DNF

Striking down with great vengeance and furious anger Well, I called it — Back when I reviewed Nexon’s awesomely fun fighter DNF Duel earlier this week, I distinctly noted that I expected 20 infinite combos to drop within week one, and it seems that a whole host of ’em were found by Day Two, with the holy warrior Crusader being the worst offender. In videos spreading throughout the FGC like wildfire, the gospel-lovin’ bone-breaker has demonstrated his utterly ridiculous touch-of-death combo, one that can essentially be…

Before it was even officially out a full day Nexon’s absurdist, highly enjoyable fighting title DNF Duel launched yesterday, and it wasn’t even 24 hours before modders were already adding popular anime and gaming heroes into the PC edition of fast-paced fighter — such is the way of the FGC and its incredibly talented modding community. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xe9RmGZGwfU The first that caught my eye was this wonderful skin of Persona 5‘s button-down bookworm Makoto Nijima, whose skin fits like a glove over DNF‘s…

Does Not Fail Ever since Capcom released Street Fighter II 30 years ago, the fighting game genre has attempted to strive for perfection. Oh sure, the methods, modes, mechanics, and artistic styles for every ring-rocker are very different, but every one of these games is pushing toward the same goal: the capture of a community; a passionate player base that will keep said fighter alive, kicking, and perpetually on its feet, lest it falls to a 10-count like so many contenders that have come before. Today, it is incredibly…

The Silver Fox Surprise! Turns out that Nexon is still not done revealing characters for its upcoming fighter DNF Duel, which is literally less than six days away from launch. Today’s DNF Duel trailer introduces us to the Lost Warrior, who carries with him the undeniable presence and physical aura of a potential boss character. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqaHE0JwIJ8 The Lost Warrior, as you can see in the video above, carries himself with the visual appearance of primordial times, but with a fighting style and…

Choose Your Fighter It’s been a long time coming, but we are now one week away from the launch of Nexon’s cool-looking fighter, DNF Duel. Y’all excited? I know I am, just for the roster at the very least. The publisher has chosen to stoke the hype fire one last time by releasing the game’s opening cinematic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruRh8RGLRVM Originally announced in 2019, (and widely covered by yer boy since), DNF Duel is a one-on-one fighter adapted from the popular Korean MMO Dungeon Fighter Online. DNF Duel…

Who do you voodoo? Yes indeed, we are less than a month away from the long-time-coming launch of anime fighter DNF Duel and publisher Nexon is still dropping character reveal trailers — Who’s that clomp, clomp, clomping her massive-ass shoes down the hallway? It’s the pint-sized voodoo queen herself, Enchantress! Bedecked in Gothic-Lolita fashions and wearing an equally heavy look of mischief, Enchantress might be the smallest and youngest competitor to enter the DNF Duel ring, but what she lacks in size she makes up for…

If you got a problem, yo, I’ll solve it… Well I’ll be durned, I was sure that last week’s explosive “Launcher” trailer was the last character trailer we’d be seeing for Nexon’s upcoming scrapper DNF Duel — and yet the funky looking fighter keeps on giving with a brand new video revealing the gun-toting, swooneriffic desperado, Troubleshooter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7luVBKogBKk As you can see from the above video, Troubleshooter is another DNF Duel firearms user, though has more of an old west, gunslinger…

Lock ‘n’ Loaded Plucky underdog fighter DNF Duel may only be a couple of weeks away from launch, but that fact, apparently, will not prevent it from revealing even more roster members. Check out this new trailer from publisher Nexon, which gives us our first in-action look at what may prove to be DNF Duel‘s final launch roster fighter: Launcher. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTbz8Ouj6z0 In a somewhat terrifying 30 seconds, our tech-savvy, firepower-obsessed gal lets rip on her opposition with a ridiculous variety of…

Online features Online Modes Nexon’s decision to drop a brand new trailer for each and every feature in its incoming fighter DNF Duel is certainly… a choice, but I suppose it helps to communicate to the fighting game community that the plucky underdog title will be stepping into the ring loaded for bear when it arrives in June. This latest lightning-fast video focuses specifically on DNF Duel‘s online options, which include Ranked Vs battles, a full online ranking system, player profile cards, and a replay library — an…

Does not play well with others It’s been a long, long time, but we’re now only a short month away from the launch of Nexon’s plucky underdog fighter DNF Duel. Following on from an array of character trailers and a semi-successful beta test, the great-looking punchfest will finally launch on PlayStation and PC platforms June 28. To help keep the fans’ hype fires stoked, Nexon released a short new trailer taking a look at the title’s single-player options. Those of you who don’t feel like throwing down with friends or…
