A pair of new titles for the increasingly popular Nintendo Switch have arrived on the system’s Eshop.
First up is Boost Beast, a sort of action-puzzle game. It consists of match-3-style gameplay, but with the added element of fighting off waves of zombies as you play. You assume the role of “Alec, the king of the dogs,” who uses his army of animals to fight off these monsters. It’s priced at $10/£9.
Today’s other new addition is the obligatory ACA Neo Geo release. This time around, it’s Samurai Shodown, the 1993 fighting game that kicked off the long-running series. It distinguished itself from competitors at the time with a focus on weapon-based combat and a Rage system where, after taking a certain amount of damage, players’ attacks become stronger. Samurai Shodown carries the usual Neo Geo game pricing of $8/£6.29.
This is all an appetizer for tomorrow’s release of Splatoon 2. The colorful shooter introduces new weapons and mechanics while retaining a similar style of game play to that of its popular Wii U predecessor.
