Nintendo eShop new releases (week 29)
Posted 23 Jul 2021 at 06:00 by Dennis Tummers
A new free-to-play Pokémon game jumps to the Switch, and will release on mobile as well at a later date. It's Pokémon UNITE, a MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena), where two teams of 5 Pokémon set out to score as many points as possible by capturing wild Pokémon and taking down the enemy team. Teamwork is key in this game.
From the story-tellers of Annapurna Interactive we get Last Stop, an adventure game that follows three interwoven stories full of mystery and the supernatural. With a full voice cast and an original soundtrack, this promises to be another immersive adventure.
As always the full list of new releases, DLC and demos can be found below, after the highlights.

| [Previously featured in Indie World video presentation in April 2021] Description from publisher: Discover a unique combination of branching stories, innovative combat, and classic RPG gameplay in Cris Tales’ exciting and unforgettable exploration of how our actions echo through time. Join the newly awakened Time Mage, Crisbell, and her fantastical companions in a fantasy world facing a grim future. The powerful Time Empress and her forces threaten to bring about a cataclysm tearing apart Crystallis and the other four Kingdoms of the region. To stop the Time Empress and rewrite the future of the land, you will embark on a harrowing journey across the kingdoms, meeting and recruiting powerful allies to aid in the fight. Master their abilities and Crisbell’s unique Time Magic to overcome mighty foes: send them into the past to face their weaker, younger selves; to the future where they’ve succumbed to all the damage of a poison applied in the present; or create your own strategies in this one-of-a-kind combat system. Your choices in this world will have far-reaching consequences for everyone you meet. Peer into the past, act in the present, and watch as your choices dynamically change the future -- all on one screen as you play! | ||

| [Previously featured in Indie World video presentation in April 2021] Description from publisher: Last Stop tells three interconnected tales featuring three playable main characters. - Donna, a spaced-out high-schooler who feels trapped by her stifling home life and her overprotective big sister. Away from home, Donna seeks teenage thrills with her friends Becky and Vivek, but gets more than she bargained for when the trio become unexpected kidnappers in a game of amateur detective gone wrong. - John, an overworked middle-aged single dad. Burdened with debt and the pressures of being an only parent, John jealously pines after the free and easy life of his twenty-something bachelor neighbour, Jack. When the pair unwittingly fall foul of a vengeful stranger, a cursed artefact threatens to transform their lives forever. - Meena, a ruthlessly ambitious professional who struggles to find the same satisfaction with her family that she does in the thrill of her work. As Meena vies with an upstart colleague for a crucial promotion, something ancient stirs in the basement beneath her workplace. | ||
