Firestoke and Catastrophic_Overload have confirmed a release date for Bish Bash Bots on Nintendo Switch.
With the gameplay experience pitched as the “mayhem and madness of Overcooked mashed up with a strategic tower defence game,” this co-op party game supports up to four players in local or online multiplayer.
In a cartoony take on a future where machines have stolen technology from humans and are turning it against them, a team of unlikely heroes must work to reset the rogue robots and save the world.
With eight “vibrant and colourful” biomes across 32 levels, you must overcome hazards such as overheating turrets in the Volcano biome or mutant plants that threaten to snatch up players in the overgrown Jungle biome.
With new gameplay mechanics “constantly introduced as the game progresses,” you will have the chance to build upgradeable turrets, unlock gadgets and bash bots with giant hammers – mixing up your strategy as needed.
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Dynamic Enemies: Large swarms of enemies that navigate dynamically – can be pushed, shoved and bashed around by players and turrets.
- Strategy Meets Brawling: A unique mix of casual tower defense strategy and all-out brawling action. Swing giant hammers, run and jump around vibrant levels and figure out how best to use your turrets against the incoming waves of bots.
- Play With Friends or Solo: Designed to be fun both in co-op multiplayer and single player. Play online or locally up to 4 players. You can also play with any combination of online and local players together.
- Level Variety: Travel the futuristic world through 32 vibrant and varied levels. Contend with unique challenges across 8 biomes – from the Volcano overheating your turrets to the mutant plants grabbing players in the Jungle.
- Unlock New Tech: Add new turrets and gadgets to your collection as you progress through the world. Use them to combat the variety of unique bots. Complete challenges to unlock new cosmetics.
- Never a Dull Moment: Players are always in the action, not just waiting for events to play out. Build and upgrade turrets, collect scrap, bash bots and use unique special turrets in your fight to save the world.
Bish Bash Bots will release digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 19 October 2023.
