Samurai Maiden getting a physical release in Japan with English support
D3Publisher has revealed that Samurai Maiden will have a physical release on Switch in Japan, and not only that, but English is supported (along with Japanese, Chinese, and Korean).
We do know that the title is on track for a worldwide launch. However, currently it appears that Japan is the only region with plans for a physical edition. Since Switch is region free though, any owner can play the game on their system without any issues.
