The upcoming re-release of Skullgirls on PlayStation Network and Xbox LIVE Arcade—Skullgirls Encore—will come with a new “Typing of the Skullgirls” gameplay mode, Lab Zero Games revealed.
In Typing of the Skullgirls, normal attacks deal little damage, and super attacks are you key to victory. You’ll fill your super meter as the match progresses, but to initiate a super, you’ll need to type out a word or phrase that appears on the screen within a set period of time.
Typing the word 100 percent correctly will do 150 percent the amount of damage it normally would. If you type it correctly, but with a few mistakes along the way, it will do its normal amount of damage. If you fail to type the phrase before time runs out, it will do 10 percent of its normal damage.
Typing of the Skullgirls will be playable against the AI in Arcade and Story mode, as well as against other players in local Versus mode. Online mode is not supported.
