Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All! Is A Beat 'Em Up Game Coming This November
/Asterix & Obelix is getting their own video game as developer Mr Nutz Studio announced that they are set to release their beat ‘em up game Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All! on November 25, 2021 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
As if it was stripped out of the comic book, the 2D animation looks rather striking as you see the duo beat up Roman soldiers and pirates with either a friend through local co-op or solo. The developers aim to make a game that is faithful to the original material and from the looks of the trailer below they’ve nailed the look and feel.
They didn’t release much information about the game but according to the developer the gameplay has “no secret ingredient to the gameplay besides good, old-fashioned fun.”.
Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All will be available in both digital and physical copies when it launches in November.
There will be two additional editions besides the standard copy available at launch:
Limited Edition
A copy of Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All!
A keychain

Three lithographs
Collector’s Edition
A copy of Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All!

Since the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S having backwards compatibility, Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All! will be playable in current-gen consoles as well when it launches on November 25.
