Fight Crab Switch physical release happening in the west with “Shella’ Awesome Edition”

Fight Crab had a physical release on Switch in Asia, but not in other regions. The good news is that this will be changing soon.

Mastiff, the publisher for Fight Crab in North America and Europe, is now planning a “Shella’ Awesome Edition” for the west. Copies include a copy of the game on the cartridge, a sticker sheet, digital download for the original soundtrack, 11×17” original Ukiyo-e style art print, and dual-sided coversheet print.

Fight Crab made its first appearance on Switch as a digital download in September 2022. We have more information about the game below.

Fight Crab is an over-the-top physics-based, 3D action battle game that combines giant crustaceans, insane weaponry, and intense claw-to-claw combat into one absurdly hilarious, must-play game.

You are a crab. Embark on a world tour of devastation, flipping over as many crabs as possible in a quest to be crowned lord of the crustaceans!
