Skullgirls Gets A Release Date For PC
We've known Skullgirls was heading to PC for some time, but now we have a release date.
Pre-orders for the game on Steam begin on August 1, and it will release on August 22. Pre-ordering the game gives PC players five new color palettes for all of the characters, as well as access to the game's beta. For more on Skullgirls, head here to read our review.

Our Take
Skullgirls is very much a community-driven fighting game (as all are, admittedly) that was designed to welcome newcomers with open arms. Hopefully its release on PC will create a whole new audience for Skullgirls.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
