One of the most requested features in the original Slayin’ was to be able to play with a friend. On mobile, that would have been pretty tricky, but on a console it seems like a no brainer. So in the spirit of old school console and arcade games, Slayin 2 lets you play any area with a friend at your side. The result is an experience that can be way more frantic but also way less punishing.
If one person falls in battle, the other player has the ability to revive them, as long as they have some health to share. Reviving takes half of the living players health and transfers it to their fallen friend. This means choosing the right time to revive is important otherwise you might end up with two players in danger of dying.
Getting this feature right on the Switch has been a big task. But as we squash the last few bugs, our hope it to have something people can enjoy gathered together around their tv (or tiny Switch screen in some random public place). 🙂
