Scrap Rush channels Bomberman for multiplayer junking

PQube and Aquire are bringing maze-based arcade game Scrap Rush to the Switch in the west providing colourful multiplayer mayhem for up to four players. Scrap Rush looks and plays like Bomberman, but puts cubes of junk in your robotic hands as weapons.

Use them to crush your opponents, and grab their scrap to build more while dodging other players' attacks! Depending on the game mode, last robot standing or the one with the most scrap wins. The game launches in the summer, it offers player vs player, point matches, survival mode and scrap battles.
