Following its announcement in Famitsu this week, the official website for the new Switch version of WorldNeverland: Elnea Kingdom has opened. You can access it here.

WorldNeverland: Elnea Kingdom, a simulation title, was first released for smartphones where it has a user rating of 4.3 out of 5. On Switch, the vertical format will be swapped out for a horizontal interface and will not require an internet connection to play after the initial download. However, the Switch and mobile versions will not be compatible. Pricing is also “not yet fixed.”

WorldNeverland: Elnea Kingdom launches for Switch in Spring 2018 in Japan. It has yet to be announced for the west, but the game’s website shows an “English (US)” language option, though it’s currently disabled. This could be a sign of an overseas release in the future.
