Earlier today, Samurai Shodown V Special was added to the eShop as Switch’s newest game. Take a look at some footage in the video below.

Hamster has determined its next Arcade Archives title for Switch. Psycho Soldier will be out worldwide on April 25, the company announced during a live stream today.

Psycho Soldier is an action game that first debuted in 1986. It was developed by SNK, and acts as a spiritual sequel to spiritual sequel – another arcade title.

The current lineup for Arcade Archives also includes Image Fight, Butasan, Karate Champ, Ninja Gaiden, and Victory Road – almost all of these were confirmed previously. As for the ACA NeoGeo series, it has gone on hiatus for the time being, meaning there are no imminent releases. The company seems to be in the planning stage, and there is suggestion that development may resume at some point.

Samurai Shodown V Special is coming to Switch this week as the system’s latest NeoGeo game, Hamster has announced. A worldwide release is planned for April 18.

Here’s a brief overview of the game:

Last week, Hamster announced that it was partnering with Konami to bring Time Pilot to Switch under the Arcade Archives banner. The collaboration won’t stop there.

During a live stream today, Hamster announced that it will release even more classic Konami games. These include Pooyan, Road Fighter, VS. Gradius, and Yie Ar Kung-Fu.

Specific release dates have not yet been announced. However, each one should roll out over the next few weeks.
