The open beta for Ninjala, an arena brawler for Nintendo Switch, will start next week. The open beta will be public and available globally on both April 28 and 29, in three different time periods, each for one hour.

Ninjala is a multiplayer arena action game where you play as a ninja that uses Ninja-Gum to craft weapons and fight their opponents in dynamic environments. The game will feature a battle royale mode with 8 players, and a team-battle mode with two teams, each with four members.

Alongside the open beta's announcement, the development team also released a dev diary detailing more about the game modes and other in-game features. According to Gungho Online Entertainment America, the open beta will include the eight-player battle royale mode and a training mode. There will also be four weapons available, out of the twelve that it will be present on the game's release: the Ippon Katana, Drill Beat, SK8 Hammer, and Trick Ball.

Here are the time periods when the open beta will be available:
