WayForward's action adventures

If you enjoy colorful action with brawling, platforming and light horror, you will find varied WayForward picks to match your mood for the evening.

If you like bright characters and direct arcade-style play, these WayForward releases give you several ways to stay moving. River City Girls 2 lets you clear city blocks alone or with a partner using punches and found objects, while Shantae and the Seven Sirens leans toward searching linked areas and opening new paths. LUNARK adds a quieter sci-fi change of pace with sprinting, wall scaling and firing at guards. You get quick movement, clear goals and lots of color across all three.
