Bush Hockey League finally lands on Switch this spring

Five years after it was originally announced for Switch, Bush Hockey League will finally release in Spring 2022.

We originally reported on V7 Entertainment’s plans for the title back in February 2017. At the time, it was known as Old Time Hockey. It took a significant amount of time for the Switch port to materialize, but it seems that things are finally starting to wrap up.

In a note today, V7 Entertainment mentions that it always wanted to support Switch, “but due to technical issues it wasn’t able to happen until now.” The port is said to have been a “passion project” and “has been uniquely customized to ensure it’ll run buttery smooth and feel more responsive than ever.”

We have a bit of information about Bush Hockey League below.

Aggressive hockey is back in town! Experience hockey the way it was meant to be played in this old-school arcade-style 5v5 hockey game where blood on the ice is just another day at the rink.70s afros, big mustaches, no helmets, dirty hits, bench-clearing brawls, goalie fights, stick fights, knockouts, injuries, ref abuse, and locker room language – Bush Hockey League has it all! Win the bouts to fatigue your opponents for good and gain a clear advantage to score goals and win the hockey game. Better yet, injure most of your opponents and you will win the game by way of a forfeit. That’s Bush Hockey League – I went to a fight the other night, and a hockey game broke out!

And here’s a trailer:

We’ll be sure to let you know when Bush Hockey League has a final release date on Switch.
