Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
NGDEV, the developer of Razion EX and Gunlord X, just recently released its new shoot ’em up game Gunvein that’s inspired by arcade titles from Cave, Taito, and Raizing/8ing. We know that a Switch version is planned, and will likely be debuting in 2023.
Gunvein provides a dynamic bullet hell experience. Players will need to use the lock-on and charged energy blast mechanics to take down enemies. Additionally, there are ways to power up your shot and bombs can be used to clear out the screen. Increasing your score will provide extra lives and currency for the in-game shop.

Digital Foundry’s John Linneman has now weighed in on the situation in the outlet’s latest podcast. After speaking with some developers, he believes Nintendo was at once point toying around with a Switch hardware refresh. However, “that seems to no longer be happening” and the company is apparently pursuing a true successor instead.
