Switch eShop

Wanderjahr TryAgainOrWalkAway has previously appeared on a few platforms such as the PlayStation Vita and Steam. According to a listing on the eShop, it’s now coming to Switch.

Wanderjahr promises a “compact RPG with real-time strategy combat and an intriguing story.” Here’s the general premise:

This universe, this reality, there’s a source code behind all of it. We’d know/ We’ve already found it. And, with it, we will cleanse this reality of all evil.

For centuries the entirety of humanity has been working to edit the universe source code. And now this impossibility seems so close to becoming reality. But then they come. Monstrous creatures pour from every corner of the world, bringing them chaos. Is this the final test of our mettle?

The European Switch eShop listing for Wanderjahr has it down for a February 15 launch.

Update: The My Nintendo website went into a little more detail on the process. In Europe, one Gold Point equals 1 cent, so if you have 500 Gold Points, you could buy a game that costs 5€ with those points or get a 5€ discount on a more expensive game.

Also, how many gold points you get per purchase is changing. Here are the new exchange rates for digital and physical games:
