## Controversy

The game, like the first game, has suffered controversy over the decision of a child being the main hero in a violent game. Kyle Howard, the Producer of the game, stated that it was based on Trey Parker and Matt Stone's idea of The New Kid, which was later revealed to be Lucas Powell.

During the Women's March of 2018, the game was the focus of attention for the women as many girls lashed out at the company for their treatment of female characters, mostly as a result of the first game. Both Kazuya and Kyle responded in a hilarious yet threatening way.

## Sequel

Mirage Warriors 3, the third game of the Mirage Warriors series, has been confirmed. The Protagonist is a female K-Pop star named Jyun Yeon.

## Trivia

* This will be the first game to feature characters from a movie. In that case, this marks as the first appearance of Maze Runner characters in a video game.
* With Lucas' name revealed, this marks as the first time that a South Park character has his name revealed. However, it only counts for this game.
* Due to the Disney-Fox deal, all of the playable characters from Kingdom Hearts have been confirmed to be playable, but out of the playable characters, only Sora, Ventus, Aqua, Roxas, and the Player Protagonist of Kingdom Hearts Union Cross have been selected. Riku, Donald and Goofy were added as DLC.
