2XKO just revealed its roadmap and the future of the game is clearer than ever. In this episode of Double Tap, we break down the 2XKO dev update after layoffs, including Akali and Senna gameplay impressions, duo mode plans, and what the renewed focus on competitive programs means for the FGC. We also react to the Marvel Tokon new character reveals from State of Play, featuring Wolverine, Magic, and early roster speculation around the launch roster. Finally, we tackle the Capcom Cup 12 PPV controversy, the Street Fighter 6 Battle Hub live stream trial, and what this shift could mean for how fans watch major fighting game events moving forward.
