WayForward have announced that the River City Girls 2 DLC focused on characters from the classic beat-em-up, Double Dragon, has been delayed. It will now release in an undisclosed release date in fall 2024. They would’ve initially released the DLC in summer 2024.
The press release describes the DLC as follows:
“The Double Dragon DLC, meanwhile…adds even more hard-hitting, bone-breaking, knuckle-busting action to fan-favorite open-world beat-’em-up River City Girls 2. No longer relegated to their previous roles as dojo masters, the iconic Double Dragon brothers, Billy and Jimmy Lee, are ready to kick yakuza butt as premium playable characters with unique movesets and full story integration featuring all-new dialogue by returning voice actors Dan Avidan (Billy) and Arin Hanson (Jimmy) of the Game Grumps.
Additionally, the DLC adds a new Double Dragon rap song performed by Hanson and Avidan (with music by series composer Megan McDuffee) plus new dojo master Boro, while a new free update to all players delivers a new Double Dragon themed motion comic, two new shops with new items (including the “Season’s Beatings” seasonal shop), playable character color palettes, and more. The DLC and free update will be coming to all platforms for which River City Girls 2 is currently available, including Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox, and PC.”
