While DNF Duel hasn’t exactly been a big mainstream hit, it still has a strong cult following. It was even among the candidates of the past The Game Awards Fighting Game category, though it ended up losing out to MultiVersus. The game is still going to be supported by Arc System Works, as evidenced by both an upcoming Switch port and Season Pass, which will add five additional characters.

The Switch port for DNF Duel was revealed earlier this month through a new trailer, showing the appeal of taking this fighting game on the go and being able to play at any moment. This was followed by a brief showcase of DNF Duel’s characters, demonstrating their moves and combos. The release date and box art of the port was also announced. It will arrive on April 20 next year.
As for the season pass, it will also be coming in 2023, though no specific release date has been revealed yet. The official Twitter account however shows off the first DLC character of DNF Duel’s Season Pass, which will be a fighter based on the Spectre class. Much like the Ghostblade class in the base roster, it seems she will wield a katana and will have a unique offensive gimmick.
The game recently released a new balance patch that tweaked a lot of DNF Duel’s roster, including buffing a number of characters. For gamers interested in this new fighting game, the Steam Winter Sale has a deal going on for DNF Duel that gives the game a 50% price cut. The same deal can be found on the PlayStation Store. Hopefully these deals will give gamers a chance to check out a more understated fighting game that was released this year.
DNF Duel is available now on PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch port will be released on April 20, 2023.
