Why play it

A port of Arkanoid, a brick breaker released by Taito in 1986. Players take the helm of the spacecraft "Vaus" and bounce the Energy Ball to shatter the Space Walls. The goal is to escape from the dimension of a warped labyrinth and return to the mothership Arkanoid. Players can collect power-up items that might give them the edge they need to conquer each stage.

Arcade Archives 2: Arkanoid is a successful adaptation of a thrilling arcade game; while it has a few minor quirks, it faithfully recreates the original experience on the Nintendo Switch 2. The optional mouse controls—provided you can get used to the ergonomics of the Nintendo Switch 2 mouse—are a welcome bonus that significantly improves the gameplay experience on the Nintendo Switch 2.
