Following a successful launch on Steam Early Access in April 2017, platform fighting game, Brawlout from Angry Mob Games, is headed to the Nintendo Switch in time for the holiday season. Brawlout packs a punch with couch and online play modes, blending platform fighter mechanics and traditional fighting game play into a stylish and fluid battle royale.

​

FEATURES

• Choose from six original characters, each with unique combat styles, or try your hand at Hyper Light Drifter from the indie hit of the same name + more surprise fighters in the works
• Host up to 4 players in online and local battles, with several modes including timed, stock or team matches
• Fuel your Rage Meter to power up for hard-hitting Special Attacks and unleash your Rage Mode
• Action is kept fast and fluid with advanced techniques like air dodging, wavedashes, directional influence on stun, ledge grabs or Rage Bursts.
• Brawlout does away with shields and blocking, focusing heavily on the aggressive, fast-paced combat which has made platform fighters so fun to both play and watch.

A lot of blind hate for Brawlout here. What's the big deal anyway, Mighty Gunvolt Burst is pretty much a Megaman game but i only see love for it. It was made by a team that loves smash and wanted a smash like game for pc, cool to see it being ported to switch when there's a smash drought. I own it on steam and its actually pretty fluid and accurate to smash games, to the point they even support gamecube controllers natively and even have button prompts for gamecube controllers.

Taking a new look on a game, looks good

Sick a smash clone.

basicaly a smash clone with only 6 characters? even smash 64 had more characters.

This is basically a reskin/mod and you're saying it's... awesome?

Still better than Night Trap.

a Smash clone on a Nintendo system? I didn't think they'd allow it.

I almost mistook it as a Super Smash Bros game, like a codename, I read this right after waking up. This coming to Switch is rather strange, maybe padding. A way to excuse themselves from doing a Smash game on Switch, that needs to happen.

If the game is bad because it's a clone then consider Stardew Valley and Fast RMX bad as well, why wouldn't you? Rivals of Aether was pretty good, why not this game? Is it that bad by itself?

well it isnt exactly called cloning when your cloning an IP that has been death since the GC lol, its calle a tribute since people want an f zero game and nintendo just says nope so everyone is fine in playing a third party game wich is similar becuase we all know the best chance of seeing Captain falcon again is if he is in mario kart of smash lol.

Visually it looks great. Can't see myself playing it too much tho. Might give it a try once it's out.

At least it's not Night Trap.

You mean like Ninja Turtles Smash-up that came to Wii? There's also the Jump Stars games on the 3DS.

Battle Stadium DON (also featuring Shonen Jump licensed characters) on the GameCube and PlayStation 2 similarly used many mechanics common to the Smash Bros. Franchise.

There was another smash bros-like game I remember playing one time on a road trip 12-15 years ago (ugh, another reminder I'm becoming old) that one of the guys brought with him to play in his hotel room. I remember that I'd never played it before, or since, and that I was apparently pulling off unexpectedly good moves for someone who didn't know the specific game mechanics. I think there was some kind of strong counter-attack bonus or something if you attacked someone just before their own strike landed. Actually, now that I think about it, that was probably PS2 rather than on a Nintendo console. Still, I kinda wish I knew what that was.

If OverCancer Overwatch comes to the switch. The world is doomed.

Who plays OverWatch in general?

I love it every time I turn around a new game is being dumped on to switch, it's starting to feel like the DS when it started to pick up steam.

Speaking of which that would have been very cool imo if they would have made the switch steam machine (capable).

Isn't this made by the same people who made Project M? If it is, then I'm stoked.
