Ripstone Games has released Pure Pool on the Nintendo Switch today for $14.99. It includes the base game and all of the snooker DLC. Pure Pool runs at 1080p docked and 720p handheld, with all of the game’s high end visual features, all at a solid 60 frames per second. Offering the full range of control options supported by the Nintendo Switch.
“Pure Pool is the real deal, with gorgeous 1080 graphics, time honoured gameplay and all the features you could ever want packed into a play anytime, anywhere experience on Nintendo Switch,” said Hollie Pattison of Ripstone Games. “The selection of online multiplayer modes make jumping online with your friends incredibly easy, whilst the split Joy Con controls cater for players wanting to hit the table with those closer to home. We’re hopeful that Pure Pool is going to connect a lot of players throughout the upcoming holiday period and we can’t wait for the Switch community to join us at the table.”
Featuring a single-player campaign, skill-based challenges, unlockable customization options and multiple modes of pool and snooker including Killer and American 8 Ball, Pure Pool has players covered with more modes and options than you can shake a cue at. The Campaign Mode tracks progress from Amateur right through to Master difficulty, with players facing off against a series of opponents from pro players, to pool club sharks looking for an easy hustle. Players that make it to the top will either reign supreme or go down in a baize of glory!
Pure Pool also offers a huge range of additional modes, play styles and challenges. With exhilarating fast-paced modes such as Speed Pot, Checkpoint and Royal Rumble, alongside the skill based challenges of Snooker Colors, Perfect Potter and Breakpoint, Pure Pool offers something for everyone. With global online leaderboards thrown into the mix, the competition to pocket the top spot has never been fiercer.
Pure Pool on Switch features a host of local and online multiplayer modes, including Cross-Play support with Steam and the option to play online against stored DNA player profiles. Global leaderboards and rankings allow players to track their performance across the Pure Pool player base whilst challenging members of the global community in Free-play, Two-player, Leagues, 8-ball, 9-ball, Blackball, Killer and Accumulator modes. All snooker content from the original Pure Pool DLC is included too, complete with online and local support for anyone that prefers the stricter rules of the gentleman’s game.
