The wacky ‘skateboarding’ game Wave Break will sail onto the Switch tomorrow, and bring with it a slew of extreme boat tricks, chaotic anthropomorphic animals, and loaded firearms. This over-the-top action-sports title already offered a pretty unique and wild take on the skateboarding genre, however, the minds at Funktronic Labs have partnered with alternative-rock band Weezer to crank the wildness meter to eleven.
This new development was announced during today’s Summer Game Fest Kickoff Live! event, where Weezer debuted their latest stream-safe single titled “Tell Me What You Want”. Playing in the background on set was footage of Wave Break and its new Weezy Mode level. The stage will feature the new track as well as animal versions of the band themselves performing at the waters’ edge.
Weezer’s new single, which will launch across all streaming platforms alongside the game tomorrow, will also be available to purchase as a limited edition vinyl via iam8bit. Pre-orders for the record will open tonight at 9 p.m. PT.
