The visuals look better and come with aunique art stylethat makes the game different.

Although the characters will be in a modern persona, they will possess the core elements that League players are familiar with. The duo mode will have co-op mode for players to enjoy with their friends on the same team. We also see a lot of unique visual indicators in the new gameplay showcase, such as hit counters and Hard knockdown signs.

Even the controls will be streamlined, and it will be easier to understand new players. Senior Director Tom Cannon also mentions they want to bring the enjoyment of IRL arcade machine enjoyment to the virtual world. He further mentions the game will be focused on the values of FGC and take feedback from the community over the next year.

2XKO will also be at Evo Japan in April for a further showcase and exclusive overview. You can apply for the 2XKO playtest through this link. As of now, we know the game will befree-to-play, similar to League of Legends and Valorant.
