Run-and-gun game Machine Gun Fury in the works for Nintendo Switch

Today, ESDigital Games announced a publishing partnership with Reset Games which will see Machine Gun Fury ending up on Nintendo Switch. Launch timing is still being decided.

Machine Gun Fury is a retro-inspired action title that’s intended to be a military shooter. The run-and-gun game will have players going on a mission to “bring tyranny to its knees.”

Here’s some additional information:

­
When tyranny takes control… someone has to pull the trigger. Machine Gun Fury is a high-octane revival of the classic arcade military shooter – pure reflex-driven run-and-gun action with no cover systems and no compromises. Armed with limited grenades and overwhelming firepower, players battle entire armies across eight explosive regions filled with relentless enemy waves and screen-filling bosses.

Step into the boots of three unstoppable soldiers – Gunner Jimbo, Suzi Uzi, and Mini-Gun Floyd – and bring tyranny to its knees. Fight on foot or commandeer tanks, boats, and combat buggies while unleashing a devastating arsenal capable of leveling everything in sight.

Featuring fast-paced top-down and side-scrolling gameplay, authentic 8-bit pixel art enhanced with modern effects, destructible environments, and an explosive SID-inspired soundtrack, Machine Gun Fury delivers arcade intensity at full volume.

Key Features

• Fast-paced top-down and side-scrolling run-and-gun gameplay
• Full range of combat weaponry delivering large-scale destruction and huge body counts
• Authentic 8-bit pixel art powered by modern enhancements
• Destructible elements, screen shake, particle effects, and layered parallax backgrounds
