Radical Rex, which first came out in 1994, is returning on Switch. QUByte Interactive has announced that it will release the game on September 8, 2022.
Radical Rex has a bit of an interesting history as it’s actually a remake of Baby T-Rex, which debuted on the Game Boy in 1993. The title landed on the SNES as well as the SEGA Genesis. In 2019, it was brought back for PC, and it looks like this is what the Switch edition is based on. QUByte Interactive and Piko Interactive are partnering together here.
