Test Chamber – Super Smash Bros. For 3DS (Smash Run Mode)
Our second Smash Bros. video preview takes a look at the 3DS-exclusive mode, Smash Run. In this mode, four players race against a five-minute clock to scour a vast two-dimensional world for power-ups. Each player enters the game with equal attributes for attack, defense, speed, jump, super, and arms. The power-ups level up these attributes. The player who picks up the most is given an advantage for a classic-styled Smash Bros. match that commences after the clock expires.
Game Informer's Ben Hanson and Tim Turi do their best to make it deep into this treacherous world. Who comes out on top? You'll have to watch the video.
The 3DS version of Smash Bros. ships on October 3. To see more of Smash Bros. in action, check out our video preview of Battle mode.
