A listing on the North American eShop has revealed that Timberman VS will be hitting the Switch on 3rd May.
The game, which has already seen a 'free with in-app purchases' release on mobile devices, before landing on Steam in 2015, is aiming to bring some cheap and cheerful fun to your Switch. Timberman VS is a very casual affair, with players needing to slice and dice trees in an arcade-style, fast-paced race.
It now features a single player challenge, allowing you to hone your skills and unlock each of the 56 available characters, as well as three different mode types called Classic, Hero, and Race. While the modes offer different completion goals, the gameplay itself appears to be a very similar affair - hopefully the game will work nicely as something to play in short bursts.
It will launch at the relatively low price point of $1.99 (European details are still to be confirmed).
Would you like to add a small, cheap arcade game to your Switch library for some quick bursts of fun? Or is this one not your style? Let us know your thoughts down below.

This game is fun for 1-3 minutes at best, gets old real fast.
Pure shovelware, bilge.
You could create this game on an Amiga, there is only two buttons you need to press.
Come on Nintendo where is your quality control?
Why does the heading call it Timberman Vs Aims? Oh, that’s right, you don’t use sentence case or inverted commas to aid readability.
This is a mini game on Vostok Inc. - I recommend buying that instead of this garbage
Timberman is great! This is fantastic news
@Bondi_Surfer I'll admit, it can be slightly confusing at times, but extremely common practice to capitalize every word in a title/subject line.
So it's like the minigame in Star Allies. I wasn't a big fan of it, but I could see people getting mildly competitive over it
@Pip_Pipston mildly is right -.-
Isn't this just Kirby's Chop Champs?
@Bunkerneath since when the number of buttons affects the quality of the game? Cutting a tree is very enjoyable in multiplayer - I played it on Steam 2-3 years ago.
@sauce sorry to say, but as far as I remember timberman was the first game of its kind - however, it has thousands of clones on the mobile, a few on steam, hundreds mini-games on game sites.. I did not think Big N would copy from them
@DockEllisD,
Lol, you are right!
