Yomi 2 - Leaving Early Access!
The road to becoming the best card gamer in Fairview City begins...
Yomi 2 is now officially released on Steam and Epic Games Store!
The Journey
Yomi 2 is a card game many years in the making. David Sirlin, Lead Designer and CEO of Sirlin Games, has been developing and designing fighting games since 2008's Super Street Fighter II: HD Remix. In 2011, he released the original Yomi as a card game emulation of the fighting game genre, which later became a digital release on Steam and fostered a large community of the cross section between card-gamers looking for an alternative to CCGs and fighting game players looking for a new fighter to explore.
We also released Fantasy Strike in 2017, a true-blue fighting game featuring the characters from the Yomi universe that you can play right now for free on Steam, PS4/5 and Nintendo Switch 1/2.
With Yomi 2, we're going back to our board game roots and adding a lot of modern fighting game influences to the original formula. 20 characters (and a few new faces!), a new Gem system to augment your playstyle, and a robust single-player Career mode to practice all these different combinations against a variety of AI opponents with quirky personalities. There's also an online queue, asynchronous play ("Chess-by-mail" mode) and friend matches with a spectator system.
Patch Notes
-None! The July 14th Asynchronous online play mode update was secretly the launch patch ;)
A Big Thanks to our Community
We want to thank our entire community on Discord for sticking with us during Early Access development. Your help with balancing Yomi 2 has helped us get the game out the door and into your hands. We can't thank you enough for your huge support of not just Yomi 2 but everything we decide to do.
Special shoutout to all of our Patrons and testers who have supported Sirlin Games for YEARS at this point. We couldn't have done it without you! Be on the lookout for new pre-release test materials on our Patreon page (we've got something cooking right now, too!)
Developer Livestream
Come hang out with Leontes and check out the Developer Livestream here on Steam at 6:00pm EDT where he'll be going through the Career Mode and showing off the nuances of the game!
