Onsen Master was announced for Switch back in June, and we now have a release date from publisher Whitethorn Games and developer Waking Oni Games. The two sides have confirmed that the title is launching on September 1, 2022.
Onsen Master is a hot spring customer management game. When it was first announced, we were given a general summer release window.
Below is an overview of the game with more information:
Onsen Master features arcade-style single and two-player co-op, where players must manage the customers of their hot springs, and prepare and put together the correct ingredients to cure their ailments. Running around the hot springs, wrangling wandering customers, and putting the right concoctions into the right baths can be hectic enough already, but troublesome yokai look to impede players’ excellent service as well.
The soothing waters of Izajima Island are waiting for you! Spring into action and request a key for Onsen Master!
A dark cloud hangs over the island of Izajima, its effects weighing heavily on the inhabitants. Mischievous spirits called yokai are running amok within the island’s hot springs. And the great Onsen Master, keeper of the hot springs and healer of ailments, has mysteriously vanished. Players will take on the role of his apprentice, Mu, in order to restore balance and uncover what happened to the Onsen Master!
