Hopefully the game picks up a larger player base in the future.

While I did see a few private rooms, I could not join those, and my attempts at making public rooms saw nobody join in most instances. Unfortunately, I had issues finding anybody online to play with. Knight Squad 2 has cross-platform enabled online, so players from PC, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch can all play together.

Creating your own room gives you the option to either make it a private, password protected room, or to leave it open for anybody to join. If playing online you are given the option to hop into a random game, join a private room using a room code, or create your own room. Free-for-all and Squads have game types specific to their modes while Duos does not. Local will allow you to choose your characters, the bot difficulty for the remaining spaces, and the team size/game type which has three options: free-for-all, squads, or duos.

Upon beginning the game you are asked whether you want to play a local or online game. Thankfully, this is the area where Knight Squad 2 excels. The main differences you notice while playing are the Knight’s colors, as that is the most effective way to keep track of where you are during the incredibly chaotic matches.In a game that has little more to offer than mini-games, it is important that those mini-games are fun. There’s a knight named Salmon, who is apparently a great swimmer a knight named Savior who is a beast with swords, a knight named Selfie that…likes to take selfies? There are also knights imbued with specific abilities like the power to harness lightning, the power to create shockwaves, etc – although again, these abilities aren’t really used much in game.

Only 8 are available when you boot up the game, with the other 8 being hidden behind various challenges, including one unlocked by entering the infamous Konami code on the menu screen.Įach knight has their own unique personality and specialty, although most of these personality traits are more to allow players to feel they are given a choice rather than something that affects the actual gameplay. The catch is, not all knights are available from the start. To break up the possible monotony from competing in the same – albeit varied – games, there are 16 knights you can play as.

Simple Match allows you to choose the exact game type you want to play as well as set the specifics of the match, while Tourney mode will throw a variety of mini-games at you at the end of which the player with the most wins will be crowned the victor. There are two modes to choose from: Tourney or Simple Match. If 8 players are not available then the game will replace the empty spots with bots of variable difficulty. Knight Squad 2 is playable solo or via either local or online multiplayer with up to 8 players. That said, Knight Squad 2 is an incredibly fun, if somewhat shallow, multiplayer extravaganza. I normally review single player campaign based games, so I’ll admit that I struggle a bit when it comes to these types of experiences.
Knight squad game series#
It is always a bit strange to review what is essentially a “party game.” There is no campaign or story to speak of, only a series of local or online multiplayer matches.
