No, Hack ’n Slash is not the same as a Beat ’em Up, they play and feel completley differently. |
I don't see a meaningful distinction between them.

Agreed, Hack ' n Slash games are just weapons based Beat 'em Up games. Also many Beat 'em Up games also have temporary weapons which makes the difference even smaller.

I was gonna say bayonetta... then i remembered it was havk n slash.. then i got confuse what is the difference between the two T_T
Fighting Force for PSone was a good beat em up. It's very similar to river city ransom. I can't think of anything after the 1990s though, let alone 2006 onwards.

Saw it, but when it said co-op multiplayer I didn't see multiple players on screen. Did I miss something? |
Yeah, according to Nicalis, it's 2 player local co-op in the campaign mode.

You have to gain characters along the journey and I guess the 2nd player chooses from them. I don't think there was multiplayer on the 3DS version so this must be a new feature.

Well, I recently got Raging Justice on Nintendo Switch, and it's actually a lot of fun and very replayable. Has it's own charm because of the digitized 3D graphics reminiscent of Donkey Kong Country. :) |
Yeah I've seen that game before, haven't gotten around to it. Reminds me a lot of the Streets of Rage games.
Another good beat em up on Switch is, Gekido Kintaro’s Revenge.

It's kind of like the River City Ransom games but more focused on story. I recommend it.

Of course this comes down to opinions in the end, but to me there is a distinction and they feel different. There are many ”weapon based” beat em ups (golden axe, DnD:Shadow over Mystra, TNMT to name a few).
I think that, at least for me, one distinction between what I consider a HnS compared to BeU is the amount of enemies you can engage at once with normal attcks. Most of the games I consider HnS you regurlarly hit hordes of enemies at once. In BeUs you hit one or two at a time and maybe you can throw an enemy at another one once in a while, this regardless of how many enemies there are on the screen.
Charlie Murder was a notable release.
Thats the only game I can think of that has not been mentioned.
