Fantasy Strike Goes Free-to-Play, Adds Two New Characters

Fantasy Strike

Sirlin Games have launched a massive update to their fighting game Fantasy Strike, which includes switching to a free-to-play business model.

Fantasy Strike originally launched in July 2019 for $29.99. This new free-to-play version allows players to use any character, and includes free access to online Casual and Ranked modes, Practice mode, and single matches vs the AI.

There are a number of ways to upgrade your experience, starting with the Core Pack for $19.99 USD. The Core Pack effectively unlocks all the game modes, including Boss Rush, Arcade, Survival, local versus, and the ability to directly challenge friends online.

The $99.99 USD Collector’s Pack includes all the content from the Core Pack, as well as unique skins, the “Party Time” KO effect, a year of Fantasy+, and 13,500 gems. Other aspects of the new free-to-play business model include a cash shop powered by gems and the aforementioned Fantasy+; a monthly subscription service that comes with special perks.

Gems are bought with real money, and can be used to buy the game’s large array of new cosmetic items that were added as part of the update. Fantasy+, which is also paid for with gems, gives players access to a replay feature, master costumes, double XP, and a green nametag in-game.

Finally, the update introduces two new fighters, Chancellor Quince and General Onimaru. You can find a full rundown of the update here, and the trailer for the update below.
