We're a bit late to the party, but who would we be if we didn't report on a brand new fighting game coming out.
Duels of Fortune is a fighting game developed by Cosmic Hat Games. It is currently in Early Access, with plants to release the 1.0 version in early-to-mid 2025.
Despite such far off release date, they already have 17 characters, Vs. modes against both players and CPU, training mode, and various single player modes. Better yet, it's entire free right now. Cosmic Hat plans to make the full release a paid product, but unless their plans change, it will remain completely free throughout early access.
The game itself seems to be at least partially inspired by anime fighters, which is especially evident with the air dashes and the burst system that's very reminiscent of Guilty Gear.
There's also a distinctly comedic tone to it all, which helps to set it apart among many other fighting games.
