Gameplay

Brawlout is a platform fighter in which two to four players fight against each other, in an environment with various platforms. The game features 25 playable characters, including four guest fighters. Characters use a variety of fighting moves and special attacks.

When the damage increases, the victim flies further. The purpose of each battle is to throw one's opponents off the stage.
