Tank Troopers launches February 16 in North America

Tank Troopers, the September 2016-announced tank shooter for 3DS, will launch via the Nintendo eShop in North America on February 16, Nintendo announced.

Here’s a brief overview of the game, via Nintendo:

Tank Troopers for Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS family systems is an action game that thrusts you into battle behind the wheel of a tank with specialised abilities.

Depending on the types of troopers in your tank, you’ll have access to different abilities. They may look like normal tanks, but these powerful machines can strike surrounding enemies with a freeze attack, launch paint balls to block opponents’ views or use electric shocks to stop rival tanks in their tracks. This is not your average tank warfare!

In addition to single-player and a local six-player multiplayer mode, the game offers Download Play. Recon tells us there are other game modes too…
