‘Mighty Switch Force 2’ Trades In Blaster for Fire Hose!

The original Mighty Switch Force from the 2D platforming masters at WayForward was one of the early examples of why the 3DS eShop was worth being excited for. The game’s popularity would drive it to receive free DLC in the form of new stages and a Wii U port, but now it’s clear the game is too hot for its own good.

Which is why Mighty Switch Force 2 has Officer Wagon playing firefighter in the newest trailer. Bringing back the 2D pluzzle/platforming that made the original a hit and blending it with new water mechanics in place of the straightforward blasting of old, this game has the potential to build on an already great game. Of course, the popular switching mechanics are back, bringing blocks to the foreground and background to solve puzzles. I’m glad to see the game sticking with what works. After all, it’s not the first sequel in the “Mighty” franchise for nothing.

Is trading in the police badge for a firefighter uniform the right way to go? Check out the newest trailer and decide for yourself.
