Online Mode and PS4 Support Announced for Nippon Marathon 2

The update you've all been waiting for is here! Online matchmaking, PS4 support and custom character skins are coming to Nippon Marathon 2! [previewyoutube=7vfUH2HXPx4;full][/previewyoutube] Online Mode Play just for fun in Casual Versus or try to be the best in the world by improving your rank in Competitive Versus. You'll be glad to know the Go-Go Trolley Bowling and L.O.B.S.T.E.R party games are making a return with online capability too. This is a game-changer for fans of online party games. We've felt that Nippon Marathon has always been the closest thing to a Takeshi's Castle (MXC) or Total Wipeout video game, and the inclusion of online support will bring the game to a much wider audience and be fun for everyone to play! Kickstarter Exclusive Custom Skins We've previously mentioned this before, but the in-game shop will be stocked full of custom items and character skins for you to unlock, hopefully adding to the Nippon Marathon experience. Backers will automatically receive exclusive "BAKA" branded skins for all main characters and an exclusive nameplate for use online. A preview of these can be seen in the video above. YAY! PS4 Support Announced The two-person team has been inundated with calls to bring Nippon Marathon 2 to Playstation following the first game's success on PS+ Japan earlier this year. Fans will be happy to know that Onion Soup Interactive has added support for the platform to its development schedule. Please share share share this with everyone you know! I know a lot of fans were holding out for this one, so please share this news with everyone you can. We want to shout from the rooftops that NIPPON MARATHON 2 HAS ONLINE MODE! Share now:

Thanks again for your support! So that's everything for now! Amy & Andy

San! Ni! Ichi! Hajime!!! Stretch your muscles and embark upon the ultimate marathon of Japan in a raucous ragdoll party multiplayer racer where anything can happen. Hurdle barrels, outrun Shiba Inu and dive out of the paths of bicycles - all while chucking fruit at your opponents and dashing across planks precariously balanced over waterfalls - in an unreal experience that must be played to be believed.

Features

Four-player madness!
You can’t spell Nippon Marathon without ‘P’, ‘A’, ‘R’, ‘T’ and *checks letters* ‘I’, we suppose… Solo play is supported, but grab up to four pads and enjoy the supreme silliness of gaming’s greatest marathon.

See all of Japan!
Cross the entirety of the land of Nippon in a series of creative courses spanning busy city streets, village lanes, bustling markets, mountaintop shrines, supermarkets and even unsafe sake distilleries!

Wacky characters!
Go toe-to-toe with some of the coolest contestants who ever did, er… contest! Lobster-man J DARWIN, onesie-obsessive Elizabeth Nishibori, school uniform fan Zenbei “Xen Bae” and the completely normal Snuguru Maestro are among the challengers vying for the podium!

Epic pratfalls!
Swinging poles! Giant face-slapping fish! Cyclists! Shiba Inu! Panes of glass! Traffic! False doors! Barrels! Rolling beams! Wobbly planks! Flying fruit! More Shiba Inu! EARTHQUAKES!!!!! Dodge and dive over the lot or suffer the painful and embarrassing consequences of physics-based collisions…

Tons of surprises!
You never know what will happen next in Nippon Marathon. Perhaps you’ll find time for an impromptu spot of slot machine fun? Maybe a news anchor will jetpack in to interview you on the racetrack? Heck, anything is possible…

Drop-in/drop-out play!
Need a bathroom break to squeeze pineapple juice out of your foam lobster claws? Random pedestrian passing by your couch and wants to play? Whatever the cause, hop in and out for the ultimate, flexible party get-together!
