Wondering what’s new in the Nintendo Switch eShop this week? Let’s dive right in, starting with a beloved RPG classic that’s making a comeback. SaGa Frontier 2 has been given a fresh coat of HD paint and is now playable on a Nintendo console for the first time ever, offering players a unique way to experience character perspectives during shared events.
Fans of rhythm games should keep an eye on Rift of the NecroDancer, the latest gem in this beat-keeping series. Cadence returns to battle menacing creatures by hitting musical notes in time to an exciting electronic soundtrack, making for a truly engaging musical adventure.
Another exciting addition this week is the whimsical Disney Villains Café, where Disney baddie Yzma steps into the limelight, running a quirky potion café.
