In case you missed our last post, Fiction Factory Games has teamed up again with PQube to release an all-new Arcade Spirits adventure, Arcade Spirits: The New Challengers. Check out our launch trailer below:

Continue your story and head on down to Good Clean Fun, your home for everything pizza, laundry, and arcade related! Created by couple Ben and Matt, this trio-stablishment is a one-of-a-kind hang out spot for you and your future team. Meet the arcade whiz kids that frequent GCF, Domino, Grace, Jynx, Locksley, Rhapsody, and Zapper.

All of these candidates have the potential to become inseparable friends, or even romantic partners. In Arcade Spirits: The New Challengers you have the option to choose exactly how your friendships develop. Your handy AI companion, Iris, will ask you about your preferences. Are you actively looking for love, open to the idea of a potential relationship, or just here for the thrill of the arcade?

Personality is everything in Arcade Spirits: The New Challengers. As you progress through the story you'll be faced with several decisions that influence your growing personality, reflected in the traits Quirky, Steady, Kindly, Gutsy, and Flexible. Your decisions will not only determine how well you get on with other characters, but will also influence your skills in battle.

Arcade Spirits: The New Challengers also has a wonderfully diverse character creator complete with an extensive list of body types, pronouns, clothing, and accessories. Changed your mind about your arcade avatar? No worries! Make adjustments at the end of every story chapter.

And remember, for those of you that have completed the original Arcade Spirits, you can import your save and see unique interactions, cameos, easter eggs and more based on your previous actions!

Arcade Spirits: The New Challengers is out NOW!

Arcade Spirits 2.0 contains a bucketful of polish to shine things up real nice. Nothing major, but you'll get a better experience overall.

• Fixed all reported typos. (If you spot any left, let us know.)
  
• Clarified a few unclear or misleading decisions. (A little rewording goes a long way.)
  
• Improved visual impairment mode support. (Tap V key to turn on self-voicing. The character creator's been expanded for this mode.)
  
• Adjusted language in a few places. (Some lines were unintentionally dodgy and problematic.)
  
• Swapped placeholder sequel teases with full references to Arcade Spirits: The New Challengers. (Didja know we're making a sequel? Hit http://www.arcadespirits.com for more deets.)

Hey, folks -- MidBoss let us into the cool kids club and now we're happily a part of the Summer of Pride steam sale! That means you get the same amount of arcade goodness at a low, low price. Save your quarters!

But there's lots more inclusive games available in this particular event. Check out the summer of Pride 2020 games!
