Blue Mammoth Games had its own booth at PAX East 2016 to show off the awesomeness that is Brawlhalla, the free-to-play fighting game on Steam (and soon on PS4) to those who were unaware of the carnage-inducing 2D Platform Fighter.
And the new update unveiled at PAX East was a brand new weapon.
Anyone who plays Brawlhalla knows that weapons are a huge part of the meta and as Blue Mammoth Game Brand Manager, Dan Nichols told us on the showfloor the new weapon will definitely change up how competitive players fight.
The new Brawlhalla weapon are gauntlets that really helps the Legends get in up close to their opponent while racking up the damage.
Take a look at the Brawlhalla Gauntlet demo below courtesy of Blue Mammoth Games.
As you can see from the video above, Gauntlets look to really change how players fight in Brawlhalla. Players who prefer to have an up close and personal approach will really love this new weapon. But it also adds a lot of interesting wrinkles to gameplay.
Brawlhalla gives almost infinite jumps even in midair, so midair combat is not unlikely during matches. With the Gauntlets, your Legend can really take advantage of the weapon’s quick punching capabilities and the meteor smashes.
So what do you think of the newest weapon coming to Brawlhalla? How would you use it in battle? Let us know in the comments section below.
