Slipstream physical

Limited Run Games unveiled yet another Nintendo Switch physical release this week, which is Slipstream.

Fans will be able to reserve a copy in just a few days. On top of that though, a Deluxe Edition is planned. This includes the game, deluxe hard case, a poster, keychain, acrylic standee, and CD soundtrack.

Slipstream Blue Hour

Original (5/23): BlitWorks and Ansdor announced today that Slipstream is expanding with its free content expansion known as “Blue Hour”. Switch will be getting it in Summer 2023.

The expansion contains two game modes, three cars, and five new tracks with their respective music tracks. The tracks are set in real world locations – specifically in exotic or unexpected locations in Europe: Marseille, Pompeii, Transylvania, Granada, and Edinburgh. Ansdor has also implemented a fog system and a dynamic lighting system that allows cars’ headlights to illuminate the track in real time. Whereas the main game is more like an early 32-bit title, the expansion is more like a late 16-bit game.

Ahead of its release on Switch eShop tomorrow, 16 minutes of footage of arcade racer Slipstream has emerged. Learn more about the game and check out the footage below:

Slipstream

Publisher Blitworks, along with Brazilian solo developer Sandro Luiz de Paula (ansdor), announced today that they’re bringing Slipstream to Switch. The arcade racer is due out on April 7, 2022.

Slipstream has been in the works for four years. The title features consistent 60 frames per second gameplay, colorful pixel art graphics, and “a soundtrack that draws from synth pop and jazz fusion influences by Stefan Moser, aka Effoharkay”.
