<p>In the game, humanity's existence hangs in the balance as they face a mechanical apocalypse. The <em>"Automatons"</em> are vicious beings that aim to wipe out the human race. Humanity is forced to launch the Experimental Space Fighter program, with eight skilled pilots leading the charge.</p>

<p>Each pilot commands a unique ship and possesses a special ability, supercharged by powerful Quantium:</p>

<ol type="1">
<li>Ayumi (Tactical Nuke)</li>
<li>Biff (Big Biff Beam)</li>
<li>Marcus (Meson Shockwave)</li>
<li>Joe (Overcharge)</li>
<li>Sarah (Quantium Shield)</li>
<li>Sloane (Fighter Squadron)</li>
<li>Carl (Plasma Strike)</li>
<li>Jinx (Hack Wave)</li>
</ol>

<p>Players can either fly solo or team up with others in couch or <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/upcoming/online-coop/" title="Upcoming Online Coop PC Games">online co-op</a> mode. Players will fight through 32+ levels with challenging bosses. As they progress, they'll unlock powerful upgrades. These include special weapons, upgrades, and 600+ attachments. The combination power-up system enables players to craft new weapons for their fighting style. </p>

<p><q>Being on a <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/" title="Nintendo Switch Games">Nintendo console</a> is a dream come true,</q> says Relative Games founder Tyler Boyes. <q>To mark the occasion, the Switch port of CounterAttack is introducing a new subtitle – Uprising – which puts the spotlight on the game's sprawling narrative. Once we launch on Switch, all other versions will get the Uprising moniker as well.</q></p>

<p><q>CounterAttack: Uprising runs beautifully on the Switch, reaching 60 FPS at 1080p in docked mode and 720p/60 in portable mode,</q> says Rei Boyes, Relative Games director. <q>The game is incredibly enjoyable on smaller screens – something we already suspected after seeing it run on the Steam Deck. We think Switch owners will have a great time playing CounterAttack: Uprising on the go!</q></p>

<p>The game also features a unique campaign and level editor, allowing players to create their own missions and levels.</p>

<p>The Switch version will include a redesigned player selector, 25 new attachments, two new levels, <em>"Anomaly"</em> and <em>"Gate"</em>, and bug fixes.</p>

<p>CounterAttack: Uprising is currently available on <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/counterattack/" title="CounterAttack: Uprising on PC">Steam</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/counterattack/" title="CounterAttack: Uprising on Xbox Series X">Xbox</a>. It will launch on Nintendo Switch in Q3 2023. Check out their website at <a href="https://www.counterattackuprising.com/">https://www.counterattackuprising.com/</a>.</p>
