Switch eShop

System: Switch
Release date: November 17, 2017
Developer: Two Tribes
Publisher: Two Tribes


In RIVE, you control a spider-mech that is piloted by a loud mouthed, raunchy captain as he tries to escape a space warehouse that constantly pours threat after threat his way. As far as story- that’s as much as you’re going to get, aside from awkward one-liners and poor pop culture references. The story never grows into much more than that, but that’s completely fine. A game like RIVE doesn’t need a huge encompassing tale to keep you invested, just the quick paced action of the 7ish hour campaign will keep you invested enough.

Unepic was confirmed to be releasing on Switch back in August. Now it seems that we have a release date.

Over on the eShop, Unepic can actually be pre-loaded right now. This is for both North America and Europe. Both stores list the game for December 15, so it appears that’s when it will be launching. 

Unepic takes up 221MB on Switch, in case you’re wondering.
