Recently a lot of games arriving on the Switch have been revealed via eShop listings. The action-platform brawler, Treadnauts, by Topstitch Games appears to be following this trend, with its very own US listing popping up. Expected to arrive on 17th August for $9.99, Treadnauts is touted as a title that adds a touch of finesse to competitive platform fighters.
You’ll be required to take control of a tank across a variety of zones, while gunning down opponents in a couch competitive mode for 2-4 players. Each tank has a variety of tricks including boosters for air maneuvers and treads that can climb any surface. There are also plenty of power-ups to collect like laser guns and grappling hooks. In addition to this, the game has player progression, modifiers, a single-player target test mode and computer AI tanks with three difficulty levels. It's worth noting the game is a hefty 1.5GB download.
Take a look at the game’s Early Access trailer and tell us if you would be interested in a tank-brawler on Switch.

Scorched Earth? At work, cant watch the trailer. If so, I'm in.
Wonder how many people will read Treasurenauts instead and be mildly disappointed...
This actually looks really cool! I’m going to go out on a limb here and say this may serve me well as an extension of blaster master. Inti Creates, do not read that as “oh we should make blaster master more of a multiplayer game!”
I am saying it because I love the idea of riding a tank around with cool abilities. And having the opportunity to blow away my loved ones from the couch while sticking to ceilings and walls sounds awesome.
I'm not sure why so many game titles use the -nauts suffix, but this looks pretty nifty.
@Dogorilla I too wonder the same thing, but at least it is somewhat fitting in this case, as it is a play on the word Dreadnought.
This Looks Fun!
Looks fun. Speaking of tank games, what the heck happened to the Switch version of Battlezone?
I got this from twitch prime on my pc for free, so I probably won't buy on switch. But it is a really fun game that I would definetly pay 10 bucks for. I play it all the time when friends come over. Would definetly recommend this game
Super smash tanks. #SmashBroRevolution
Woah... it's like Worms and Runbow had a baby who also happens to be the great-grandchild of Gorilla!
...only in the US? Come on guys!
@PhilKenSebben Scorched Earth was turn based IIRC? This one is clearly an action take on the genre.
@SmaggTheSmug booooooooo
@Mr_Horizon It's also coming to EU. It's in the coming soon section of the eShop.
It's out now - when do we get our review?
