VOEZ, the fast-paced animated music rhythm game, is set to hit retail store shelves in physical version next month!

Along with its standard touch-screen controls, VOEZ will feature new controls for Joycon and Dock mode optimized for the Nintendo Switch.

About the game:

VOEZ is a highly stylized rhythm game developed by Rayark Games and features 3 difficulty levels — Easy, Hard, and Special. In each level, there is a black horizontal line at the bottom of the screen, and notes will fall down from the top of the screen on different note lines. These lines can move horizontally depending on the individual song and difficulty level. The player must either tap, hold, slide, or swipe the note depending on which type of note it is. The game also features a lovingly animated storyline, which unfolds through the Diary feature. As the player completes different requirements, new entries will be unlocked, revealing new story content, locations, and more!

The physical version of VOEZ will be available starting July 24 at $39.99 and will include all updates added to the digital version currently available on Nintendo eShop.

I tried the dock mode controls and I've got to say, they really take away from what the game is. Stick to the touch screen if you get this, bloody great game regardless.

Fantastic little game! Great thing to whip out for a few spare minutes on the bus or wherever. Highly recommended! Lots of songs with good variety and plenty of replay value.

Do keep in mind that this game was 100% meant for touch screens, and up until a while ago, could only be played in handheld mode. The controller controls really nerf the game, so play with the touch screen!

Heard this is not yet announced in Europe. Is it true?

 

[smileyhead]

Hell yes! I love physical releases!

I'm interested now, I hope the docked controls are good so I can play it on my TV. Sure I've played this game with touch controls... on my phone.

I thought a physical release already existed, in JPN that is.

Ah, I wanted to play this, but disliked that it was eshop only. Nice.

I really love it but I dislike using my Switch´s touchscreen so much.

Not really. It's technically playable but super simplified - any button press hits notes anywhere on screen. It's not really possible to make good physical controls though.

Not that strange. The only thing that's different from osus osumania mode is that the lanes can move and merge, which doesn't work well if you map it to physical buttons anyway.

It's not that great. Tap any button to hit any note along the bottom, anywhere on the screen. Tap and hold for slide notes, it'll automatically get em. L and R buttons or joystick flicks for directional notes. Suuuuper simple and not really that fun.

ehh, I wouldn't count mania mode and voez as the same thing :/

how are you supposed to play such a fast-paced game with the horrible touchscreen from the switch tho?

The touchscreen is actually quite good, it is a pity you can't use it while docked.

The touch screen is good but the software on screen keyboard sucks absolute balls. In games it's fine.

It is different but it's as close as you can realistically get on pc.
