<p>A new boxing game IP has sprung from the Nintendo Switch reveal event, <em>Arms</em>, which focuses on the motion controls of the Joy-cons. This new title is a fighting game that has two players in a crazy boxing match with special moves, blocking, dashes, and jumps.</p>
<p>The developer from Nintendo explained, &#8220;<em>When you punch, your character also punches. When you twist your fist, your punch curves. With this you can get a distant enemy.</em>&#8221; You can also move characters by tilting the Joy-con. Nintendo has emphasized that the game is pick-up and play oriented because of the physical controls, so anyone can play it. <em>Arms</em> will have local and online options for multiplayer. The two characters in the trailer are called Spring Man and Ribbon Girl.</p>
