ARMS is a Nintendo Switch exclusive game being develop by the Mario Kart team at Nintendo EPD. It is a fighting game that use the Joy Cons' motion control to control extendable arms. Each character can pick a different arm for their left and right hands, and each arm have it own element. The game launches on June 16th with 10 playable characters.

The playable characters are Spring Man, Ribbon Girl, Ninjara, Master Mummy, Mechanica, Min Min, Helix, Kid Cobra, Byte & Barq, and Twintelle. Additional characters and stages will be added as Free DLC.

I have been excited for this game since the Switch's Presentation trailer. I was so disappointed with 1,2 Switch reveal, and when I saw the two people going at it in the video, I was worried. Then I saw the game, I was impressed. I was worried that there would not be much content in the game, but after the direct and the announcement of free DLC, I decided that I am going to buy this game as soon I get a Switch.

This game's characters feel like Overwatch x Splatoon. I am hoping this game sell well.
