Developer Endgame Studios has informed ToT that its eShop action game Fractured Soul will be released in North America on September 13, at an $11.99 price point. Fractured Soul is a sci-fi action game that has players jumping back and forth between two slightly different parallel worlds, one on each screen of the 3DS. This mechanic is used as the basis for insane challenges. For more information, check out our preview from earlier this year.
The $12 price is “less than half of the retail price” decided upon when Fractured Soul was still a packaged release, Endgame managing director Grant Davies said the price, which is higher than most eShop releases, is such “for us not to end up completely broke.”
Davies is happy about Nintendo’s new program of rolling out digital versions of retail games simultaneously. “The more quality products you can find in the eShop the better,” he said. “Gamers need to be confident that when they go to the eShop, they’re getting a quality offering.
