Is Nicalis planning a physical version of Elliot Quest for Switch?

Elliot Quest arrived on the Switch eShop last October. It may now be receiving a physical version, courtesy of Nicalis.

A new rating for Elliot Quest was added to the ESRB database, which is fishy in itself. The listing doesn’t mention it, but the classification site’s homepage lists Nicalis as the “Company”.

Nicalis has previously asked fans about games they’d like to see be given the physical treatment. We can’t really think of anything else that this rating would mean for Elliot Quest aside from a retail edition, though technically nothing is confirmed at present. We have more details about the title below, along with a trailer.

After Elliot’s wife disappears, he falls sick and attempts to take his own life–only to discovers that he can’t die. Plagued by nightmares and growing weaker by the day, Elliot seeks out a local Sage, who tells him that he’s the victim of a rare curse. A demon called a Satar is slowly consuming Elliot’s vitality. If Elliot can’t find a cure to the curse before it’s too late, he too will become a Satar. His only hope is to ask for the help of one of the island’s Guardians, who have kept the Satar from taking over Urele.

Explore a vibrant open-world filled with hidden secrets and mysterious Guardians that can help cure Elliot’s curse of immortality. Throughout this adventure you’ll collect countless abilities and spells, quest through 5 dungeons and defeat 16 unique bosses along your way to unlocking multiple endings.
