This week on the Nintendo Switch eShop, there’s plenty to get excited about. Leading the charge is the HD remaster of the beloved RPG, SaGa Frontier 2. For the first time, fans can enjoy this 1999 classic on a Nintendo console. The game offers a fascinating approach to storytelling by allowing different characters to experience the same pivotal moments from their own perspectives.
Rift of the Necrodancer is also making noise as it drops onto the scene. This rhythm-infused sequel invites players to join Cadence in a fresh musical showdown. You’ll need to match the beat of original electronic tracks while battling monsters, making for a truly unique and pulse-racing adventure.
On a lighter note, there’s the debut of Disney Villains Café, a whimsical and engaging title. With Yzma from The Emperor’s New Groove at the helm of a mystical potions café, the game brings a touch of nostalgia and humor. It features an interactive storyline with iconic villains such as Jafar and Maleficent. Now, who wouldn’t be curious if Kronk makes an appearance?
Of course, it wouldn’t be a week on the eShop without a slew of new deals and the addition of Nintendo Music tracks to keep you entertained. Let’s dive into this week’s full lineup of new releases and see what catches your fancy.
