> We are delighted to have teamed-up with Angry Mob Games. Brawlout is an awesome title and partnering with Angry Mob Games has been a great experience. We believe Brawlout on the Switch will be warmly welcomed by retailers and fans alike. – Merge Games, Luke Keighran
>
> Brawlout had such an amazing reception on Nintendo Switch, with a dedicated community of over 80K players in its first month alone. It’s impressive, and humbling, to see people throw themselves so wholeheartedly into Brawlout and we hope to cater to even more types of gamers with the physical release! – Angry Mob Games, Bogdan Iliesiu

### [](#bummed-out-by-late-physical-announcement)Bummed out by ‘late’ physical announcement

We are a bit sad because we did not expect a physical version of Brawlout. This is something that on the Nintendo Switch is still a little bit of a thorn in our eyes; if we buy a physical version we can not download the game digitally (something that is not a problem at Steam for example). But also physical releases that later come out of the ‘nothing’.

We almost never find it worthwhile to buy a game twice but see advantages on both aspects, physical or digital.

Are you going to purchase Brawlout physically or have you already acquired it digitally?
