Free Lives' popular run-and-gun multiplayer platform shooter, Broforce, appears to be "en route" to the Switch according to a tweet by the game's publisher, Devolver Digital. The affirmation is a surprise considering there was no mention the game was Nintendo-bound during the publisher's E3 video event in June, even though it was originally rumoured to be coming to the Switch earlier this year.
In Broforce, you take control of one of the many bros who must take down waves of terrorists, rescue fellow bro teammates, blow up everything in sight and save prisoners of war. For the uninformed, the characters in this title are parodies of fictional action-heroes such as Rambo, Die Hard’s John McClane and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Terminator.
In existing releases, you were able to team up with multiple other players, so it’s likely the same feature will be included in the Switch release. With no release date at this point in time, take a look at the game’s original launch trailer below and let us know if you're at all interested in unleashing bullet hell to save the day.

Game has always looked like hectic fun. Will likely get even if its just to support the great guys over at Devolver Digital.
Hotline Miami is next. I can feel it
Any idea when it might release? Been hoping for this game for a while...
Good game. Here's hoping one of the small publishers give this a physical release.
Not a huge game for me, but I'd be willing to get it on the Switch when it gets here.
What took them so long? They sure do things slowly in Africa.
Got this for free on PS+. Pretty fun game. I'll show my support and purchase for Switch.
@NESlover85 me too
I'm down. Sweet as!
Will definitely get this for Switch.
Great game!
Played this on Ps4, probably not good enough to double dip but I would definitely recommend it.
A very fun game. Totally unexpected. Recommend it
Got it for free on PS+, curious to see how much they're gonna ask for Switch owners ?
10/15€ probably:/ The Switch taxe as usual...
Definitely recommend this. Heck, might double dip.
@Cobalt This game is worth some bucks because it really is fun and a good game.
@Garage
Yes but buggy as hell too ^^ Hope the developers will solve all the issues and update the game too because they did it on PC but not on consoles... (new characters etc...).
@Cobalt Sadly that's true.
I’ve played through the story mode a few times and even attempted to play it on the hardest mode. Love this game. 100% want it and some other devolved games to come to Switch
Also, I hope it comes with the level editor
I'll definitely get this. Got it for pc years ago and had a lot of fun with it. Should still be good on switch.
First Pedro and now this? GGDD
Wow, literally only two days ago I checked up on the status of this, and NOTHING had gotten out about this being a possibility.
Happy and impressed!!
This looks straight up my inner child's alley. Hope the Switch version is great!
I can conform how this game is actually a lot of fun.
@MsJubilee Hotline Miami on console is miserable, PC is the best way to play it
Looks like a fun game to play with friends after 80s action movie marathon.
Hopefully this port isn't a disgrace like the PS4 verison was.
Cool port...
This unfortunately isn't as good a game as it should be. It also ran horribly on the PS4, so it will be interesting to see if things are even worse on the Switch.
@TossedLlama The actual names in game are even dumber, as they force the word "bro" into them. So Rambro, Brommando, B.A. Broracus etc.
@TossedLlama Ellen Ripbro and I haven't played it. But it looks fun.
This is day one purchase for me, Played it on PS4 and absolutely loved it.
This game is ridiculous fun in multiplayer, especially 4 player couch co-op. I play on ps4 and steam. The enemy character sound effects are laugh out loud funny and the destructible environments create a lot of excitement. I love how it doesn't take itself seriously at all.
Put our family down for three copies if they have online play and the price is right! Loved it on PS4.
