13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim Leaked on Switch on April 12

Atlas has announced the release date of the version Switch 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, the great story of time travel Vanilla ware. This port be available, as confirms its trailer (available on these lines), April 12, 2022.

This port not seem to include any specific news to the new platform; It is the same game that came out in PS4 last year. So at first, you would not need much more: a lack of Vita, Switch seems the ideal platform for a game like this, which, incidentally, has announced another good news: sales version of PS4 just over half a million, a figure that in other contexts might seem small but that seems to be above what I expected Atlas.

Before this 2021 in which the temporary loops are literally the only narrative approach accepted by law, 13 Sentinels already proposed a history of loops and time travel carried out by a group of students involved in a mysterious program to save Japan from an alien invasion. One of the best games of 2020, which does not lack the latest from Vanilla ware are plot twists and surprising revelations to the point of turning them into its cornerstone: it is based cuts, even in the gameplay (plus a visual novel, it is also a... tower defense, a strategy game in real time when you face hordes of aliens defending a position on the map), which 13 Sentinels built himself, and the result is formidable.

Surprising, however, how well it takes this particular nature, which in other hands could have been a disaster:

The way you move Vanilla ware by this chromatic hallucination is, in a word, brilliant. The prologue sets a precedent dangerous for its frenetic pace and strong braid forming with the story of each character; as you progress and unlock new ones, 13 Sentinels not only makes him the superabundance ball but handles it expertly for closing and opening doors at the right times (...), always lead you to new points of interest.
