Nerf Legends Brings Colorful Playground Action To PCs And Consoles

If you need a shooter, and recent offerings aren't doing it for you, how about an adapation of one of the world's most popular IRL shooter toys? Nerf Legends is now available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam, offering 15 authentic NERF weapons and ammo, letting your relive all your childhood faux-weapon action fantasies.

Nerf Legends offers a number of different multiplayer game modes, in 4v4 team matches and eight-person free-for-alls, as well as a single-player story mode. Your weapons can be upgraded with ammo types that can slow or push other players, and there are lots of colorful cosmetic options to let you forge your own unique, mid-'90s style. There's even an axe melee weapon, which seems weird because Nerf doesn't make axes, does it? Oh ...

Actually, the real question we have is, what will they call it when there's an overpowered weapon that needs to be taken down a notch or two? Will they "Call of Duty" it? "Fortnite" it? It would seem fair, seeing as how other games have used Nerf's name in vain for so long.
