Kluge Interactive, the studio that brought you Synth Riders, announces Final Fury, a classic arcade fighting game reimagined for VR

Coming in 2023, this is Kluge’s next title, taking the solid mechanics and furious pace of a classic arcade fighting game, reimagined as an immersive VR experience and optimized for multiplayer 1v1 fights. The game is set to release on all major VR platforms.

This is not a button masher! Rather than requiring the player to physically punch their opponent, you’ll have to move, relying on your precision and reflexes to chain furious combos, activate special moves via intuitive, in-game controls to defeat your opponent. This is a game that is easy to learn, hard to master, and will get your pulse racing.

In Final Fury, the player views each round from a mixture of first-person view and third person arcade-style perspective which allows for more stylized moves and epic visuals. The game will have a growing roster of fighters, such as Tempest and Glitch, as seen in the announcement trailer, each with their own backstory, home stage visual environment, and music track to highlight their personality. 

“We grew up playing games like Street Fighter and Killer Instinct and wanted to be the first to bring this genre to VR in order to fully immerse ourselves in the fights,” says Abraham Aguero, Creative Director at Kluge.

I've been an avid gamer since I stumbled upon ZORK running in my local Radio Shack in 1980. Ten years later I was working for Sierra Online. Since then I've owned nearly every game system and most of the games to go with them. Not sure if 40+ years of gaming qualifies me to write reviews, but I do it anyway.
