It’s Max Brass’ time to shine in ARMS’ first DLC trailer

Announced during E3, Nintendo have released an official trailer for ARMS’ first DLC character, Max Brass. Showing off his stage and his unique ARMS, the video shows the current world champion in action as he takes on all comers. His main gimmick is his ‘Bulk Up’ technique, which allows him to armor through lightweight ARMS, similar to Master Mummy. He also takes both of Spring Man’s techniques, meaning he can swat away punches by dashing at the right moment and get permanently charged ARMS once his health drops below 20%.

As for his unique ARMS, they all revolve around fire and explosions. One of them looks like a grenade, with its charged version exploding on contact with an enemy. His version of the Toaster ARM burns with a purple fire, while his version of the Hammer ARM lets off an explosion whenever it slams into the ground. Look out for this metallic muscle man online when he joins the ARMS roster at the end of this month.
