Nintendo used its latest Partner Direct showcase to announce a new Super Monkey Ball game for Switch.
Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble “launches exclusively on the Nintendo Switch system on June 25”, according to the platform holder.
The newest entry in Sega’s series features over 200 brand-new stages with optional motion controls.
There’s a new spin dash move that lets players blast over obstacles and create shortcuts to their objective.
It supports four-player local co-op and up to 16-player online battles in modes including Race (be the first to the finish line), Banana Hunt (grab the falling bananas), and Robot Smash (team up to defeat robots).
“AiAi and friends are back in the newest adventure in the Super Monkey Ball series,” reads a press release from Nintendo. “Customise your character from over 300 options, roll out across more than 200 stages, launch past rivals with the new Spin Dash move, play with friends in an all-new co-op Adventure Mode, and for the first time in series history up to 16 players can tilt their way to victory online.”
The game is available to pre-order for $49.99 / £39.99, as is Sega Character Pass DLC for $4.99.
