Switch eShop

At Tokyo Sandbox last month, Cosen announced that She Is Mermaid?! is coming to Switch. It’s now confirmed for the west as well.

At Anime Central 2018, Sekai Project announced it will localize the visual novel as My Girlfriend is a Mermaid!? A release is planned for both North America and Europe.

West of Loathing

West of Loathing was announced for Switch as a console exclusive during the last Nindies Showcase. Today, Asymmetric revealed that the game is arriving on May 31. It’ll be offered as a digital download on the eShop.

After it originally released on Steam last year, West of Loathing received a great deal of positive feedback. It features a hybrid of point-and-click adventure and open-world RPG gameplay.

The Pinball Arcade

Update (5/21): In addition to North America, The Pinball Arcade can also now be downloaded from the European eShop.


Original (5/11): The Pinball Arcade originally appeared on the Switch eShop last month. The thing is, it was only up for an incredibly short period. FarSight Studios had it removed due to a licensing issue.

A month later, The Pinball Arcade is back up on the eShop – presumably for good. It’s free to download, with a bunch of table packs that can be purchased separately.

Resident Evil 7 Cloud Version

Update: Resident Evil 7 Cloud Version now has a listing on the Japanese eShop, and it’s confirmed that English will not be included. Only Japanese is supported. It’s unclear what that means for any possible release in other territories.


Original: Resident Evil 7 Cloud Version is coming to Switch, Capcom has announced.

As the name implies, Resident Evil 7 will not be launching on Nintendo’s console in the traditional sense. Everything runs through the cloud (the “download” is just 45MB), so you won’t actually be purchasing the full game that can be played offline. You’ll need a stable internet connection while accessing the title.

MixedBig is bringing Broken Arms Games’ Atomine to the Switch eShop this coming Friday. Take a look at some footage in the video below.

Despite only having just announced it at BitSummit last week, Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon is releasing next Thursday. Inti Creates will have it ready on both Switch and 3DS.

At BitSummit, USgamer spoke with Inti Creates president Takuya Aizu to talk more about the new title. Aizu commented on how involved Koji Igarashi is (Igarashi himself also had a few words here), how long it has been in development for, and the relationship to the upcoming Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night.

Enigmatis 2: The Mists of Ravenwood

A listing on the European eShop shows that Artifex Mundi is bringing Enigmatis 2: The Mists of Ravenwood to Switch. A release is planned for May 24.

Enigmatis 2 is a sequel to Enigmatis: The Ghost of Maple Creek, and comes from the developer of Grim Legends. Here’s an introduction to the hidden object puzzle adventure game:

Ikaruga

Earlier in the month, Nicalis announced that Ikaruga is coming to Switch. The reveal was made through social media as well as an official press release.

Had Nicalis had its way, the announcement would have gone down slightly differently. The company actually reached out to Nintendo about revealing the news in a Nintendo Direct, but the Big N “wasn’t interested.”

Atomine is releasing on Switch next week, according to a new eShop listing. MixedBag will be handling publishing duties.

Originally created by Broken Arms Games, Atomine is a twin stick procedural rogue-lite shooter. We have more details and a trailer below.

Agatha Knife

Mango Protocol prepared an update for Agatha Knife a few days ago. The next patch, version 1.0.2, is now available as well.

The latest update addresses a blocking issue. We have more information straight from the developer below.
