Rushing Beat X: Return of the Brawl Brothers (Switch 2)

The legendary brawling franchise makes its triumphant return on the Nintendo Switch 2 with Rushing Beat X: Return of the Brawl Brothers. This sequel captures the heart-pounding essence of the original side-scrolling classics while leveraging the power of Nintendo's next-generation hardware to deliver a visually spectacular and highly responsive fighting experience. You can choose to play through the narrative-driven campaign solo or engage in traditional two-player local co-op, making it the perfect title for gaming on the sofa or taking the action on the go in handheld mode. The Switch 2 version features improved textures and lighting, ensuring the urban environments pop with colour and detail.

Combat in Rushing Beat X is deeper than your average brawler, thanks to the tactical Rage Gauge. This system rewards aggressive play, building up a meter that you can spend to temporarily increase your strength and durability, allowing you to survive against the city’s most dangerous gang leaders. Survival also depends on your ability to use the new food combination mechanic. By finding different food items hidden in breakable crates and combining them, you can craft meals that provide essential energy boosts. This adds a fun, light-hearted element to the gritty combat, staying true to the quirky spirit that the series was known for in the nineties.

With its intuitive controls and high-octane gameplay, Rushing Beat X: Return of the Brawl Brothers is a must-have for fans of the genre. The game features multiple difficulty settings to accommodate everyone from casual newcomers to seasoned brawling veterans looking for a true challenge. Every character has been redesigned with personality and flair, featuring expanded move sets that allow for complex air combos and environment-based takedowns. Re-enact the glory days of the arcade and bring justice back to the streets with this definitive edition on the Nintendo Switch 2.
