Owlboy

In a Reddit AMA held today, D-Pad Studios commented on the performance of Owlboy on Switch. While we don’t have specific numbers, the team is very happy with the results thus far. The game managed to turn a profit within just 24 hours of its launch on Nintendo’s console, which took D-Pad “by complete surprise”. The success bodes well for funding future projects, according to co-CEO Jo-Remi Madsen.

Owlboy released on the Switch eShop back in February. A special limited edition will arrive in July.

Okami HD Limited Edition

Capcom has indicated that Okami HD for Switch won’t have a physical version in North America and Europe. But in Japan, the situation is much different.

Japanese Switch fans will in fact be treated to a retail release. The e-Capcom store shows a bunch of different options, featuring a soundtrack CD and more.

It’s unclear what language options will be included in the final game. If English is available, then overseas fans should be able to import a copy without any issues.
