Switch eShop

The Japanese Switch eShop has updated with a new upcoming game. The horror visual novel Rei-Jin-G-Lu-P will be available on August 3, according to a listing on the store. It will cost 3,000 yen.

Rei-Jin-G-Lu-P previously came out on mobile before coming to the PlayStation Vita. That version featured revamped visuals and new scenarios with full voices for CG events. On Switch, Rei-Jin-G-Lu-P should be based on the Vita release.

We’ve included the Switch trailer for Rei-Jin-G-Lu-P below.

Vblank Entertainment is currently working on Shakedown Hawaii for Switch. But before that game is ready, it looks like the developer is bringing over a previous game: Retro City Rampage DX.

A listing on the European eShop lists Retro City Rampage DX for Switch. Although a release date is not officially set, the store lists the title for July 27.

Here’s an overview of Retro City Rampage DX from the listing:

Boost Beast, Arzest and Arc System Works’ “beat’em-up puzzle game”, is coming very soon to Switch. The game’s official site has opened, revealing a release date of July 20. Pricing is set at $9.99 / €9.99.

We’ve included an HD version of Boost Beast’s trailer below. You can also read up on a comprehensive overview with more details.

Hyper Light Drifter

During the early days of Hyper Light Drifter, Wii U was targeted as one of the game’s platforms. But sadly, that version was eventually cancelled due to technical issues.

A release of Hyper Light Drifter on Nintendo platforms seemed to have been ruled out. However, since the big N has a new, more powerful console on the market, Heart Machine is now “looking into” Switch.

Beach Buggy Racing is making its way soon to Switch, according to the European eShop. It could be arriving as early as next week based on a listing from the store.

Beach Buggy Racing is a kart racer that previously came out on other platforms. It features six game modes, fifteen tracks, various power-ups, and more.

We could be seeing Beach Buggy Racing in Europe on July 27 assuming the eShop listing is accurate, and likely in North America soon as well. Find a bunch of game details and a trailer below.

Yesterday, a listing for Infinite Minigolf appeared on the European Switch eShop with a release date of July 24. It seems to have been off, though only slightly.

Zen Studios has now announced that Infinite Minigolf officially launches on July 25. Better yet, cross-platform user created course sharing is confirmed. If a course is created and shared via Steam, the same course can be shared with players on Switch, PS4, and Xbox One (and vise versa).
