This is why it came as a shock that Riot Games revealed2XKOswill launch with only ten characters.
It felt like a completely different game to the one I played in alpha nine months ago.
However, during the stream, Riot also announced its intentions to launch the game with a small roster.
Three more characters should be announced in the following months.
This wasnt well-received by many players, and its understandable: that number is laughable.
The roster is too small, and players will likely run out of combinations and ideas before long.
2XKO Is Free-To-Play… Is That Enough?
2XKO, as any Riot live-service game, will be free-to-play.
Theres still no information about how much a single skin will cost.
League of Legends has been around since 2009, and Valorant since 2020.
Its also worth saying that many of the devs behind 2XKO are no strangers to fighting games.
On a final note, remember those big rosters I mentioned earlier?
Many of them are composed of existing characters from older games.
We still dont know when 2XKO will be released.
This will run from April 18 to 20.
Tekken 8 was review-bombed shortly after the launch of Season 2.
What is going on, and why do players think Tekken is dead?
