Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Early last year, we learned that Fishing Star, which is originally a mobile game, is getting an updated release on Nintendo Switch. Today, the latest issue of Famitsu revealed that the game will be called Fishing Star: World Tour. It’ll contain over 180 species of fish, over 40 different fishing locations and over 70 pieces of fishing gear and equipment. The most noteworthy piece of information about this game, however, is that it’ll support the fishing rod Toy-Con that’s part of the Nintendo Labo Variety Kit, something developer GREE hinted at last year.
Fishing Star: World Tour is set for a digital release on the Japanese eShop on January 31. No word yet on a Western release date.
