Vanguard Princess PC Port DLC Launches Early Access on Steam - February 12, 2026

Date: February 12, 2026

Vanguard Princess, the classic 2‑D fighting game known for its all‑female roster and fast, skill‑based combat, is expanding onto the desktop platform. The new Vanguard Princess Mobile (PC Port) DLC enters Early Access on Steam on February 16, 2026, bringing the original mobile experience to Windows PCs.

What’s New for PC

Standalone playable DLC (requires the original base game but runs independently after installation).
Built in Unity with extensive community‑driven refinements, emphasizing precision, momentum, and mastery.
Full support for gamepad, keyboard, and arcade fight‑stick inputs, including independent P1/P2 bindings and complete button remapping.
Modernized UI and HD visual assets optimized for higher‑resolution displays.
Performance upgrades and tuning for contemporary PC hardware.
Online multiplayer powered by Photon Unity Networking 2 (PUN2) with competitive matchmaking.

Complete Game‑Mode Suite

Tutorial Mode - Learn the fundamentals and advanced techniques.
Story Mode - Follow the journeys of ten unique fighters paired with powerful partners.
Versus Mode - Local and online head‑to‑head battles.
