Xuandou Zhiwang, Chinese Free to Play fighting game (Currently in closed beta)

http://xd.qq.com/webplat/info/news_version3/1490/2083/2084/2086/m2009/201210/177961.shtml

Jade Studios announces a new tournament season for Xuan Dou Zhi Wang. Open to all Telecom beta players, this tournament is set to take place on October 27-28 and November 3-4. The qualifying players will attend the TGA2012 Grand Prix finals in Shanghai for a chance at the grand prize of 30,000元 (about $5,000). Contrary to the Summer tournament season, this Winter season will be a 3v3 tournament making players have a team instead of 1v1. Finals will most likely be streamed via Tencent Games Arena Live starting on November 10 with finals taking place on November 11. I’ll try to post as much information as I can as it becomes available. If you’re interested in seeing the current high level play of Xuan Dou, this will definitely be a great time to do it.

02 Kim makes his return.

Lol, her final combo is EXACTLY the same as Juri’s super in SFxTK. Hilarious.
Do they have ONE original move at least?

Still, the game looks good.

Personally I think it’s somewhat impressive how the entire game is crafted from borrowed animations.

There are some pretty creative applications.

… That’s called Mugen dude.

Well at least Flip Bucket characters actually play different than their source material counterparts making them interesting designs instead of MUGEN taking Iori’s entire moveset exactly with no changes what so ever and putting it on Homer Simpson.

Thx Grimm mos def gotta see this ill be checking back for more info

More like Orochi EX Homer Simpson With The Power of The Flames.

I really need to play this game.

It looks so cool.

Needs a Geese Howard character tho.

If they made a character with a movelist like Real Bout 2 Geese, I’d be all over it.

Or better yet, Rick Strowd. There’s no boxer yet rite?

A Blue Mary style character would be great too.

Right on all accounts and I wouldn’t mind seeing such characters get in. Basically right now, we’re waiting on the two guitar players to get put in to see how they play, I assume are coming soon. After that there’s going to be (judging by the current character select screen) 4 more characters on their way. If anything, I think a boxer is just about guaranteed, because it’s the only blatantly obvious style that isn’t represented at the moment.

Taekwondo Chick looks cool to me, those juggles man… it’s like… some 2k2+CvS2+NGBC+XI Kim shit on crack.

Well, I was referring to insane hybrid Mugen characters. There’s a lot of them like Balrog (Boxer) with a counter and a fireball and shit. I’m still hype for this game but come on. This is legit Mugen.

This is legit Mugen. LMAO pleeze tell me your not serious

Short combo video featuring some of the more combo friendly characters to show off what people can do in the latest patch. Lee Won is absent because I already covered how stupid she is.

Do you still need a key to play or is it open now?

Still closed beta.

New character incoming. Apparently named Shirley.

And the introduction to the game mall. From the description, the game isn’t going to be pay to win or pay to play, if you want to buy characters instead of going through the in game unlock requirements you have a choice. It also looks like a hint towards the new CoolB outfit.

How are they going to make their money exactly? It’s 2D so I don’t see much room for cosmetics to purchase.

I don’t think it’s about making money. Also, if you don’t think there’s going to be much room for cosmetics, you haven’t been keeping up with this game.

Every character has 5 slots for alternate outfits.

?!?!?!

Also what’s the name of the song in the latest vid you uploaded?

Edit 2: So I feel like playing this again but my client won’t update for some reason. What do I do?
