14 DAY TRIAL // Radio Games has been working on KwonHo: The Fist of Heroes for quite some time now. Almost three years to be precise. Having gone through two beta stages, PC gamers worldwide should be quite familiar with the online multiplayer fighting game, sporting 5 different fighting styles. The game is currently hosted by Hangame and is in the process of being translated for North America by ijji. And it's none other than ijji.com who brought today's new video and screens of KwonHo: The Fist of Heroes.
In Kwonho, the player has the role of creating his own character, choosing a fighting style and buying (or acquiring) clothing and/or items (such as tattoos, guitars, teddy bears and other miscellaneous items). A player's goal is to gain experience by fighting other players in a variety of game modes, or by fighting computer-controlled opponents in the Mission Mode. By winning these fights, a player acquires credits, which he can use to buy new techniques or items, and train to become the best fighter there is. However, there are items in the game that can only be purchased with Hangame/Ijji coins. These coins are available for purchase in the My Account section of the Ijji website.
When creating a character, the player may choose among five fighting styles in KwonHo: The Fist of Heroes. Once determined, the style stays fixed to the character. As fighters level up, they gain points that they can use to enhance their attack power, defense power, counter-hit power or counter-defense power. They also gain skill points, which they can spend on a skill in their list to upgrade its damage capabilities. Finally, they can purchase new moves with the credits they receive from winning fights. That's the list of fighting styles:
Tae Kwon Do Muay Thai Tai Chi Quan Ba Ji Quan Judo
