    It feels like this game really came and went. It's essentially just a multiplayer-only game, it has bots that you can play with but I found the bot play to be boring and mediocre. You can tell how local multiplayer is essentially what would make this game fun, the online capability is there but it's got such a small community that unless you are really invested in playing with a group ofIt feels like this game really came and went. It's essentially just a multiplayer-only game, it has bots that you can play with but I found the bot play to be boring and mediocre. You can tell how local multiplayer is essentially what would make this game fun, the online capability is there but it's got such a small community that unless you are really invested in playing with a group of gamers you will probably just wait around until you are matched with people way out of your league. To top it off the game always has a zoomed out look to it so unless you are playing on a TV it's a bit straining to look at. In the end this game simply feels useless on my Switch Lite and it's community just doesn't seem to be there.… Expand

    The arcade classic hits the Nintendo Switch and surely is a thing to be happy about if you are into chaotic, cooperative-multiplayer action-platforms. For skillful fingers, there is a lot to love here. On the other side, all the less experienced players are going to get from this Killer Queen, is a ruthless sting of the losing streak. So beware.

    Killer Queen Black is a wonderful adaptation of the modern arcade game. If you're a fan of unique online multiplayer experiences and frantic 2D action, it's a definite must-play game.

    Killer Queen Black is a surprisingly superb mix of action and strategy in a 2D arena. Levels, game modes and character choices are rather limited after repeated matches, but the action and strategy are enough to keep players invested simply by having a good time. Killer Queen Black is an exceptional choice for gamers that want quick fun in a 2D space.
