According to Fitness Boxing’s overview trailer, Nintendo Switch owners should expect the title to contain a bevy of different rhythmic exercises that are set to the instrumental beats of songs by popular artists. Players will be able to personalize their workouts by selecting from different fitness goals, with the aerobic activities being centered around such boxing-based movements as twists, jabs, uppercuts, hooks, and more.
Not only does Fitness Boxing for the Nintendo Switch incentivize exercise with its customizable experience via different routines, backgrounds, and trainers, but also it encourages users to regularly keep up their workouts with the game by having clothing items unlock the more they play. What’s more is that the title offers a 2-player co-op mode offering side-by-side training routines, as well as a competitive mode involving a virtual boxing ring.
Those who wish to give Fitness Boxing a go before committing to purchasing it for the Switch can do so right now by downloading a three-day trial version of the sports and exercise title via the Nintendo eShop. The final product will set users back $50, so it will be interesting to see just how big of an audience it manages to garner right out of the gate.
If Fitness Boxing’s popularity is high enough, maybe it will inspire the Big N to include one of the game’s boxing avatars as a DLC character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. After all, Wii Fit Trainer’s one of SSBU’s myriad roster members, and another boxer would make a great pick for the fighting game’s cast to supplement the existence of Little Mac.
Fitness Boxing is set to release on January 4, 2019 for the Nintendo Switch.
