Good day mild readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Spherical-Up for Could sixteenth, 2024. Heh, Lagwagon. It’s a Thursday immediately, and which means an entire bunch of video games received dumped onto the eShop. I’ll remind people that I’m now not overlaying each launch, however I consider I’ve included a abstract of nearly each sport value contemplating immediately. Past that, we’ve simply received the lists of latest gross sales and expiring reductions, however that’s loads. Let’s get into it!
Choose New Releases
Lorelei and the Laser Eyes ($24.99)
There are solely three issues it’s essential to learn about this one proper now, associates. One, it’s a Simogo sport, so you realize it guidelines. Two, it’s a Simogo sport, so you realize the much less you realize getting in, the higher. Three, our pal Mikhail gained the coin toss so he’s going to be reviewing this one for us. Do stay up for that. And this sport.
Learn Solely Recollections: NEURODIVER ($14.99)
This return to the setting of 2064: Learn Solely Recollections tells an entire new story with an entire new forged. You play as an esper named ES88, and your job is to trace down and seize Golden Butterfly, an entity that’s hiding in (and messing up) individuals’s reminiscences. With the assistance of your Neurodiver, you’ll gather clues and restore the broken reminiscences, pushing Golden Butterfly out of every topic. It appears to be like fairly cool, and I think the various followers of the unique sport may have a pleasant time right here, too.
eighth Millennium: Warfare Towards the Pagan Gods ($29.99)
Hm, actually going for it with that value, aren’t we? This can be a top-down action-adventure sport, and I actually can’t discover a lot data about it in any respect. Even its store description is sort of imprecise. On the very least you possibly can stay up for some good ol’ monster-mashing in a wide range of dungeons. Past that? I’ll depart it to some courageous soul on the market to take a punt on it. My price range is already overdrawn.
Monster Outbreak ($14.99)
Okay, it’s a only a tower protection sport with crafting mechanics. Nothing we haven’t seen earlier than many instances, to make certain. However I just like the pixel artwork, so I’m together with it right here. That’s some respectable pixel artwork. You’ll be able to play with a good friend in native two-player co-op for those who like. May be even higher that approach. This isn’t actually my style of alternative, so I’ll depart it there.
PO’ed: Definitive Version ($19.99)
Look, I do know this sport got here out on a wide range of platforms, however that is at all times going to be related to the 3DO for me. It’s a weird first-person shooter the place you play as a prepare dinner with a jetpack, battling evil aliens that generally take the type of butts. Strolling butts. I imply, virtually all butts stroll, however these are nothing however butts with legs. Nightdive Studios has put its regular strong effort in right here, no matter whether or not or not you suppose the sport is value it. We’ll have a overview quickly.
Erra: Exordium ($19.99)
Hey, it’s one other 2D action-adventure sport. We’re seeing extra of those these days. I ponder if it’s simply the tides. Anyway, this one leans into Sumerian-Akkadian mythology, albeit by way of a Dieselpunk theme. You’re a scientist who has managed to outlive loss of life itself, and now you’re preventing again in opposition to a military of uncontrollable mechanical creatures. The visuals are actually cool right here, and that’s at all times an essential matter relating to this specific style.
Arcadia: Colony ($14.90)
An action-adventure sport with a Misplaced Vikings/Trine-style a number of character set-up. Airi the bunny, Enji the porcupine, and Tazpo the mole crew as much as save their world from an invasion by the Folks of the Sky. You’ll have to make use of every of their distinctive skills to make your approach by way of every space and remedy the puzzles you’ll come throughout. The eating doesn’t look extremely fancy right here or something, nevertheless it appears to have lots of coronary heart put into it.
UNDEMON ($20.00)
A ghost named Luna is attempting to resolve the problems which are tying her to the mortal airplane in order that she will cross on, and she or he wants your assist. Use her skills, gather souls to power-up (is that okay?), and attempt to sniff out the important thing in every degree to maneuver ahead. When all else fails, you possibly can at all times conceal. It appears to be like attention-grabbing, however I haven’t had an opportunity to attempt it but so I’m probably not certain how properly it performs.
Pool Celebration ($19.99)
It’s a celebration sport! For as much as 4 gamers! Native solely! Everybody’s a pool ball for some purpose! We discover our differentiating advertising factors the place we will! A number of sport modes! Most likely fulfilling for those who want one other get together sport! However do you?
Web Technology ($14.99)
Dropped at us by the identical people who launched the Smashing The Battle video games, that is one other motion sport with a colourful, foolish vibe to it. You’re a brand new member of the Metaverse, a spot the place corrupt moderators rule the roost and rubbish data waits round each nook. And also you… need to smash it! Smash all of it. As you clear phases you’ll unlock new strikes, and you may at all times choose up some objects for those who want an extra leg-up. This doesn’t look any deeper than the Smashing The Battle collection, however hey, there’s an viewers for senseless motion.
Dungeon Arsenal ($6.99)
I’m such a baby each time I see the phrase ‘arsenal’. I simply need to shorten the identify of this sport to Dungeon Ar… you realize, that’s probably not related right here, is it? This sort of jogs my memory of the issues we used to see on cell again within the day. Every ground of the dungeon is made up of a bunch of playing cards, and also you flip them over to disclose weapons, objects, and monsters. Nothing too wild about it, however I do know it would scratch an itch for a few of you so right here it’s.
Musashi vs Cthulhu ($4.99)
The well-known warrior Musashi is in an actual bind this time, people. He’s standing in the midst of some bizarre place, and an infinite provide of unspeakable horrors are attacking him from all angles. He has to fend them off through the use of his katana to assault their weak factors, however how lengthy can he maintain out? That one is as much as you, associates. Extra of a rating assault affair than anything. I’ll be reviewing this one, in all probability early subsequent week.
Arcade Archives F/A ($7.99)
Okay, sure, that is one other vertical shooter for the Arcade Archives line. An applicable method to have a good time ten years of Arcade Archives, if nothing else. However go a bit deeper and also you’ll see it is a very particular launch certainly, as Namco’s F/A (Fighter & Attacker) hasn’t seen a house launch prior to now. This can be a 1992 launch, and it’s maybe greatest recognized for its wild techno soundtrack composed by Shinji Hosoe (Ridge Racer) and Takayuki Aihara (Drakengard). Gameplay-wise it’s pretty typical of Namco’s vertical shooter fare, with aerial and floor assaults accessible. The music definitely elevates it. In case you take pleasure in your shooters, choose it up.
Mutant Categorical ($11.99)
A slightly easy side-scrolling platformer, however I like to present first-time publishers the advantage of the doubt. Your good friend Kiki is popping right into a fox, and you must pace by way of fifty-three ranges unfold throughout 4 areas so as to stop that. You’re delivering mysterious packages, and you’re being timed. Go too gradual and also you’ll meet a foul ending. Appears cute, and it’s an earnest effort, on the very least.
Gross sales
(North American eShop, US Costs)
There are a few essential issues to level out in immediately’s inbox. First, there’s an Arcade Archives sale happening. As ever, these video games are very more likely to solely be on sale as soon as. Get them now for those who suppose you’ll ever need them. Second, Minecraft is celebrating its fifteenth anniversary with some gross sales, and relating to the primary sport that could be a very uncommon factor certainly. There are another goodies there and within the outbox (shooter followers, get Rolling Gunner for those who don’t have it already), however I’ll allow you to examine these lists and discover what grabs you.
