Congrats on the announcement! I've never enjoyed Cardio work until I played "Thrill of the Fight!" Though I'm 100% sure you've already mapped out your development goals, here is my wishlist of improvements: Feints and reactions to faints from AI. More lateral movement from AI, and stepping out of range -- footwork playing more of a role in the game essentially. Inside fighting within the clinch. More distinctive styles per A.I. opponent. Your "trainer" giving you tips between rounds. Being able to punch through the guard and get punched through the guard depending on velocity, distance, angle and other factors. Accumulated Damage to areas effecting how a fight progresses. More Sound design that gives you subtle hints AI is getting tired. (heavy breathing, etc). It would be amazing if the Oculus microphone could detect fatigue based on rate of breathing which the AI could attempt to capitalize on. To add to the previous comment, subtle visual cues to the opponent's state when hurt, confident, or fatigued. Things like being more flat-footed (less bouncy), grimacing, open mouth breathing, smiling, taunting, more clinching or dropping of guard etc... Pad training routines. A guided warmup. Invert opponents from Orthodox to Southpaw checkbox in settings.

I'd love to see realistic ragdoll knockouts

Please don’t neglect the single player element by just focusing on the multiplayer.

I heard 2 is going to have pads training. That is what I am most excited about. But I would also like the ability to watch back my fight so I can see how I am moving. And it would be cool if I can watch in VR - as an audience member, or from the ref’s position. And I have the ability to teleport around and see the fight from different angles. Maybe save these fights and watch again later.

My first time playing part one this year and wow , what a workout , I cant wait for part 2

Hopefully we could see walkouts and character creation happen

Omg was randomly searching for updates on TOTF2 and I’m happy this game got a bigger team. Alongside the original developer, it’s only gonna get better!!

How is this not get over 1 million views?

I am so ready to finally play this, I've never waited for a game this long, I feel like I've checked for a release date every month for years

Dam, Halfbrick is evolving.

This will be a hopefully be super easy buy for me, love the first game and still use it. I'll be holding off till I see it's not stuffed full of micro transactions though. This could be a really special VR game and there are things people have been suggesting and asking for for a long time now. All the things that would push this to the next level are already in the comments!

Man I've been waiting for this. At one point in my life I lost possibilities and interests to exercise at all, but then I bought Oculus Quest 2 from my friend and found Thrill of the Fight. Honestly I got into really good shape by playing Thrill of the Fight 3-6 times per a week for 6 months.

I am so happy to hear this announcement. I’ve played the first game and lost 40 pounds. It has changed my life. Can’t wait to play.

Can't wait, totf is one of the VR games i've spent the most time playing 🥊

Like if your here in 2024 heavily anticipating this game

Part 1 is easily the best vr boxing game out.

This is going to be great, I've been using VR boxing 7 days a week for over a year (with the exception of strained back and neck a few months in) really important to take it slow if you are older hahaha

Whole year and no updates😭

Looking forward to this. And I must say, the CGI presenter in this video is super realistic!

I cant wait for this Thrill of the Fight is one of my favourite vr games and has kept me fit while working from home.

I'd like the ability to do fights in passthrough/mixed-reality (especially in colour on Quest 3), a larger variety of training modes and more easily executable uppercuts. Very excited for this sequel.

This game keeps me on the quest It’s been really integrated into my workout and helped me practice my basic reflexes

When I start this game, I get on a step for the photo shot so I can fight guys way bigger than me.

Not even alpha or test footage??

Update please

Full body tracking is coming soon, would love to see a VR Kickboxing game too!!!! Maybe a future spin off :-D

What's the status now? I can't wait !

You dont even know how long I've waited to hear it announced

More realistic stadium for championship fight would be cool too.

Best game ever for exercise. Please make 2. Pretty please. thank you sir.

I’ll pay whatever it costs sir thank you

Please don't make the game feel arcade-y. I don't want cartoon graphics with goofy punch out characters

headbutts, back of the head shots and lowblows !!

I didn’t know you guys made that game! Honestly it’s a real workout and it genuinely helps with trying to make the player think carefully about how they approach an opponent.

Can’t wait when it launches!

It’s really funny that in the footage of them showing someone playing on the headset, the strap isn’t even on right😅

I hope you have mitt work in the new game

Sick! I know this game will deliver because how strong the first is. The day after my first session I felt like I was in a car accident from using different muscles. Now I can easily do 10 rounds.

