Switch eShop

The latest issue of Famitsu has revealed a new game coming to Switch: Kyogeki Quartet Fighters, a retro shoot ’em up game. It’s being developed by Happymeal and will launch this Thursday, February 22nd, on the Japanese eShop for 1,389 Yen.

As the name suggests, the game also offers a co-operative 4-player mode. The so-called “Kyogeki Mode” allows players to power up their attacks by combining their ships.

It’s is a little bit of a platformer, a little bit of a puzzle game, and a little bit of an art piece. At its heart Fe is a game about communication. It’s easy to locate among the lineage of games that are notable for pushing stories that only an interactive medium can tell: Another World, Ico, and Journey, as three pivotal entries in that genealogy. With its stylized low-poly aesthetic, soothing cello carried soundscape, and wimpy little fox character Fe feels like a game that is content being placed under the larger context of games that have been bolder and newer than it. For what it is, Fe is good. Scattered throughout its eight hour run time are a few really effective and awe-inspiring moments but even these glimpses of inspiration feel complacent in the shadows of earlier prospects.
