Aerial_Knight's second game is a co-op action fantasy story

Published , by Ozzie Mejia

Neil "Aerial_Knight" Jones was last seen in 2021 releasing an exciting contribution to the endless runner category of games. Aerial_Knight's Never Yield blended side-scrolling parkour, dazzling visuals, and some killer beats. Three years later, Jones is back and teaming up with developer BetaJester for his sophomore effort, which isn't quite billed as a sequel, but sticks with the naming convention of its predecessor. It's called Aerial_Knight's We Never Yield.

Aerial_Knight's We Never Yield keeps the parkour spirit of Jones' first game alive, but this time mixes it with action elements. The story sees two brothers named Wally and Lone land in a mysterious fantasy kingdom. Their only hope of getting home is to defeat the evil queen, who just happens to be their Aunt Karmic. The idea is to defeat Aunt Karmic's forces through medieval weaponry and parkour maneuvers. Two friends can team up to control both brothers on a single screen or a solo user can play as both brothers simultaneously with one keyboard or controller.

Blessing Adeoye Jr., Belsheber Rusape Jr., and BlackKrystel will be among those lending their voice talents to the game's characters. Aerial_Knight is also bringing an afro-futurist aesthetic to the tried-and-true medieval fantasy setting, giving Aerial_Knight's We Never Yield a unique look that's unlike most games. Like with Aerial_Knight's Never Yield, this game is promising more sicks beats through a soundtrack from Aerial_Knight and artist Danime-Sama.