This was one of the first game I got and always loved it. Got the Quest 3 recently and the mixed reality really makes the game brand new. Things i'd love for a sequel: Improved graphics if possible, nothing wrong with the old ones but the more realistic the better. Not sure if you can use some of the new AI techniques on facial mapping etc. I've always enjoyed damage levels on the boxers, so swelling and broken noses, closed up eyes would be great. Equally, would love damage to "me" sure you could make one eye blurry or have blood / swelling effect on one or both eyes as the other player makes damage. Multiplayer is ace, but I think the single player experience is more important, its a great fitness app. Be also good for a custom opponent boxer, where you can try and make famous boxers as well and maybe a community download area, where you can download other peoples created opponents. This could be a good way of getting around boxer licenses etc.

Allow for styles like drunken fist , Philly shell, peep a boo to be better traced and more receptive for different experiences and players

Hey! I just bought Thrill Of The Fight 1 tonight and it's absolutely fantastic! The first 2 fights were easy and I was worried. I was targeting a specific section of the ribs over and over on the second fight and it was so awesome to see realistic damage to the part of the body. In the third match things got more challenging and I found holes in my defensive game. I still won but I was very happy it got a bit harder. I'm going to play this game as much as I possibly can. I'm excited to start training in the game tomorrow to learn more secrets to winning. I hope these secrets will make me a better boxer in real life. I felt amazing after it and huge ammounts of sweat came off me. thank you so much to your team! When I bought it and played it tonight I realized I don't need any other boxing game. sure I'll enjoy demos but with this sequel announcement I am looking forward to see what happens next. I really appreciate how cheap the game was considering its the best one of the lot as I am a father so I rarely buy myself anything nice. Fantastic value for money! I know its going to get harder and harder and I am excited to embrace the grind with new strategies!

Amazing news - I’ve been playing daily for 9 months and still love it! Can’t wait

Half brick is the best i remember playing jet pack joy ride and fruit ninja when i was younger some of my favourite games so i was so amazed that yous made thrill of the fight aswell went from making my favorite child hood mobile games to making my favorite vr games keep up the good work

This is the only game which I play in my oculus during almost 2 years. This game is my portable gym. Half an hour of play quite enough to get very good training. I'm waiting for second version of it.

Still waiting 😢

Is there a release date/ window?

This boxing game is what I dreamed of when playing in VR, I still play it on a regular basis. I got this game in 2018 and I still love it to this day. No game like this game has made me sweat and increased my heart rate. I hope you guys improve upon the first game and add new things and have fun! I will look out for the updates! :D

Hurry Up guys

I can't wait!

That's probably my favourite game in vr. Also will be great to add some tournament system to multiplayer.

Man I can't wait, when do you think the release will be

I hope they add avatars in, and customization aswel, so i can customize my look, boxing trunks and boots, and maybe add some tattoos on my guy, or be able to change my gloves

First, when? Second, my complaint with the first TOF is that the boxers never adjust. As a south paw, I can throw a straight left and right cross and land them every time without fail. It would be great if the boxers adjusted to what I was doing and made it more difficult. Also, after beating every boxer down to the canvas it gets kind of old. Great work out, but not enough variety. An update feature with new boxers added, even at an additional cost, would be great.

Great stuff!

defiantly can't wait for this. especily on Quest 2

Make sure to have the sparring partner custom options be even more customizable. I'd also love if it was possible to up the aggression level in the current game to an unrealistic amount instead of having max remain at 200% only. The more customization there is available the more people can practice specific things for boxing. Also make sure to leave the emphasis on performance as an option leaving visuals as a second.

TotF is one of the VR games I absolutely play the most. This was such a smart move by Halfbrick and I can't wait to see what they can do to build out a pro circuit. Honestly, I hope they look at titles like Boxing Star, on mobile, to provide not only more characters but mixing and matching body parts, gloves, trunks, and improving damage and defense by unlocking equipment and training. TotF could be one of the best VR titles and with Quest 3 that also opens up the ability for pass through and sparring with fighters in your actual living room.

I live under a rock. I had no idea of the announcement.

you should make the gloves customizable like different colors!

I'm interested to see what direction this will go in for pvp compared to Era of Combat

it would be cool for multiplayer if every weekend have tournaments where if u win u can get a belt and show off in fights

this game helps me stay in shape. This game makes me healthier. Good job on shaping the world, I hope thrill of the fight 2 is legendary

The main reason thrill of the fight is the best game for workout is because it makes you hit with strenght, would be good to feel when you hit good or bad by a sound or color by strenght (now is only green or light blue). And also, and important is to gain points or level of your character, is a way to feel that you are progressing in your workouts or having more hitting % etc. Playing online would be awesome too.

