The ARMS Global Testpunch is a free online demo of ARMS that is scheduled to take place May 26 through June 4. It became available to download shortly after the ARMS Direct on May 17th, 2017.
Limitations
As the Testpunch serves as a demo, several restrictions are placed on players compared to the full game. The primary restrictions are that:
- I the first weekend, players could not use Kid Cobra, Twintelle, or Byte & Barq. However, all characters are shown in attraction clips. Twintelle will be playable during the second weekend[1]
- The only available stages available during the first weekend were Spring Stadium, Ninja College, and DNA Lab. Ramen Bowl will be added for the second weekend.[2]
- Beyond regular battles, the only other Versus mode in the first weekend was V-Ball. It will be replaced with hoops Hoops and Skillshot
in the second weekend.[3], depending on the session.
- Neither local multiplayer, Grand Prix, Get ARMS, nor Ranked Online are available for usage.
- The game is only playable during twelve one-hour time slots.

Trivia
- Staying on the title screen without pressing anything will eventually play small attraction clips of gameplay. This works even outside of the scheduled play times.
