haven't told a friend about the game, please do that too.

Finally and most importantly... Keep on Brawlin', Brawlers!

Speed Brawl is set in a dystopic Victorian-era London. After a decade of war with the Lunar invaders named the Selenites, the British Empire finally vanquished the insect-like menace; following the war, the Selenites became the new workforce of our industrial revolution, ushering in a new era of progress and prosperity.

However, listlessness and disobedience rampaged throughout the middle and working classes. In order to satiate the masses, the ultimate entertainment, Speed Brawl, was created; an elite sport where only the bravest, the fastest, and the most worthy warriors could wage a petty war against the Selenite hordes.

To prove your worth in this chaotic world filled with colour and calamity you’ve gotta fight, for your right... to… Speed Brawl!

Speed Brawl is releasing this September on Kartridge, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Steam.

Prospective brawlers can wishlist now on the game’s Steam page. Learn more about the game and sign up for the newsletter on www.SpeedBrawl.com.

Kongregate, a leading publisher of mobile, console, PC, and web games, teams up with indie developer Double Stallion to reveal the stylish, anime-inspired 2D combat-racer Speed Brawl.

Launching this summer on Kartridge, PS4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Steam, Speed Brawl throws players into a balletic symphony of lightning-quick combat through the dank locales of a dystopian London in an all-out bloodsport. Filled with armored brutes, vicious aliens, and outlandish bosses, the world of Speed Brawl captures the humor and over-the-top action from over three decades of cult classic cinema.

The fast and hard-hitting combat in Speed Brawl forces players to maintain momentum while judiciously managing the available energy used to unleash powerful special moves.

Players can upgrade and customize their tag-team of fighters through the acquisition of equipment and unlocking new and improved skills.

"Speed Brawl was inspired in part by the over-the-top action, violence, and dark humor of movies like Rollerball, The Hunger Games, and Starship Troopers,” said Daniel Menard, Producer at Double Stallion. “We always knew we wanted to make a physics-and-fisticuffs experience that would feel like Thundercats or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, about a team of people who go through an extraordinary challenge and realize that fighting as a team is better than fighting alone.“

The game’s campaign can be played as a single or cooperative multiplayer experience the whole way through, both local and online. Furthermore, players can race their friends and players around the world for the best times across the game’s event leaderboards. The environment is furnished with a collection of physics-based contraptions and interactable objects like poles, explosive barrels, boost pads, and deadly circular saws that players can use to dispatch enemies in new and increasingly flashy ways.

“Speed Brawl’s fresh take on the action platformer keeps evolving and surprising throughout the course of the game’s campaign,” said Kevin DuPuy, Director of Production at Kongregate. “Double Stallion has fine-tuned the gameplay to let players be in a constant state of flow, bringing a depth and variety to the combat that allows players to really dig in and define their own unique playstyle. All of this comes together in a stylish and striking package, making it an absolute blast to pick up and play.”

Speed Brawl is coming to Kartridge, PS4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Steam this summer and players can wishlist it on Steam today. You can find additional information about the game at www.speedbrawl.com and get the latest news on the official Facebook and Twitter accounts.
