NCSoft revealed during the September Nintendo Direct that their action-packed battle game, Battle Crush, will soon be available on Nintendo Switch. A closed beta test is scheduled for October 23-30, followed by the game's official release in Spring 2024.
To get a sneak peek of Battle Crush, interested players can register for the closed beta test via the game's official website. The beta test will take place in 25 countries across North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia, and will also be available on Steam and Android, with the added feature of cross-play.
Each person invited to participate in the test will be granted three codes to invite additional friends. Whenever a code is redeemed, both the person who sent the invitation and the person who accepted it will be rewarded with a certain amount of in-game currency.
Battle Crush is a game for 30 players where players, as Calixers, fight until only one player remains. According to NCSoft, it provides a dynamic and strategic battle experience with easy controls.
Besides playing solo, players can team up in Team mode with up to three other players. Additionally, there is a Brawl mode that takes place on a smaller map compared to the larger battle royale mode. There is also a 1v1 mode called Build-Up, where the first player to win three out of five games is the winner. After each round, the defeated player can select items before the next round, adding an ongoing strategic element to the gameplay.
Battle Crush was already confirmed for PC in Korea, but the company hasn't said much about its plans for the West until now.
