We don’t want to make any assumptions about release dates for Switch eShop games at this point, but Earth Atlantis is very likely coming out this week. Nintendo’s North American website originally listed it for last Thursday, but that didn’t end up happening.

Earth Atlantis now has a listing on the US Switch eShop with a date of October 5. Nintendo’s UK site also lists the same date. Hopefully things stick this time around.

Finally, we have the file size for Earth Atlantis. It’s a 562MB download.
