Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

動かしてるだけで楽しい。 「日本人とマッチしない」というレビューが多いですが、日本人はDiscordに引きこもってるので野良では基本マッチしません。[url=discord.com/invite/YWW8apprKW] Rivals Japan [/url]←ここで夜な夜な対戦してます。
Rivals 2 is probably the best platform fighter that's not made by Nintendo out there, maybe even as good as Smash games themselves. The game's really well polished, feels great to play, has great feedback and that perfect power to each hit characters make. The roster is diverse with heavies, floaties, speedsters, and everyone in between, all of who feel great to play. All characters are available for free to every new player and it's pretty easy to find a character that feels good to play to anyone. Every fighter has quite a lot of depth to them, meaning there's always ways to improve and master a character. Also I want to give credit to the devs for making an actually player-friendly live-service game. First off, the game has seasonal events, which are basically battle passes, BUT all of the events are 100% free for every player AND at any point you can switch between any of the previous events, meaning there's absolutely no FOMO involved. Also, the premium currency can be easily earned by leveling up events, or by leveling up the characters by just playing them. I played Rivals 1 before Rivals 2 came out but didn't really get hooked on it, so I put off Rivals 2 until very recently which was a mistake to be honest. The thing that made me finally get Rivals 2 was the announcement of Mina The Hollower coming to this game in 2027 (It's actually bigger than Sora in Smash, trust me). I wish I bought this game sooner, it's actually really really good and you should give it a shot if you even remotely like platform fighters as a genre. The only thing I wish was a liiiiittle better is performance on Steam Deck. It's noticeably dropping some frames in 4 player casual matches when a lot of things happen, and the devs are planning to add 8 player matches in the future, so hopefully they optimize that mode pretty well.
Fun game! Beginner friendly mechanically, good for people looking to get into platform fighting games. Kinda cheesy, kinda spammy, but good time especially with friends.
new update has annoying announcer and every time I try and change his audio settings to either 1 or 0 to not hear him it turns off character audio as well, idk what's up
