Nintendo eShop new releases (week 04)
Posted 29 Jan 2021 at 07:17 by Dennis Tummers
Welcome to the fourth week of 2021. As January draws to an end, we can find some promising titles releasing on the Nintendo Switch eShop. Cyber Shadow, a fast-paced ninja action game is out this week. Developed by Mechanical Head and published by Yacht Club Games (of Shovel Knight fame), the game promises fast action and influences from games such as Contra, Batman and Shadow of the Ninja, all dressed up in an 8-bit graphical style.
An interesting listing is The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. The game is now available without any of the DLC (which was previously all bundled in in the complete edition) for a reduced price, and the DLC can be purchased separately. So if you want to step in but are wary if the game is for you, you can now do so with just the core game and pick up the DLC later.
As always the full list of new releases, DLC and demos can be found below after the Highlights.
