The Super Smash Bros. inspired beat ’em up Brawlout launched late last year to lukewarm reviews and a large number of performance issues. Even with all of that holding Brawlout back, it’s still been a massive success for developer Angry Mob Games.

The CEO of Angry Mob Games, Bogdan Iliesiu, had this to say about the upcoming physical release:
“Brawlout had such an amazing reception on Nintendo Switch, with a dedicated community of over 80K players in its first month alone.
It’s impressive, and humbling, to see people throw themselves so wholeheartedly into Brawlout and we hope to cater to even more types of gamers with the physical release!”
