After two years of work from fans, this free vtuber brawler is now one of the biggest fighting games on Steam

After promising previews capping off two years of development, free vtuber brawler Idol Showdown has finally hit Steam and instantly become one of the platform's biggest fighting games. 

A quick look at Steam's own new and trending tab for fighting games puts Idol Showdown at number two, while SteamDB ranks it at number three for concurrent players among fighting games, trailing behind Brawlhalla and Naraka: Bladepoint. In a tweet, developer Besto Game Team confirmed the game was downloaded over 200,000 times in its first weekend. It's also racked up nearly 2,000 reviews on Steam at the time of writing, and with a 95% positive rating.
