Them’s Fightin’ Herds: A Brief Overview
Them’s Fightin’ Herds is a 2D indie fighting game developed by Mane6 and published by Modus Games, released in April of 2018 for PC via Steam. After Mane6 developed an unofficial fangame based on the My Little Pony franchise called Fighting is Magic, Them’s Fightin’ Herds was soon developed as a sort of spiritual successor. The game features characters designed by My Little Pony creator Lauren Faust, and a streamlined combat system that utilizes 4-button controls, a magic system, and seven unique different characters.
Players can enjoy an episodic story mode adventure filled with challenging minigames and intense boss battles, as well as participate in local online crossplay with rollback netcode capability.
News of a consoles release was first teased back in March of this year, and players can likely expect more fun and intense battles when Them’s Fightin’ Herds finally releases on October 18, 2022.
Players are encouraged to check out the official website for more of the latest information. A new trailer was also released to celebrate the announcement, which can be viewed below:
