Set to release on January 23rd, Fighting Force and Fighting Force 2 will be dropping for PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and PC platforms. Originally released on PS1 in 1997, Fighting Force is a popular brawler that was developed by Core Design, the studio behind the original Tomb Raider. Although the response to the game was mixed, it did well enough to get a sequel in 1999 in the form of Fighting Force 2. Unfortunately, this sequel ended up doing worse than its predecessor, which ended up killing off the Fighting Force series as a whole. For those who have longed to go back to these throwback beat ’em up games, though, it will soon be easier to do so than ever.
Coming by way of Limited Run Games, the Fighting Force Collection will contain both entries in the series in a single package. This bundle was announced by LRG in June of 2024, but news on when it would release has been virtually nonexistent over the past year. Finally, Limited Run returned this week and revealed that the game’s digital launch would happen in just a few short days. Physical editions of Fighting Force Collection, which went up for pre-orders quite a while back, will then ship in the coming months.
