Halseo has revealed that its competitive, local multiplayer game Battery Jam will be arriving on Nintendo Switch next week in North America, with a European release scheduled shortly afterwards, too.
If you're unfamiliar with this one, Battery Jam features four boisterous robots for players to choose from as they battle it out against their opponents for territorial dominance. The game takes inspiration from both Bomberman and Splatoon, with gameplay requiring players to keep up with the pace to dodge oncoming attacks and claim the majority of the tiles in the arena to achieve victory.
There are eight different levels to choose from and multiple modes to shake things up, and you can also control various aspects of the game such as altering a match's length time or choosing to have infinite energy to really intensify proceedings. You can either play on your own against AI, or against your friends in local multiplayer. We have a lovely feature list for you to check out below.
Features:
- 8 levels to battle your friends on.
- Choose from multiple game modes such as Original Territorial Mayhem and Classic Deathmatch.
- Adjust a dozen settings for additional customisation including, Infinite Energy, Match Length, and Fast Mode.
- Play against your friends locally, or AI opponents.
- Choose one of four Jammers to dominate the arena.
The game launches in North America on 22nd November, and will arrive in Europe on 4th December.

8 levels for $15, meh, even if i was interested seems a bit steep
Sorry, but I'll stick to Splatoon. Neat idea, but it doesn't really seem worth it.
Hey, at least it looks good, and it seems like a fun concept. Too bad there isn't much more to this.
I've got both games mentioned, so no need to pick up a mix of the two.
@MysticGengar - This is always been a pet peeve of mine. When games are compared to another, more well known, it's almost always dismissed. Why? Cause they already have the compared game. This ain't directed towards you specifically, I see this ALOT.
This game looks great, but that price has me hesitant. But because I own Splatoon and Bomberman too, doesn't make this game just unworthy of play.
Game looks dope and I was sold on the trailer but the local MP only makes it a no for me.
Also, please stop comparing everything to a Nintendo game. That only hurts the developers.
Splatoon crossed with Bomberman? Isn't that known as Flip Wars already?
....I thought this existed already, and it was crap...?
Too bad local mp only, skip
So, it's just and advanced version of the Switch launch title, Flip Wars?
Seeing how fun Bomberman blast is on my Wii with my buds (yes, it is still a go-to title at my place with 8 players), I can imagine this would be a winner.
