The Nintendo Switch eShop is buzzing with new activities this week! Among the highlights are the exciting platformer Antonblast and a remastered collection from the Legacy of Kain series. Plus, Tetris is making an appearance, adding another tune to Nintendo Music, and there are plenty of great deals. Let’s dive into the details.
Kicking things off is Antonblast, a lively platformer full of color and chaos, complete with quirky worlds and deals with devil-like characters. This game is all about breaking things apart with dynamite as your trusty tool. What’s unique is that at the end of each level, a timer starts, urging you to race back to the start before everything goes kaboom. We’re in the process of a detailed review, so keep an eye out for our verdict!
Next, the Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered collection is worth noting. This dark fantasy tale, which began in 1996, revisits the saga of the resurrected vampire, Kain, seeking vengeance. Originally following Blood Omen, Soul Reaver brings a fresh perspective to the franchise.
And guess what? Tetris is making a comeback! The classic NES version is now part of Nintendo Switch Online, offering timeless fun on the hybrid console. We’ve given it a go and will chat about it on the upcoming Pure Nintendo Podcast episode.
For music enthusiasts tracking the Nintendo Music app, a fresh soundtrack just landed. We’re welcoming the N64 gem Wave Race into the mix this week. Have you listened to any of these thrilling tunes yet? Share your thoughts with us!
There’s a host of new releases out this week, so be sure to scroll down for the complete list and let us know what’s on your gaming agenda this weekend.
