NEO: The World Ends With You could be close to getting a release date. The game has received a content rating from the review boards in Australia and Germany on March 18, 2021. These ratings could suggest that the game is close to being released, but they also have a tendency to be misleading.
Take this information with a grain of salt, but do expect some information on NEO: The World Ends With You to come out soon.

The Life is Strange series has yet to grace a Nintendo platform, but the ESRB has reason to think that its latest entry is bound for Switch. Life is Strange: True Colors was rated for the console earlier today.
Life is Strange: True Colors was first announced last month, though there has been no word on a Switch release. Either the ESRB made an error here, or Square Enix is saving news about putting it on Nintendo’s platform for a later date.

During Game Live Japan, a Q&A was published with producer Tomoya Asano. Asano was asked about the game’s genre, length, and when more information was shared.

Some pretty concerning news started to spread yesterday regarding an actual health risk while playing Balan Wonderworld. When going up against the final boss, there’s a photo-sensitive epilepsy risk. Those that suffer from seizures or flashing effects in general could be putting themselves in harm’s way.
If there’s one bright spot to the situation, it’s that Square Enix has already addressed the issue, which is a result of an apparent bug. The company says that the game’s day one patch – which should be live – removes any potential health triggers.

Balan Wonderworld final boss fight has possibility of causing seizures
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Update: Square Enix has issued a statement, which says that the day-one patch takes care of the issue. Read the full statement here.
Original: Ahead of Balan Wonderworld’s release tomorrow, players should be aware that the final boss fight is physically dangerous. Unfortunately, due to the graphics and effects that appear on-screen, it may cause seizures. We’re also hearing that even those that aren’t photo-sensitive epileptics may find the fight troublesome to watch.
As mentioned by Game Informer, what’s shown “is not just using flashing effects,” but “it rapid-fires a series of white on background flashes.” We’ve included a video of the action below, but we’d advise watching it at this point.
