Action adventure game The Last Hero of Nostalgaia heading to Switch

Publisher Coatsink and developer Over the Moon have confirmed that they’re putting The Last Hero of Nostalgaia on Switch. It’s due out on June 20, 2023.

On the same day, players will be able to purchase new DLC dubbed The Rise of Evil. This adds the Easymaker’s Retreat and The Builder’s Sanctuary as new areas and involves defeating three new bosses.

More information about the action adventure game can be found in the following overview:

The Last Hero of Nostalgaia is set in a world that celebrates videogame nostalgia, blending the complex systems and dark aesthetics of its Souls-like inspirations with a reference-packed comedy tale told by a cynical narrator never short of a sharp putdown. The game delivers tough but fair combat, challenging bosses for you to overcome, engaging narrative mechanics rich in lore and a shockingly-rich character creator (kind of). The Last Hero of Nostalgaia draws on the best of the games that inspired it while delivering a humorous and innovative twist on the genre, along with a boatload of nudge and wink references that will delight videogame fans.

The Last Hero of Nostalgaia offers players the chance to enjoy tackling the game’s tough battles and laugh at its funny moments with friends thanks to an online co-op mode. Whether alone or alongside a friend, it’s time to jump into the world of videogames and find what’s causing the blight of pixelation causing it to collapse backwards in time. Nostalgaia is fading away to nothing: even the memories of our proud, cherished video games are being lost. Now, with our fidelity all but gone, at the very brink of extinction, hope emerges to fight back.

The Last Hero of Nostalgaia will cost $24.99 / €24.99 / £19.99 on the Switch eShop. The Rise of Evil DLC will go for $7.99 / €7.99 / £6.69.
