Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap is only available digitally on Switch. That’s about to change though, in one country at least.

Active Boeki K.K., the distributor of Nintendo products in Southeast Asia and the Middle East, will be selling a physical version of Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap in both regions. English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean will be supported.

Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap will be sold for roughly $35. It’s going on sale beginning November 23. If retailers like Play-Asia take pre-orders, we’ll let you know.

Thanks to Roto for the tip.

Digital Foundry published yet another technical analysis today. With Rayman Legends Definitive Edition releasing on Switch today, the outlet has taken a look at how the game performs. There are some surprising finds here.
