Fight’N Rage is headed to Nintendo Switch next week, bringing a whole lot of beat 'em up action along for the ride.

This old-school side-scroller is inspired by the classic fighters of the '90s, mimicking the look, feel, and simplified three-button gameplay they were known for. We're talking games like Final Fight, Battletoads and Captain Commando here, so if you're a fan of those, you might want to keep an eye on this.

The game is set in a future where human beings are enslaved by mutants. A female kick-boxer named Gal, a minotaur-like rebel mutant called Ricardo, and mysterious ninja F. Norris must join forces to defeat the mutant leader - called 'The Boss' - and bring back peace to Earth.

Fight’N Rage features three players local co-op mode with optional friendly fire. It contains alternative paths, cutscenes and endings that can change based on the selected characters and your own decisions. Fight’N Rage also includes unlockable content such as costumes, extra difficulty settings, more gameplay speeds, new game modes, and more than 20 extra characters.

You'll be able to play this one on your Switch from 26th September.
