About This Game

Your keyboard is your fists

Typers Combat 2: Type Harder is a 3D fighting game where every correct keystroke throws a punch. Left-hand keys swing the left fist, right-hand keys swing the right. Both fighters type at the same time, all the time. There are no turns and no pauses.

Type faster than your rival and your blows land clean. Fall behind and you are blocking, but you are still fighting back. Finish a line to throw a heavy ender. Make a typo and you open a counter window for the other side. Build your combo from C CLACKING all the way up to SSS SUPREME TYPIST.

Finish them

Win the match and end it in style. Over 90 cinematic executions, each with its own camera work, acted faces and a pool of kills: heads pop, limbs come off, bodies are cut in half and ragdoll in pieces, and the blood stays on the floor for the rest of the match.

X-ray executions slow the moment of impact to a crawl and show the bones inside crack and shatter.

Gore can be switched off in Settings.

Story: The QWERTY Circuit

Six chapters on rails, in first person, through towns, castles, villages, camps and caves. Enemies walk up carrying words. Type them down before they swing. Duel named fighters, daze them and pummel them while you type as many words as you can. Fill your super meter, open the super wheel in bullet time, and type the super's name to unleash it.

At the end of every chapter a boss is waiting: Two-Finger Terry, Caps Lock Carl, Autocorrect Annie, the Home Row Monk, Sticky Key Steve and QWERTY Prime. Block their attack strings by typing each blow before it lands, break their health bars one by one, and type the finisher.

Play your way

Not a fast typist yet? Switch Settings > Accessibility > Input to KEYS or CONTROLLER, and every prompt in the single-player modes becomes a short sequence of W, A, S, D and Space presses, or gamepad buttons with the right icons for your pad. Story, all 10 Challenges, VS CPU, Training and Endless play this way. Ranked matches stay typing only.

• Gore can be switched off, and so can screen shake

• Separate volume for music, effects and voices

• Pick the CPU's typing speed, and let Story's adaptive difficulty follow your pace

18 arenas that break

Fight in a warehouse, a tire shop, a hospital, a crypt, a dragon cave, Olympus, a neon alley, an arena packed with a cheering crowd and more. Knock your opponent down and they fly into whatever stands behind them: racks collapse, props scatter, rocks crack and statues come crashing down.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Typers Combat 2 contains frequent, graphic fighting violence. Matches can end in cinematic executions showing blood, dismemberment, decapitation and X-ray views of bones breaking. Story mode and the bonus stages also show blood and ragdolling bodies. Gore can be turned off in the game's Settings.
