About the Game

Tested and compatible with Steam Deck™!

What happens when two genres become one? Battle Rockets™, that's what happens! In this distinctive SHMUP Fighter, each player chooses a side–literally! Play as one of twelve Console-tan fighters, and battle your friends...or foes!

Face off in one of three multiplayer modes, each offering Standard and Remix game mechanics:

Duel Shock – Lower your opponent's HP! If their HP is all depleted, you win!
Short Fuse – Five rounds, five chances to get the first shot! Who will win the most rounds?
Cash Grab – Collect all the coins you can, or just zap them out of your foe's pockets, but watch out for that time limit!

Or, try your hand at one of eight single-player Challenges. These minigames expand upon the Console-tan lore, and allow players to hone their skills. Ready for something tougher? Super Challenges ramp up the difficulty of our original eight Challenges.

Are you Head-to-Heady?
