About this game
Brawlhalla is a free-to-play platform fighter built around positioning and knockouts. Choose a Legend with a pair of weapon types, then look for attacks that send opponents out through the side or top of the arena. Hammer and Sword knockout combos illustrate why your position matters when deciding how to finish an exchange. You can enter casual free-for-alls, ranked matches or private rooms, with local competition and cross-platform online play available on Nintendo Switch. The free Legend selection rotates weekly, while gold earned through online play unlocks additional characters. Progress can therefore include both learning a fighter's options and expanding the roster you have unlocked.
