ARMS Version 5 Out Now, Includes New Fighter Dr. Coyle

The brilliant Dr. Coyle is the latest addition to ARMS. Naturally, she has her own set of Arms and a stage too! Read on for the lowdown.

Her special abilities include levitation, invisibility, and the power to summon a third ARM after charging. The new stage, [NAME REDACTED], is a high-tech lab, and her new ARMS are called Lokjaw, Parabola, and Brrchuk. You can check out the trailer, or just update your game. Dr. Coyle is available now.

Here are the full patch notes:
