- Head 2 Head Announcement - 19 August 2026
As you all may know, we've taken quite a while on getting to Head 2 Head's 1.0 release. In the meantime, we have worked on focusing the Head 2 Head experience. The roguelike survival mode got too big and scope creep set in. We're approaching Head 2 Head in a new way, keeping most of what was there, but refining the experience to be more enjoyable. There will be more story and lore tucked away to expand the world. We'll also have more unique playable characters ready to go on Launch. With the refactoring of Head 2 Head, we're setting the price at $14.99 for 1.0. This will include online lobbies, revised and updated rollback netcode, story mode for each character, unique moves for each head, and many other fixes and balancing. We hope you're still looking forward to Head 2 Head. We want to to so much more with it. Thank you for sticking with us!

For those of you who have already purchased Head 2 Head, we are going to release an update before free 2 play that gives players exclusive heads that only early adopters can get. Make sure you update your game before Tuesday, October 25th, 2022 to receive these heads!
