August 5: Publisher ProbablyMonsters has officially unveiled one of its first titles: Storm Lancers, a fast-paced roguelike heavily inspired by ‘80s anime and cartoons. The game is set to arrive on Nintendo Switch this fall.
Designed to be an accessible yet intense 10 hour experience, Storm Lancers features stylish combo-based combat, local co-op gameplay, and high replayability. It also marks the debut of the new publisher, which is led by industry veterans Jim Veevaert (Microsoft, Zynga) and Seth Thompson (Blizzard).
According to the team, Storm Lancers was built to be dynamic and addictive, delivering non-stop action meant to keep players’ reflexes sharp and their hearts racing. With its bold visuals and cooperative play, the game aims to provide a nostalgic yet fresh experience.

Another metal display has just gone live on My Nintendo for Switch Online members, which is for Super Mario Bros. 2.
