Circle of Sumo coming to Switch next month

Yonder Entertainment has announced that its new game Circle of Sumo will arrive on Switch next month. The local multiplayer game involves “dozens of different arenas where players alone or in teams, fight for supremacy of the ring in an intense challenge of power, precision, reflexes and cunning.”

Here’s a bit of additional information and a trailer:

Circle of Sumo is a fast-paced competitive multiplayer, with dozens of different arenas where players alone or in teams, fight for supremacy of the ring in an intense challenge of power, precision, reflexes and cunning. But Sumo is just a starting point: the basic mechanics of the game have been explored in order to make Circle Of Sumo a real mini-games box, a sort of kaleidoscope of playable pills with a joyful and inclusive soul, while keeping its purely competitive aspects, such as controllers precision and characters’ statistics.

So, not just Sumo arenas wherever imagination can see a ring (such as a traditional dohyo, the top of a tower, traffic roundabouts, desert islands, spinning carousels, golf courses, sunny cemeteries, dark attics and many other unlikely places where the game’s leitmotiv shape, the circle, is the only thing they have in common) but also a multitude of minigames for everyone’s taste including original creations and some reimagining of sports like football and hockey.

The goal of COS is to be one of the most inclusive and cross-cutting games on the market, thanks to a formula that ensure pure fun without giving up the taste for challenge. Just that kind of game that should always be with you!
