Nintendo has released a new update for ARMS on Nintendo Switch, and is available for download now.
From our first impressions with the update, they’ve added a new menu, which now you have the option to choose between Party and Arena mode for local and online multiplayer.
In the Party Mode, just as before, you can fight a variety of stages and modes using customizable rules. Max 10 consoles per lobby.
In the Arena mode for those who are into playing competitively, it changes, for now, you take turns fighting one-on-one matches, while the rest spectate in the new spectator mode. Max 4 Players per lobby.
