Volta-X due out in August

GungHo Online Entertainment America has set a release date for the real-time strategy giant robot battler Volta-X. It will launch on August 12 via the eShop, the company has announced.

Here’s some information about Volta-X as well as the game’s launch trailer:

Volta-X will support cross-play between the Switch and PC allowing players on either platform to join forces and build their own clans or face off against each other in heated online PvP combat. Experience an epic journey through the world of Volta-X building a ragtag crew, customizing giant robots, and fighting off cataclysmic threats to the planet!

Volta-X is a real-time strategy RPG, where players control a crew of animal pilots working together within a giant Volta robot, battling other Voltas and monstrous Kaiju in both PvE and PvP fights. Players can customize their Voltas with thousands of combinations – creating a custom loadout to suit their playstyle that can implement multiple weapons including heat sabers, massive drills, acid launchers, and more. Strategy in battle is key as players manage firing off weapons and commanding their team of Volta pilots to power-up weapons, repair their Volta, or extinguish fires. But in between battles, the crew needs time to relax and prepare for the next fight – they’ll relax at their fully customizable headquarters that can be decked out with a barrack, machine shop, garden, music room, and even a cinema – ensuring they remain happy, healthy, and ready for battle! As players progress through the game, they’ll learn more about their crew members and the world they live in uncovering hidden secrets that may forever change their world…

Volta-X will cost $19.99 on the Switch eShop.
