Nintendo Download: Fight Crabs

[Update: 9/10/20 @ 5:25pm CT]:

We knew it was too good to be true! The original press release stated that Hades was coming out on September 16, 2020 for the Nintendo Switch. Nintendo has sent out an update stating that the game is tentatively scheduled for Fall 2020 instead. Bummer! Hopefully we won’t have to wait too long…
