What’s new in the Nintendo Switch eShop this week? Although the anticipation for the Switch 2 is building—just a few weeks away now—there’s still loads of new games coming out for the Switch every week. This time, Star Overdrive is stealing the spotlight.
Star Overdrive has players zipping around on hoverboards, tackling puzzles, and facing off against foes on an alien planet. Caracal Games, a small team of 12, developed this adventurous title. While they’ve released other games on the eShop before, Star Overdrive marks their first feature in a Nintendo Direct. Published by Plug In Digital, who previously brought us Mindcop, this game blends fast-paced action with platforming and third-person gameplay, making it one to keep an eye on.
Music lovers have something to enjoy too; the soundtrack from Luigi’s Mansion is now part of Nintendo’s music collection. Additionally, there are plenty of games on sale, including popular titles like Mario + Rabbids and South Park.
Curious about all the new releases? Here’s what’s available:
On the Nintendo eShop, Star Overdrive takes you on a wild ride. You’ll solve puzzles, battle tough enemies, and harness the power of the Keytar, all while zooming across a 3D open world on a hypersonic hoverboard. Discover the alien environments and let your creativity shine as you overcome various challenges. It’s ready to play now!
For those into Nintendo Music, you can dive into Luigi’s Mansion’s spooky sounds with the A Haunting Melody collection. Relive thrilling ghost-hunting moments with these chilling tracks. Available through the Nintendo Music app, this is a treat for Nintendo Switch Online members.
In other activities, there’s “Creator’s Voice,” a fresh video series featuring behind-the-scenes interviews with game developers. Get insights from those crafting games for the Nintendo Switch 2, with new episodes posted every Tuesday on Nintendo’s YouTube channel. This week features Supergiant Games’ team discussing Hades II.
