Press release:
XD Games, Shanghai — January 5, 2023.
The Shanghai-based video games developer and publisher XD Games are today very excited and happy to announce that they are going to release the “Stardust Warriors” (v1,0) update for their upcoming platform fighting game “Flash Party“, on January 10th (2023) for PC (via Steam), and Android (via the Google Play store), and iOS via the App Store.

As the first major update for Flash Party, “Stardust Warriors” overhauls combat, giving each of the 20+ heroes four distinct fighting styles, with the addition of new moves. All of these changes have been based on feedback from early access Lab Mode players, putting the community at the centre of the action.

Flash Party also welcomes a new hero — or heroes — Cookie and Can! Get a closer look at the two of them in action in a new gameplay trailer.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Cookie. Players will recognise this feline fighter from S-17’s sneak peek video. Cookie joins the roster with Can, a combat mech forged by S-17’s creator. In addition to having the unique Enhanced Grab and Throw, Cookie and Can’s horizontal skills can cover most of the range in front of them, and any other angle they choose.

As a vehicle for Cookie, Can is also equipped with a devastating charge gun. Charging it generates more power and damage and it can be fully recharged four times with incredible results.

Perfect for medium to long-distance playstyles, Cookie and Can have excellent survivability and powerful attacks making them a force to be reckoned with in the arena.

Battle Royale in Flash Party

In addition to the new heroes comes Party Royale — a new mode that received high praise in early-stage Lab Mode. With new modes that include up to 10-player single-player battles as well as a massive-map battle mode, Party Royale brings classic battle royale gameplay to Flash Party.

Players will be randomly dropped into a dangerous jungle with a gradually shrinking zone that will leave only one fighter standing. Players can increase their strength by hunting for chests or defeating other players to obtain dropped items and buffs. They can also hide in bushes or use various springboards to leap across the map, taking their enemies by surprise in the process.

Flash Party has attracted the attention of platform fighting enthusiasts around the world as the newest heavyweight contender in the genre and there are only a few days left before Flash Party officially launches on Steam and Google Play.
