The “Metroidvania” side scrolling is a very well-served style of play on the Nintendo Switch, which is especially useful because Konami doesn’t seem interested in making such games. Another member who will be joining soon, on April 23, is Skylia’s prophecy of 7 Raven studios.
This was initially confirmed in a trailer about the March 30 release date that passed us by, but it looks like it could be a solid game.
You are on a mission to defeat an evil power, which is often the way things are, but it also promises RPG elements and various side missions to make the experience a reality. Moreover, the developers are eager to launch the fact that the game can offer a serious challenge, for those who want to grit their teeth and break Joy-Cons while playing.
As always, the challenge for titles like this is to live up to the equivalent of high profiles that dominate the eShop landscape, but it certainly looks like it might be enjoyable.
Is this on your radar?
