If last month's batch of screenshots weren't enough for you, you'll be pleased to know that a whole new set of screens for Switch's upcoming battle royale game Spellbreak have now been released.
If you weren't already aware, Spellbreak is a magic combat-focused take on the battle royale genre that's set to launch on Switch and other platforms later this year. We don't have a final release date yet, although it was only announced for Nintendo's platform a couple of months ago.
You can check out the new screenshots below. The team tells us that these are indeed from the Switch version of the game.
While we're still waiting to hear about that all-important release date, we do know that the game will feature cross-progression at launch. This means that you'll be able to take your character, customisations, progress, data, and more across platforms should you want to play on different consoles.
Does a fresh take on the battle royale formula sound good to you? Will you be keeping an eye out for its release? Tell us below.

This is looking pretty awesome. I can see myself playing this one.
i’m sure they’ll make a dollar.
@Cevil Yeah not a chance that’s the switch build
i hope itll be free to play. im anxiously awaiting its switch release. Also its in pc beta, so thats likely were those screenshots are from.
@Cevil They dont look all that different then BotW to me. Nearly the same art style. No reason why it shouldn't look good to me.
So many of these type of games in the market with no sign of slowing down. With the market being so saturated is there even communities anymore or is it all 'flavor of the week' type of players? At some point it's going to crash. Don't forget when MMO's took over the world for some years. Just like this current trend it seemed like every developer was trying to make a MMO out of any property/idea.
I would be more into the battle royale mode if there was a good single player story mode. I am interested to see how OverWatch 2 does it. Splatoon 2 was decent.
Either that or the ability to set up bots like in the TimeSplitter series. If there was that mode then I really don't need a story, I can create my own scenarios.
@Spoony_Tech agree with you on that one. The world looks Botwildish, and the character and effects look a wee bit botw/astral chain
less interested now since the death of Cosmic Break was a lie. the way you move in mmos never feels right to me
@MysteryCupofJoe I liked the Splatoon games' single player modes, too. The octo expansion was excellent.
@MysteryCupofJoe man this resonated with me. I have way too many memories of coming up with my own little stories/scenrios on 007 Nightfire or Quake 3 when I'd play against bots.
I can't think of the last FPS/game that I've played that included bots. It might have been the first Call of Duty Black Ops or something haha.
Either way, bots would be nice. Even if they aren't that smart or anything, giving people more ways to play is always a win in my book. Playing against CPU undocked + a good tv show on in the background is basically how I played Smash Ultimate last summer when I was just trying to unlock characters
The character in the articles picture looks totally like Gully from Battle Chasers, just grown up!
As an alpha player since it was being developed only for PC, I've found this game really entertaining.
And it has improved a lot in less than 2 years. Glad I've been able to play all of the alpha and beta builds.
I really hope the Switch port gets to be as good as the PC version.
That looks really good.
@Cevil Its magic.
