Merge Games has officially announced that it has signed with Digerati to bring out a retail version of the survival-horror game The Coma: Recut on Switch. Though it’s already out on the eShop, a physical release is set for May.

Here’s a rundown of The Coma: Recut for those who haven’t played the title previously:

The Zoids franchise has been around for over thirty years, involving model kits, anime series, and more. The series is now being revitalized once again as Zoids Wild.

Announced today, Zoids Wild will encompass into new model kits, anime, manga, and more. Most interesting of all, at least for us, is an entirely new game for Switch.

Unfortunately, details about the title are nonexistent at present. But given how the Zoids Wild cross-media project will be debuting in Japan this summer, we could be receiving details soon. Takara Tomy also has interest in expanding the new series overseas, though it’s unclear if this will apply to the Switch game.
