Girls Frontline 2: Exilium, the highly anticipated sequel to the popular mobile shooter, finally has a release date! Following a successful beta test, developers have announced a December 3rd launch. Get ready to experience a new storyline, set ten years after the original, featuring significantly enhanced graphics.
Girls Frontline, with its unique concept of cute, heavily armed girls battling in urban environments, has expanded into anime and manga. But it all started as a mobile shooter, and its sequel is poised to continue the franchise's success. On December 3rd, Girls Frontline 2: Exilium will arrive on the iOS App Store and Google Play, just in time for the holiday season. The recent beta, running from November 10th to 21st, attracted over 5000 players despite being invite-only—a testament to the series' enduring popularity and the excitement surrounding the sequel.
Ten years after the original, Girls Frontline 2: Exilium puts you back in the Commander's seat, leading an army of T-Dolls—robotic warrior women, each armed with and often named after a real-life weapon. Exilium promises improved graphics and gameplay, while retaining the core elements that fans loved in the original.
Shoot to kill
The enduring appeal of a series featuring girls wielding deadly weapons is certainly intriguing. However, Girls Frontline's success likely stems from its appeal to a broad audience: weapon enthusiasts, shooter fans, and collectors of "waifus." Beyond the core concept, the game boasts surprisingly engaging drama and impressive visual design, making Girls Frontline 2 a title worth anticipating.
