Launching today on Nintendo Switch is It's Raining Fists And Metal, a music and rhythm-based brawler that dials things up to eleven.
With similarities to classic arena brawlers like Super Smash Bros., the game has up to four players battling it out on the same screen, attempting to deal enough damage and then hit them with enough force to send them flying off the stage.
This time, though, you'll be fighting in time with the music to kick opponents off stage and to protect yourself from incoming attacks. Items such as guitar amps and various instruments can also mix things up in the heat of battle, and there's even a Final Smash-like feature called a 'final attack', where you can unleash a devastating guitar solo to thrash your enemies.
Main features:
- 1 to 4 players on the same screen
- Play with friends or against the computer
- Dominate your opponents moshing and fighting them to the beat of the Metal to throw them off stage
- Play many different metal tracks composed specifically for the game
- Select your guitarist and customize his clothes and his instrument
- Play on different maps, each with unique power ups
- Adventure mode (Singleplayer and Co-OP)
- Unique characters with a defined personality
As noted above, this one's available today for £5.99. You can pick it up directly from the Nintendo Switch eShop.

Nah, this doesn't look like it would hold my interest for long.
So, like Crypt of the Necrodancer, but a multiplayer beat em up? Sounds interesting, but the clip didn't really win me over. But to be fair, it looks like it would be more fun to play than to watch.
Comes in for Double Kick Heroes, leave's disappointed
Pretty sweet ideal, love it when developers think outside the box.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWN. Looks like they spent a solid day making this one.
Absolutely nay!
Rhythm based? I like to think I got soul, but rhythm? Nope.
... will wait for Prince Therion DLC.
In hardcore difficulty mode, if you miss a beat then you get a game over screen and the game uninstalls itself.
Just looks sh!te.. nothing else to add really.
Rhythm paradise/Heaven on switch would be betrr
Love the idea, but it doesn't look polished
After seeing this I now want to see a smash bros style fighting game with real rock/metal bands. Gwar could be the end boss LOL
