This side-scrolling 2D action-adventure will be arriving this Fall on multiple platforms including Switch.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to this, a new trailer has been released &#8211; showing off some work-in-progress footage. This includes an &#8220;updated look&#8221; at the game&#8217;s combat, visuals and play mechanics. WayForward has also released some additional information on its website about this upcoming release:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Featuring an in-continuity story by RWBY writers Kerry Shawcross, Miles Luna, and Eddy Rivas, RWBY: Arrowfell puts players in control of Team RWBY \u2014 Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long \u2014 shortly after they\u2019ve become fully licensed Huntresses in <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/rwby.fandom.com\/wiki\/Volume_7\">RWBY Volume 7<\/a>. You\u2019ll be able to switch instantly between characters as you battle the Creatures of Grimm and other foes using the heroes\u2019 signature weapons \u2014 Ruby\u2019s Crescent Rose, Weiss\u2019s Myrtenaster, Blakes\u2019 Gambol Shroud, and Yang\u2019s Ember Celica \u2014 in melee and ranged combat, and as you explore locations across Atlas, Mantle, and the surrounding wilderness, Team RWBY will complete missions for familiar characters such as General Ironwood and the Ace Operatives (as well as everyday citizens) while uncovering clues about a mysterious new threat lurking in the shadows.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Players will also put Team RWBY\u2019s Semblances to use both in and out of battle. Ruby\u2019s Petal Burst lets her avoid attacks and dash to distant locations; Weiss\u2019s Glyphs create usable platforms that can burst into offensive shards; Blake\u2019s Shadow manifests a doppelganger that can attack and activate pressure plates; and Yang\u2019s Burn unleashes a ground punch that inflicts damage and destroys obstacles. By combining Semblances, you\u2019re able to solve increasingly complex environmental puzzles, and each character\u2019s Semblance can be upgraded to become even more effective. Additionally, by collecting Skill Points, you can customize and enhance Team RWBY\u2019s attributes, including melee attack, ranged attack, defense, and energy regeneration.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Complementing the action are voiceovers from RWBY\u2019s original cast (including Lindsay Jones as Ruby, Kara Eberle as Weiss, Arryn Zech as Blake, and Barbara Dunkelman as Yang), all-new broadcast-quality cutscenes, an atmospheric soundtrack by composer Dale North, and a brand-new vocal theme song by Casey Lee Williams.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Read more &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2021\/07\/wayforward_brings_rwby_arrowfell_to_nintendo_switch_in_2022\">WayForward Brings RWBY: Arrowfell To Nintendo Switch In 2022<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<aside class=\"gallery\">\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"RWBYArrowfell\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/a7bc05464c0f9\/rwbyarrowfell.large.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCA0NDUgMjQ1Ij48L3N2Zz4=\" width=\"445\" height=\"245\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/a7bc05464c0f9\/rwbyarrowfell.445x245.jpg\" alt=\"RWBYArrowfell\"><\/a><a title=\"RWBYArrowfell\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/c75e0af6a2e8d\/rwbyarrowfell.large.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCA0NDUgMjQ1Ij48L3N2Zz4=\" width=\"445\" height=\"245\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/c75e0af6a2e8d\/rwbyarrowfell.445x245.jpg\" alt=\"RWBYArrowfell\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"RWBYArrowfell\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/ebd7396260c84\/rwbyarrowfell.large.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCA0NDUgMjQ1Ij48L3N2Zz4=\" width=\"445\" height=\"245\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/ebd7396260c84\/rwbyarrowfell.445x245.jpg\" alt=\"RWBYArrowfell\"><\/a><a title=\"RWBY Arrowfell\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/1a2e762865d3a\/rwby-arrowfell.large.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCA0NDUgMjQ1Ij48L3N2Zz4=\" width=\"445\" height=\"245\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/1a2e762865d3a\/rwby-arrowfell.445x245.jpg\" alt=\"RWBY Arrowfell\"><\/a><\/div><figcaption class=\"caption\"><em class=\"credit\">Images: WayForward<\/em><\/figcaption><\/aside>\n<p>Are you looking forward to this upcoming release? <em>Leave a comment down below.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[embedded content]Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube At RTX Austin this week, Rooster Teeth and WayForward shared a release date update for the upcoming title, RWBY: Arrowfell.
