Digerati Distribution and developer Loren Lemcke’s violent hockey game Super Blood Hockey is now available for the Nintendo Switch. The game can be purchased from the Nintendo eShop with a limited time 20% launch discount. Enjoy the game’s launch trailer below…
Super Blood Hockey is a violent homage to classic 8- and 16-bit ice hockey games that will see players coach a team of tough nutjob ice hockey players and take them up the league to victory.
As well as regular matches, aspiring coaches will be able to try the game’s Franchise Mode which will allow them to play as a corrupt coach. In this mode, players can plan their season by unscrupulous means, including recruiting players straight from prison, using performance enhancing drugs and even ending the suffering of injured teammates.
Players can prove their skills in a deadly global tournament or take on up to four friends or family members in 4 player local multiplayer.
Featuring:
- Use superior skating, positioning, strategy and violence to win.
- Take on the whole world in a global tournament, where failure results in execution.
- Various challenges and scenarios, including Turbo Mode and 12 vs 12 Mega Rumble.
- Paint the ice with the blood of your friends in 4-player local multiplayer.
- Franchise Mode: Create, recruit and manage your own custom team of inmates in a futuristic world of dystopic blood sports.
- Enjoy the retro beats of an original soundtrack by chiptunist Shawn Daley.
“Super Blood Hockey is a love letter to the 8-bit and 16-bit ice hockey video games of my childhood, back when high action gameplay reigned supreme,” explains the game’s creator, Loren Lemcke. “Players can expect a modern reinterpretation of the classic arcade sports experience with the blood and violence dialled up to eleven.”
Super Blood Hockey is available now on the Nintendo eShop with a limited period launch discount of 20%.
