Nintendo Switch has a ton of multiplayer games, but not all of them leave an impression. Super Rocket Shootout comes across as an entertaining “blockbuster,” combining pistols and rockets to create moments of intense competition.
The Four Avengers
Good Twin, Evil Twin, Maurice, and El Bruto form a “muddy” robbery squad. They wear jetpacks for flexible movement, while using low-range pistols. This combination may sound contradictory, but it is what makes Super Rocket Shootout unique in gameplay.
Tutorials and tactics
Maurice is always ready to teach you how to fire the rocket pistol. The Y button is for shooting or melee, the B button is for flying with jets, the A button is for blocking bullets and charging up special attacks. Finally, the X button launches a secondary weapon like an explosive. This style is reminiscent of Super Smash Bros. and Towerfall Ascension, but still retains its own unique style thanks to the smooth transition mechanism.
Variety of Game Modes
You should start with Story mode to get the basics down. It can be played with friends and unlocks levels, weapons, and eight characters. Arcade mode lets you choose your character and take turns fighting enemies, but Shootout is the highlight. Two players are fun, while four players can blow things up, especially when everyone is wielding rocket-powered shotguns.
Lack of variety but still good
Super Rocket Shootout doesn’t offer much in the way of single-player content. However, it makes up for it with a highly engaging multiplayer experience. If you have a solid group of friends, the humor and drama will increase exponentially. These crazy and hilarious rocket-powered shotgun battles are a must-try on your Nintendo Switch.
Conclusion
Super Rocket Shootout is a great choice for a night out with friends. If you want to enjoy some stress-relieving moments while still being competitive, get ready to “hunt” with this quartet of skilled robbers. This party game is sure to bring you laughter and unforgettable experiences.
