Indie developer Raz Games has announced that their top down arcade boxing title, Boxing Champs, will arrive on Steam on 30th May. This boxing game will provide a full arcade like experience similar to those beat ’em ups of the 80s and 90s.
Boxing Champs will use traditional boxing mechanics that use both analog sticks to deliver hooks, jabs and uppercuts to opponents over short three round bouts. Players will have full control over punch selection and combos through a full Career Mode with 30 preset characters or against their friends in local multiplayer.
Players will be able to create their own boxer thanks to a robust customisation system and fight through four different champions in multiple arenas, including Las Vegas, New York and Los Angeles.
The game features:
- Choose from 30 preset boxers or create your own from a large number of different hairstyles, colours, body types, gloves, shorts and more.
- Four champions to defeat.
- Use traditional button driven controls or use the analogue sticks.
- Multiple arenas to fight in, from the Downtown Gym to venues at New York and Las Vegas.
- Career mode – Train hard then move up in the world rankings.
- Single-player and local multiplayer options.
- Cartoon-like graphics and sound.
Boxing Champs will be coming to Steam at the end of the month with a launch discount and a Nintendo Switch version is expected sometime after.
