![]() You only get the one screen-clear special attack per level, health drops are a bit random, and your only other method is going into rage mode and hitting enough guys to regain your health. You're really going to want a friend or two.Įspecially considering how many enemies tend to mob you at once. However, as someone who does tend to play Beat em Ups by himself? It gets pretty difficult to play alone later on. It's definitely a neat game and a pretty fun beat-em-up. I've been playing it on SWITCH for a while now, actually. Why did a game like Wulverblade seemingly fall off the radar? I've heard and read a lot of tales about indies making it big on Switch since there's not that much competition. So, with all that said, are you interested? Has anyone played this in Switch? (I think there's a lot of positive changes in the new versions, but I didn't play it earlier so I can't tell exactly what they are) The standard control scheme is pretty wonky, but you can remap pretty much everything. My only gripe for now is sometimes enemies / items can hide behind some background layers making them practically invisible. There's huge potential to work towards high scores, it really is an arcade game through and through. ![]() The voices, oh god, the voices of men and women being slaughtered are a perfect addition to the OST! It's almost like listening to an epic battles in movies. Ths music is very much epic, giving the game the right mood. There's a short intense story too, told through comic-style cutscenes. ![]() And you get some nice background about Britain culture (for example, about stone circles which inspired the creators) in the form of short narrated videos between the levels (completely optional if you mind that kind of stuff). You can eat meat and mushrooms, use your enemies' heads as weapons and cut everyone in half with a huge bastard sword. You play as a member of one of the northern tribes, you command your comrades into battle, you can even use the help of dire wolves (remember, it's inspired but obviously not historically accurate). It controls excellently satisfying, it has all the old-school vibes to it (actually challenging even on normal mode, item pickups, bosses flashing red, multiple characters, a big list of available moves, co-op etc), and it has a unique setting.Īh yes, the setting! The game is inspired by the Roman conquest of Britain. I've played it for about an hour now (planning to play more and make a first impressions video for my channel) and I must say, this is a very polished old-school beat-em-up. Today it releases on Steam and PS4, and the XBO release comes tomorrow. So, Wulverblade was actually released on Switch in October last year, but seemingly nobody noticed it. Full disclosure: I received a free press copy for this game.
