UPDATE: Death Road to Canada‘s publisher, Ukiyo Publishing, has delayed the game until further notice after the recent terrorist attack in Toronto… “We feel it would be deeply inappropriate to launch the game at such a time,” said Paul Hann, Managing Director of Ukiyo Publishing. “We would like to express our deepest condolences to everyone affected by the tragic events in Toronto.”
ORIGINAL STORY: It looks like another big batch of Switch games will be added to the Nintendo eShop over the next seven days. Here’s what we can look forward to this week…
Ubisoft will bring South Park: The Fractured But Whole to the Switch on Tuesday, April 24. This time out, the boys are skewering superhero movies, and players will be able to “create [their] own superhero, build up [their] notoriety and use [their] superpowers to save South Park.” Also next week, Rocketcat Games will bring Death Road to Canada, their procedurally-generated post-apocalyptic adventure game, to the Switch on Wednesday.
But if you’re looking for something to download today, Natsume has re-released Wild Guns, a cult classic originally available for the Super NES, as Wild Guns Reloaded. This version of the game will include new characters and modes, as well local multiplayer support for up to four players.
You can learn more about the rest of this week’s additions to the Nintendo eShop (including Real Bout Fatal Fury Special, Gal*Gun 2, and more) after the break.
