Nintendo Digital Download: Slay Creatures & Defy Your Teachers
We’re entering the last few weeks of 2019 and they’re going out with a whimper rather than a bang when it comes to Switch eShop releases. Just a few months ago we were getting upwards of 45 games a week and now we’re down to a handful. Don’t worry though, there’s plenty on the system to play and once the new year starts we fully expect the releases to pick up as well.
OFFICIAL PR:
This week’s Nintendo Download includes the following featured content:
- Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch
- Dauntless – Join millions of players in Dauntless, the fastest-growing online* action-RPG, and explore a massive, free-to-play online world. Stand together and slay Behemoths with your friends from all over the world with true cross-play. Plus, Nintendo Switch players receive an exclusive Skyfighter Armor and Skymetal Weapon set. Live for the hunt!
- The Talos Principle: Deluxe Edition – Tasked to solve a series of more than 120 complex puzzles, players will divert drones, manipulate laser beams and replicate time to prove their worth.
