A new physical release of Carrion on Switch is coming to retail, according to various store listings.

It’s true that a boxed version of the game was offered last year. However, that was only through Special Reserve Games. This is the first time that we’ll be seeing it at most major retailers.

Carrion, a reverse horror game from Devolver Digital and Phobia Game Studio, first debuted on Switch in July 2020. Read a bit more about the title below.

Astria Ascending review Nintendo Switch

System: Switch
Release date: September 30, 2021
Developer: Artisan Studios
Publisher: Dear Villagers


Nostalgia will always give that sort of feeling of coming back home to something familiar. That same nostalgia, however, can also be driven back not only with the things of the past, but with new experiences that pay homage to the greats of a particular medium. Astria Ascending feels like this in a lot of ways for those that have played JRPGs for a long time, and having been helmed by a collaboration of minds from veterans of some of the genres most illustrious titles and franchises, it’s no wonder why its turn-based gameplay feels both familiar and refreshing. Unfortunately, this same nostalgia can also become a bit of a disservice when relied upon too much and hurts the game in the long run, and while the systems in place for combat are great, it’s the rest of the experience that feels at most times mediocre due to quality of life issues and grindy gameplay.

Thanks to GamesIndustry, we have new insight into the UK gaming market for September 2021.
