Ruari O’Sullivan’s OVERWHELM, the suffocating action platformer where enemies get power ups and you don’t, is coming to Nintendo Switch on April 4th featuring an exclusive co-op mode. Play through the whole game locally with a friend, reviving each other when you go down. Defeating each of the five bosses will give the hive’s creatures additional abilities, so choose wisely: which one will you take on first?
