The road to becoming the best card gamer in Fairview City begins... Yomi 2 is now officially released on Steam and Epic Games Store!
The Journey
Yomi 2 is a card game many years in the making. David Sirlin, Lead Designer and CEO of Sirlin Games, has been developing and designing fighting games since 2008's Super Street Fighter II: HD Remix. In 2011, he released the original Yomi as a card game emulation of the fighting game genre, which later became a digital release on Steam and fostered a large community of the cross section between card-gamers looking for an alternative to CCGs and fighting game players looking for a new fighter to explore.
We also released Fantasy Strike in 2017, a true-blue fighting game featuring the characters from the Yomi universe that you can play right now for free on Steam, PS4/5 and Nintendo Switch 1/2.
With Yomi 2, we're going back to our board game roots and adding a lot of modern fighting game influences to the original formula. 20 characters (and a few new faces!), a new Gem system to augment your playstyle, and a robust single-player Career mode to practice all these different combinations against a variety of AI opponents with quirky personalities. There's also an online queue, asynchronous play ("Chess-by-mail" mode) and friend matches with a spectator system.
Patch Notes
-None! The July 14th Asynchronous online play mode update was secretly the launch patch ;)
A Big Thanks to our Community
We want to thank our entire community on Discord for sticking with us during Early Access development. Your help with balancing Yomi 2 has helped us get the game out the door and into your hands. We can't thank you enough for your huge support of not just Yomi 2 but everything we decide to do.
Special shoutout to all of our Patrons and testers who have supported Sirlin Games for YEARS at this point. We couldn't have done it without you! Be on the lookout for new pre-release test materials on our Patreon page (we've got something cooking right now, too!)
Developer Livestream
Come hang out with Leontes and check out the Developer Livestream here on Steam at 6:00pm EDT where he'll be going through the Career Mode and showing off the nuances of the game!

Thanks so much for being a fan. We hope to see you on the server!

Yomi 2 is a fighting game in card form. Learn your character, practice combos, and read the opponent's tendencies. Yomi captures the feel of fighting games such as Street Fighter and Fantasy Strike and was created by a lead designer of both.
Cards represent your moves: attacks, blocks, throws, dodges, and abilities. For example, throws beat blocks:
Manage your hand to keep your options open while also trying to build up the right cards to pull off a big combo:

Fighting System
- Exchange! You can exchange a card in your hand with one in your discard pile each turn as long as both have the exchange symbol. Will you use this to build stronger combos or to cover your weaknesses?
- Gems. Pick a gem to augment your character. Each gem gives you different special moves and abilities as well as a once-per-game "gem storm" that can turn the tides to your favor.
- High and low attacks. Just like in a fighting game, some attacks must be blocked high while others must be blocked low. These “mixups” are especially effective if your opponent is knocked down.
- Projectiles. “Zoner” characters can build up their hand size while throwing relatively low risk fireball-type moves.
- Super moves. Build up super meter that you can spend on powerful super moves. To get super meter, you can discard pairs or you can land "chain combos" of consecutive attacks.
Features
- 20 characters.
- 6 gems to augment characters.
- Single player career mode where you visit numerous card-playing venues, fight regulars, compete in tournaments, and try to become the best Yomi player in the city. (And the most popular on fake social media!)
- Single player vs AI with four difficulty levels.
- Online synchronous play as well as asynchronous play.
- Pass-and-play mode for local play against a friend.
- Tutorial to get you started.
