Corpse Party Blood covered: …Repeated fear. is a few weeks from its Switch release – in Japan that is. While we’re waiting to see if the game will be picked up for the west, we do have some good news for fans overseas.
The listing for Corpse Party Blood covered: …Repeated fear. has popped up on the Switch eShop, and it reveals support for both Japanese and English.

You’ll simply need to purchase the game from the Japanese eShop, which is possible as long as you set up a Japanese Nintendo Account on your Switch system.
