Punch Club 2 Fast Forward continues the fighting life-sim series with a new fighter's rise through training, jobs, and relationships on the way to the top. Time management remains central, as players juggle a daily schedule to build stats and earn money.

Stat-based fights test how well that planning paid off, while the story keeps the original's dry, self-aware humor. New systems and settings expand on the original game's loop of grinding toward championship status.
