Astro Duel 2 is a space battle that combines spaceship dogfights with on-foot fights. Play starts with piloting your spaceship but instantly transitions to on-foot battles when you enter gravity zones. It stands out for this mix of spaceship shooting and pilot platforming both of which are frantic and highly skilled.
Item 1 of 3
Astro Duel 2 is a sci-fi combat game that blurs the line between top-down space shooter and platform fighter. Fly into gravity zones that instantly absorb your ship and switch controls to platforming action. Each of the ships has a different play style and abilities like Warp, Drill and Reflect. As you play you can pick up items like mines, shields, shotguns and grenades. These, combined with the fully-destructible levels offer lots of opportunities for creative combat.
You can play competitively or cooperatively with up to 3 players to battle through the levels. Or there's Versus mode where 6 players can compete, or include bots to fill up the roster. There are lots of ways to customise matches or other modes to try like Cash Grab where you defend or steal the safe as a team and then buy equipment between rounds.
The result is a game that is fast, frantic and varied. The combination of spaceship and space pilot combat creates lots of new opportunities to outfox your opponents - or at least to die trying.
