Arc System Works announced their plans to release a new rhythm game, Eat Beat Deadspike-san, worldwide on March 22 for Nintendo Switch-via the eShop for $6.99.
According to the game's Official website, Eat Beat Deadspike-san is a food gobbling rhythm game that features characters from Arc System Works' fighting game series BlazBlue. Interestingly, the game has a story that is set in an unnamed Hierarchical City, starring two characters, Ragna and Dead Spike-san. Evidentally, Ragna fought hard, but could never win and Dead Spike-san stepped in to help.
Gameplay features the two characters eating as much as the can in order for Ragna to become stronger. Players will need to use the L and R buttons to eat incoming food items to the tune of the beat. Additionally, there is a special Burst Gauge that charges by eating more items and will increase the number of calories Ragna consumes.
