Teased last night on the Japanese Twitter account for ARMS, Biff mentioned that an update would be available for the game very soon and that it would include a “new” stage. Less than 24 hours later, the update is now live, along with the ability to duke it out in…
Mighty Gunvolt Burst was a pleasant surprise for me on Nintendo Switch. While it doesn’t reach the gameplay heights of the Azure Striker games (also available and incredible on Switch), it’s a serviceable retro inspired platformer with loads of customization options.
