This week the Nintendo Download has a couple of games I’m really invested in. Besides that, there’s some cool DLC upcoming for Cadence of Hyrule, sales and digital goodies per usual. Lets get started with several featured titles!
Today’s first featured title is one that caught my attention on the eShop’s Coming Soon section last week. It looks visually like Celeste, but Ageless is more of a puzzle platformer. It’s driven by story and has attractive pixel art, so it’s definitely on my radar now. The next game is one I’m incredibly hyped for, especially since I’ll be reviewing it soon. It’s none other than CARRION, and it has you play a monster escaping a laboratory, eating everything in sight and evolving. If you prefer more standard FPS games, Crysis Remastered might be more your cup of tea. If you prefer cyberpunk fun, then Dex might be the adventure for you. And lastly, fans of online gaming with others have Rogue Company to try out. Whew, pretty big start, but there’s more Nintendo Download below.
Remix Your Journey Through Hyrule with a Crescendo of Characters – Revisit the rhythmic action-adventure game Cadence of Hyrule – Crypt of the NecroDancer Featuring The Legend of Zelda for the Nintendo Switch system with a series of exciting new DLC Packs*.
