Eagle Island coming soon to Switch

Pixelnicks has confirmed that it will be bringing the platformer Eagle Island to Switch. It was previously only confirmed for PC.
Eagle Island may actually end up on Switch at the same time as the PC version, though that depends on how easy it is to align them. Although Pixelnicks is currently targeting a February launch, it could slip into March depending on how long it takes to get through Nintendo’s approval process.

Yesterday, Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid was revealed, and it’s coming to Switch. nWay, which made the mobile game Power Rangers: Legacy Wars, is also working on this title. Despite that, Battle for the Grid isn’t a port.
Power Rangers: Legacy Wars has been built from the ground up for consoles. Additionally, there will be new battle mechanics and different movesets for each character. Something that also may lower concerns is that pro fighting game player Justin Wong is helping out development on balancing the characters.
Power Rangers: Legacy Wars is launching digitally on Switch in April.
