Fight Crab is one of the very few games which somehow become more and more ridiculous the more you look at them, and the brand new trailer above is only making things even more bizarre.
Titled 'Crab-Mageddon! The Complete Live-Action Story of Fight Crab', the trailer certainly captures the spirit of this bonkers action-battle title – if you haven't tried it for yourself yet, incidentally, we'd certainly recommend that you do.
The trailer arrives alongside news that Fight Crab has been treated to a free downloadable update featuring shiny new in-game skins. The update (version 1.2.0) addresses a number of fixes and makes several gameplay balance adjustments, but also adds special Gold, Silver, and Copper skins, which can be selected and applied to any of Fight Crab’s 23 crabby combatants.
You'll have to complete Fight Crab’s Campaign Mode to unlock them, but at least now you know there'll be an extra treat waiting for you on the other side.
Have you played Fight Crab on Switch? Are you happy to accept the Crab-Mageddon crustaceans as our new and mighty overlords? Let us know down below.

I just got this the other day on sale. The audacity and love is what makes it so fun!
I'm seriously thinking about picking this up during the current sale.
Also, as an aside from watching the trailer, is this a Switch exclusive?! I didn't realize that
Aside from the godawful menus in the game, I love Fight Crab. I managed to play it with some friends and we had a deadly time with it. No one could tell what was happening half the time which was the best part
@shazbot It's also out on Steam.
That advert is crabsolutely mental!
You can see the strings on the crab's claws.
Oh what glorious schlock! With all the games out lately I forgot about this one. There simply isn't enough time in the day to play them all! Still I will seriously consider buying this.
I think I heard Japan had a physical edition.
Is the US eShop version multilingual? If there is dialogue, I'll prefer to play it in Japanese. Not that I've ever heard crabs talk... ;
Great to see this game staying relevant! Still need to try it...
I hadn't heard of this it looks fun and a little bonkers, my kind of game.
FREE UPDATE!
NEW COLOURS!
GOLD! (copper)
COPPER! (red)
SILVER! (gold)
FIGHT CRAAAAAAB!!

I think I need to side step this game.
@TossedLlama
Thank you for confirming! Lack of crab flavor is a heinous oversight, but Including the soundtrack is a classy move
I always like a sprinkle of absurd games in my library, so having this with Katamari Damashii would be a nice 1-2 pinch- er, punch! 😄
Awesome! New skins are just the excuse I needed to put in a few more hours!
Added to my wishlist
A SHINY crab? Looks like this is gonna be something that should be on Schaffrillas Productions' radar.
@RupeeClock That's part of the charm of these live-action trailers. They're sort of an homage to old kaiju films. You can spot the strings in a couple places throughout the trailer. 😋
@Teksetter The physical edition of Fight Crab does have full English language support. Check out our post on Twitter for info on where you can purchase the game with a free physical soundtrack that includes an exclusive obi: https://twitter.com/mastiffgames/status/1321884158583603201

@MastiffAwareness
Whoa thank you for reaching out! I wasn’t even aware of a Fight Crab cartridge release here in the US! And with a free soundtrack CD, with an OBI??!! It’s like I’m living in Japan again! 😄
I already followed your link and ordered a copy.
I think my kiddos and I will have a fun time trying this game out this winter 👍🏼🦀
Thanks again for the heads up, and for bringing the game stateside!
I wonder if that voxel-y Earth Defense Force game coming out in Japan would be another nice addition to your library?
