Raz Games’ top-down boxing game Boxing Champs is now on Nintendo Switch!

Originally released on Steam, the game deftly mixes arcade gameplay with more traditional boxing mechanics – delivering some solid Punch-Out!!-inspired boxing action to Switch owners playing on their own or with a friend.

LET’S GET READY TO RUMBLE!

Boxing Champs features full player control over punch selection, combinations, and knockouts. The game also allows players to challenge friends in local multiplayer (online is in the works) or in a full-blown Career mode with 30 preset characters and short three-round bouts. Custom boxers are supported as well – thanks to a robust customization system packed with 70+ hairstyles, hair color, body color, body type, gloves, shorts, and boxer stats. Finally, Boxing Champs features multiple arenas (including Las Vegas, New York, and Los Angeles) and four different champions that stand between players and the unified title.

Boxing Champs

To win, boxers need to snap the jab from the outside and throw combinations – or get inside with hooks and uppercuts to deliver the winning blow. At the end of the road, the goal is to unify the titles and become the undisputed World Champion.

DEVELOPER QUOTE

“Like most of us who grew up in the ‘80s with an NES, I always dreamed of becoming a game developer. It won’t come as a surprise that Nintendo’s Punch-Out!! was my first boxing game as a young boy. I now get to return the favor with Boxing Champs!”

– Chris Razmovski, Founder, Raz Games
