Today’s ARMS Twitter update is fairly unremarkable, but worth checking out if you’re a fan of Mechanica. As it turns out, Mechanica’s workshop can actually be found on the recently revealed Scarp Yard stage.

In that workshop, you can find blueprints of the exoskeleton that Mechanica is using, alongside various other models and prototypes:

All sorts of information has been coming out about ARMS from this month’s issue of EDGE. Another tidbit previously unknown is that the game features items that appear each round. One powers up your super, one heals you, and another is a time bomb that you and your opponent can hand off back and forth with punches until it explodes, similar to a game of hot potato.

We did actually get a look at items during the most recent Nintendo Direct, but it went largely unnoticed. Pictured above, when you punch the drone, the item is dropped.

Keep in mind that items aren’t mandatory. You can turn them off in the options menu if you’d rather play a more traditional match.

Today’s ARMS Twitter update is definitely a bit unusual. Instead of a content update on the game, the Twitter account released this pdf file – a template which you can use to make your very own origami version of Biff, the ARMS commentator. If you need help or just want to take a look at the finished product, check out this gif:

Only a couple of days after the reveal of Ribbon Ring, we’ve already got news of the next brand new ARMS stage: Scrap Yard. This, well, scrap yard features destructible iron pipes:

Today’s ARMS Twitter update revealed a brand new stage – “Ribbon Ring”, which is Ribbon Girl’s home stage. The interesting feature of this stage is that the center part of it can rise in the air, as you can see below:

The official ARMS Twitter account provided some more brief updates on the game today. First up is another alternate color scheme for Master Mummy, though we already saw that one at Niconico Chogaiki 2017.

A new weapon showcase video was also posted; this one focuses on the Megaton weapon:

「デカい」「重い」「遅い」の3拍子が揃ったアームは、チャージでさらに巨大化！
マスターマミーにピッタリの、チョ～重量級です！ pic.twitter.com/Zy5UrShYE9
