River City Girls 2 has now launched worldwide, and we have a trailer to celebrate. WayForward and Arc System Works are showing off the beat ’em up game for a final time.

In case you need a refresher about River City Girls 2, we have the following overview:

River City Girls 2 release date

Original: River City Girls 2 appears to have a release date in the west, and according to an eShop listing, it will be launching next week. The store page has it down for December 15, 2022.

The game just came out in Japan a few days ago. WayForward recently said it needed “a bit more time” for the North American and European launch “in order to deliver the best, most full-featured experience possible.” However, the company said that the overseas release is still expected by the end of 2022. Obviously there are only a few weeks remaining in the year, but assuming the eShop listing is correct, we’ll be seeing the title very soon.

River City Girls 2 Provie

WayForward is back with another character trailer for River City Girls 2, and has now shown off Provie.

She’s said to be a “block-busting breakdancer” with speed, agility, and numerous dance attacks. Provie will be taming up with Misako and Kyoko to battle yakuza and find her missing best friend.
