Fireshine Games and Undercoders have released a launch trailer for Denshattack, with the game going live today on Nintendo Switch 2. This off-the-wall, extreme action-adventure platformer drops players into a high-speed, high-impact world where the goal is simple: become Japan’s most unstoppable acrobatic train driver.

Denshattack Launch: Available Now on Nintendo Switch 2

Denshattack is now playable via the Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch 2. The title’s debut trailer is available as part of the game’s launch coverage, highlighting the chaotic momentum and stunt-heavy gameplay that define the experience.

What Players Do in the Game

The game puts you in the driver’s seat of a train and challenges you to take it well beyond what should be possible. Instead of a straight run down the tracks, you’ll compete in over-the-top battles designed to test your movement, timing, and nerve. The core pitch revolves around pushing every limit on what a train can do across more than 60 vibrant stages spanning all over Japan.

Competition, Missions, and Boss Encounters

  • Face a lively lineup of rivals in a range of flashy matchups.
  • Work through diverse mission types, including racing, trick-based objectives, and boss fights.
  • Progress through 60+ stages, each built to keep the action fast and unpredictable.

Setting: Japan After the Domes

The story unfolds in a vibrant yet dystopian future. In this world, the ultra-rich have locked themselves away inside airtight air-purifying domes, while everyone else has been forced to rebuild life out in the wasteland. Those outside the domes organize under gang control, and your journey is framed around taking on rival gangs, gathering upgrades, and climbing the ranks until you’re recognized as the best in Japan.

Gameplay Style and Cultural Mix

Denshattack blends rebellious skateboarding energy with both underground culture and traditional Japanese influences, aiming to deliver a runaway thrill ride that keeps you chasing the next stunt and the next confrontation.

Music Details and the Soundtrack Talent

The soundtrack is positioned as a curated audio experience built to match the game’s controlled chaos—like a train performing a kickflip while everything around it refuses to stay calm. It features contributions from Tee Lopes, known for work on Sonic Mania and TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge, as well as additional artists from across the gaming world.

  • Tee Lopes contributes soundscapes, with credits including Sonic Mania and TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge.
  • Ryo Nagamatsu (connected to the Splatoon series and Mario Kart series) is listed among the guest composers.
  • Richard Jacques (linked to the Jet Set Radio series and Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy) is also part of the guest composer lineup.
  • Takenobu Mitsuyoshi (credited with Daytona USA and Sega Rally Championship) contributes as well.

These guest contributions are brought together through the gaming-focused record label Kid Katana.
