Action Arcade Wrestling is coming to the Switch next year, and to celebrate the holiday season, we’ve been given a special festive trailer.
The game launched on other formats earlier this year and takes inspiration from ’90s arcade grapplers like Saturday Night Slam Masters and WWF Wrestlemania. There’s a simple two-button control system and an emphasis on accessibility.
Here’s some PR:
Perform a BODY SLAM, knock’em down with a CLOTHESLINE, pull off the classic PILEDRIVER AND… shoot LIGHTNING BOLTS into your opponent’s face?! Whatever you do… don’t find yourself looking up at the lights!
Action Arcade Wrestling brings everything you love from 90’s wrestling games with its own twist of chaos and fun.
