Chronus Arc is heading to Switch next week, a listing on the Japanese eShop reveals. The RPG had been announced for the system back in October.

For those who missed it the first time around, here’s an overview and trailer:

HandyGames, in partnership with developer Honig Studios, announced today that it will publish El Hijo on Switch next year. It’s due out sometime in 2019.

El Hijo is “a non-violent, spaghetti-western stealth game” following a six-year old who “must always sneak past the dangers of his world.” When he overcomes challenges, “he gains self-confidence and cunning and with it more schemes to get past his foes. Locations include a remote monastery, a harsh and unforgiving stretch of desert, and a frontier town rife with crime and villainy.

Wired Productions and Caged Element have more plans for its futuristic combat racer. Today, the two companies unveiled a roadmap for the game that highlights what’s to come for the game.

The team is working on game balancing enhancements, new tracks and modes, and more. 2019 will also bring about a new racer series in the competitive sphere.
