<p>Digerati has revealed that it will be bringing <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/super_blood_hockey">Super Blood Hockey</a></strong> and its retro-flavoured violence to Nintendo Switch next month.</p>
<p>Described as “a violent homage to classic 8- and 16-bit ice hockey games” Super Blood Hockey lets you customise your line-up, take to the ice, and use fast-paced skills and bone-crunching brutality to dominate the game. You can take part in a single player tournament, or compete against friends in four-player local multiplayer.</p>
<p>The new console version even features dieting, showering, and some <em>pretty shady</em> performance-enhancing drugs. But hey, it’s only a video game, right? Here are some key features:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Key Features</strong><br />– Use superior skating, positioning, strategy and blood-splattering violence<br />– Take on the world in a global tournament, where failure results in execution<br />– Varied challenges and scenarios, including Turbo Mode and 12 vs 12 Mega Rumble<br />– Paint the ice with the blood of your friends in 4-player local multiplayer<br />– Franchise Mode: Create, recruit and manage your own custom team of inmates in a futuristic world of dystopic blood sports<br />– Enjoy the retro beats of an original soundtrack by chiptunist Shawn Daley</p>
