Astro Bears finally releasing on July 19

SONKA has finally provided a release date for Astro Bears, the sequel to the Switch eShop game Astro Bears Party. A digital release is set for July 19 in honor of Space Exploration Day.

Astro Bears features “loads of improvements, new Bears, planets and play modes”. Find some additional information as to what’s planned below.

Four new Astro Bears join the fun, each with its own unique playstyle, giving players eight total Bears to play with. Experience even more chaotic gameplay with infinite or finite Magical Beary Ribbons and planets ranging from small to huge. Jetfish Hunting can now be played with two in co-op mode, and global leaderboards have been added. New themes, music and gameplay improvements enrich the lively Astro Bears experience.

In this Best of 5 format, players choose 3 different Astro Bears and select the one that best fits a randomized environment. Play continues in rounds to 10 points, at which point the next random environment appears. The winner is the player who wins with all three Astro Bears in this grizzly quest for victory!
