July 23: SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos just came out on Switch yesterday, and it didn’t take long to receive confirmation of a physical release.

While the game won’t be sold at general retail, there will be a boxed version from Pix’n Love. The company has announced a Collector’s Edition and Deluxe Edition, which will be sold alongside a standard version. Details about the special editions have not been provided at this time.

Pix’n Love is based in Europe, but the company does ship elsewhere. That means fans in North America should be able to get a pre-order in as well.
