WayForward isn’t quite ready to provide a blowout of information for Mighty Switch Force 2, but director Austin Ivansmith did share a few nuggets on the latest “Sup, Holmes?” show.

Mighty Switch Force 2 will see the return of Patricia Wagon. But this time around, it seems as though she could be heading down a new career path. Jake “Virt” Kaufman will be in charge of the game’s soundtrack once again.

For now, Mighty Switch Force 2 has a tentative Q1/Q2 release date. Pricing will be “reasonable” and “in the ballpark of the original”.
