Flashback is experiencing a slight delay in Europe. The game has been postponed to June 19, applying to both the digital version and collector’s edition. It still appears to be on track for June 7 digitally in North America (the collector’s edition is looking like a July release).
Flashback for Switch is a new version of the SNES classic. Players can choose between the original 1993 experience and Modern mode, which contains post-FX graphic filters, remastered sound and music, a new “Rewind” function that’s variable according to the level of difficulty, and tutorials.

When Microids properly announced Flashback 25th Anniversary a couple of months ago, it was accompanied by some news about a collector’s edition. The thing is, there were only plans to release it in Europe and Australia.
It appears that the situation has changed since then. Amazon is now taking pre-orders for the Flashback 25th Anniversary Collector’s Edition, indicating that it will be available stateside.
The Flashback 25th Anniversary Collector’s Edition includes a physical copy of the game, retro cartridge-style metal case, exclusive numbered metal card, instruction booklets, soundtrack, and exclusive collector’s box.
