Frozenbyte put out a new Nine Parchments video today showing off the cast of playable characters in Nine Parchments. It includes a special appearance by Amadeus, a character from the Trine series.

Those who stop by Gamescom at the Indie Arena Booth or PAX West at the Indie Megabooth can play Nine Parchments on Switch for the first time. It will include four player co-op and a boss battle against a dangerous, firebreathing Treasure Mantis. The Japanese version will be playable at Tokyo Game Show in September, by the way.

Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 11 Comments

Telltale Games has been speaking pretty positively about the Switch, and there have been several rumors and retailer listings suggesting that their games might be coming to the system (other than Minecraft: Story Mode). Now, a job listing has popped up which suggests that Telltale is intending to continue their Switch support. They’re looking for a “Nintendo Compliance Specialist” – essentially someone who will be responsible for ensuring that Telltale’s games will meet the technical standards of the Switch and also assist with other publishing & quality assurance issues. You can check out the full job listing here, if you’re interested.

Of course we will have to see what happens, but it certainly seems like Telltale Games are committed to supporting the Switch long-term if they’re specifically hiring someone for a position like this.
