Shovel Knight first appeared nearly three years ago. Despite that, the game did incredibly well on Switch at launch.

Yacht Club’s David D’Angelo told GamesIndustry that Shovel Knight “sold more units out of the gate than any other platform.” However, he also cautioned that the eShop is beginning to become more crowded, and believes Nintendo needs to find an easier way of highlighting both new and old titles.

D’Angelo said:

“I believe many developers right now are experiencing the same phenomenon. At the moment, games definitely stand out when they launch and consumers are excited to purchase, but at this rate there will be an over-abundance of games. We hope Nintendo updates the eShop to make it easier to highlight and find new and old titles.”

Arcanity has announced that its single-player RPG Tanzia is in development for Switch. The game features a mix of fast-paced strategic combat with elements of favorite classic RPGs in an open 3D world of magic and monsters. You’ll explore a luscious island setting filled with various characters, all the while partaking in a story of the legendary hero who’s destined to save his world from the biggest threat it has ever seen.

Tanzia’s story was created in collaboration with Kevin Saunders. Saunders previously worked as a senior designer on Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, lead designer on Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer, and project director on Torment: Tides of Numenera.
