ARMS is scheduled for release on 2017-06-16 in the US[1], Europe[2], and Japan[3].

Gameplay

Each player controls one fighter from an over-the-shoulder third-person point of view. The game optionally takes advantage of the Nintendo Switch Joy-Con controllers' built-in motion controls, allowing players to throw punches, block, and move around the arena by flicking or tilting the controllers.
