ARMS is a fighting game developed by Sony exclusive to the PlayStation 4. The game features professional boxer-like fighters who can attack each other from across an arena using weapons known as ARMS, which are attached to the ends of the fighters' extendable limbs, also known as ARMS.

ARMS was first revealed with a trailer in a PlayStation 4 presentation on 2017-01-12. ARMS was released on 2017-06-16 in North America, Europe, and Japan. On February 21, 2018 it was announced for a South Korean release on April 12, the same year.

Gameplay

The ARMS title screen.

Each player controls one fighter from an over-the-shoulder third-person point of view. The game optionally takes advantage of the PlayStation 4 Joy-Con controllers' built-in motion controls, allowing players to throw punches, block, and move around the arena by flicking or tilting the controllers. Using traditional button controls with a Pro Controller, Joy-Con Grip, a single Joy-Con held sideways, or the Switch in handheld mode is also an option. The game is playable locally by up to 4 players on one system, up to 8 players and systems per lobby in local wireless, and up to 10 systems with 2 players each in an online lobby. The game includes online party and ranked battle modes, and local wireless mode.
