Two Tribes’ EDGE looking likely for 3DS
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Two Tribes will be releasing some of its classic games on the Wii U eShop starting with Toki Tori, which the studio hopes will be ready for launch next week. EDGE and RUSH are two other classic titles Two Tribes will publish before year’s end.
In the case of EDGE, it seems as though a 3DS version is also in the cards. This is something that Two Tribes hinted at previously, but never officially announced. But based on a discovery of ours, it’s now all but confirmed.
A rating for a 3DS version of EDGE recently popped up on the USK. After following up with Two Tribes, we were given a simple response: “More news on this soon!” I’d expect an official announcement in the near future.
