Play the sequel of the famous Punch Club and participate in epic battles once again. This time you are going to play for a young man who still lives in his mother’s house. However, it seems that it’s finally time to go out and show everyone that you are worth more than that.
In the second part of Punch Club the action is going to take place in the future. Now everything is neon and there are plenty of modern machines everywhere. Although, people stayed the same and crime lives on the streets as it did twenty years before.
So, in this game you are going to dive into the corrupt world without money and training. Your main aim in Punch Club is to fight your way to the Upper town by increasing your citizen rating. The only way to do it is to become successful, so you have no choice other than become a professional fighter.
Meanwhile, you can also use your physical strength for working, either in one of the restaurants or by fulfilling more peculiar jobs, such as helping mafia or police. As a nice bonus, work will bring you a humble amount of money that you can spend on food or other useful objects. Moreover, in Punch Club if you work for somebody long enough, you may unlock special items or characteristics.
However, in this game you are fully dependent on time. Every single action you perform consumes some time and you have to calculate when you should go home and train and when to go to work. Note that in Punch Club even travelling takes time, so if you need to arrive somewhere urgently, you may fork out to go by bus.
As in the previous Punch Club, the gameplay includes taking up training in order to raise your characteristics. Three main ones stayed the same, so you still have strength, agility and stamina. Although, the methods that you can apply for improving them have significantly changed.
Now you can not only train physically, but also use special machines which passively increase one of your characteristics. In addition, the game makes it possible to get permanent upgrades, if your rating among the gangs or police is high enough. And of course, in Punch Club you need to unlock the techniques and stick to a particular fighting school.
When you feel ready to participate in the battle, go to the gym and choose an appropriate match. Pick up the opponent thoughtfully, as the game considers all your wins and defeats which affects your overall rating.
