Curious about what’s new on the Nintendo Switch eShop this week? As we eagerly count down the days to the launch of the Switch 2, just around seven weeks away, the current console is still bustling with fresh titles. One standout this week is the exciting action-adventure game, Star Overdrive.
In Star Overdrive, prepare for an exhilarating journey on an alien world. You’ll take control of a high-speed hoverboard, tackling puzzles and fighting fierce foes as you explore varied landscapes. Developed by the indie team at Caracal Games, consisting of 12 passionate creators, Star Overdrive marks their first feature in a Nintendo Direct, with publishing by Plug In Digital.