How far away from release and I’m buzzing can’t wait

I'm excited! but for the love of god please don't mess this up! 😆 This is the one VR game I keep coming back too. Multiplayer is great, but please do not forget what got the game where it is. The single player is important. Improve the ai and mix things up a bit. The characters can be more creative and if you could give us a choice to randomize their ai and appearance that would go a long way for replayability. I'll play regardless because it is a great workout, but still, spice it up. :) Multiplayer will be interesting but I don't know how much lag, play space, and random arm flailing jokers will affect the game... So just my opinion, make sure the game is solid even without it! Thank you for making a sequel!!!

Amazing game! IM WAITING FOR THIS ! When?

Can we get a release date please

wow i cant wait to get my vr so i can buy this, that will help by making that i wont need to go to the gym

Yes finally! practice time 💪🏿

It would be cool to see your own record against opponents. I want to see what my win rate % is currently but can't.

I been waiting so long 😂

Probably will come out when the Meta quest 3 comes out

God I'm so excited

omg thank you!!!!

Any word on estimated date????

I’m intrigued to learn what would work best against other people. Jabs & Feints? In & Outs?

When does ist release ? My brother and I wanna fight against each other 😂😂😂 I can’t wait till it’s coming out

I’m exited about the multiplayer, but I’m worried it’s going to be made more clunky to compensate for different play spaces, to try to make it a fair fight with movement controls. What I personally want is better ai, with balanced power and a good vr gym component, that basically has all the features of the app lab title “the fight” but,with better execution, especially the mitt man.

Something I'd like in a boxing vr game is mods. Like opponents,rings/arenas,crouds,music

I don't really care about the multiplayer myself. I want actual training tools like partner drills and mitt holders that are actually useful. I want to be able to use this as more of a training tool. I also want a variety of motion capture boxing styles. Opponents that use different guards (philly shell etc) and move differently with different strategies. Someone else mentioned pass trough or an ar mode. I can see that being useful for those with limited space. I'm excited to see where this goes. *added* Aso having varrying amounts of telegraphing as you go up the ranks of opponents would be great. Being able to frame a bit would be cool, too, but that may not work.

What month of this year would it be released? thank you so much!

We need an update. I need the two player version for my quest three ASAP. Let me know if you need testers!

When though I can't wait for this and only played first game tonight it's so good

YES MULTIPLAYER

I would definitely favour realistic feedback on my technique, such as visible impact on opponent, body ripple, wincing, sweat spray than any 'arcade' style feedback like points or 'pow' comic style feedback. I would also love the opponent to move in reaction to my movement when not punching, for example, if I 'telegraph' an overhand right by 'winding up', would love to see them protect/move to show me I was being too obvious...also open opportunities for feinting. Love this game so much, TF2 is insta-buy for me, but please remain more 'simulator' than 'game'

Decent single player mode basically to train in and more interactive training modes, combo lights on dummies, pad work etc. But the career mode should be the multiplayer mode, ranking events, local, regional and international championship belts, down the line world title fights held in the metaverse with actual fans in the audience.... Maybe arranging ranking/championship fights through the meta app players could select multiple times they'd be willing to fight each other and hopefully some of them are the same.

We gotta blow this video up so we get more updates

Can't wait

i wish there was a release date every year is just saying another year :

When is this coming out !!!

Any update???

Can’t wait to smack you guys around : D

i’m glad realism is focused on. if this felt real who knows how long you could go for.

Just bought the first game, I'm excited for the second one already.

I play Trill of the fight every other day im all cut up muscles i didnt know i had but i was already a skinny dude but now i feel like i can knock someone out if i need to went from easy to endurance

It would be so cool to see the inclusion of a “coach” mode, where you can fight and your friend can couch. Would be great to look over and see a friend there cheering you on and vice versa. Also, smack talking the other team members between matches would be so amazing! Maybe even have a tag team mode like 2v2? KO one guy and the next guy has to KO you and your friend? Oh man I can’t wait to see what they have!

I'm half bricked because if this announcement 😂

Esta increíble me encanto ahora si nos partiremos a puñetazos sin acer nos daño jaja buen trabajo :)

have you got any alpha/beta gameplay so we know what to expect?

They can backup the Money truck with this sequel! No gameplay video from part 2? What in the hell?
