Apex Legends and Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time headline this week’s new Nintendo Switch eShop releases.
When we discovered that Apex Legends was coming to Switch, we were a little dubious. Nintendo’s console is home to some quality ports but getting Respawn’s free-to-play battle royale to run optimally seemed like a difficult task. However, analysis of the game’s trailer bodes well. We hope that porting studio Panic Button has worked its magic once again and that Apex Legends is a step above similarly ambitious games like Overwatch and Warframe.
We’re also intrigued to see how Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time transfers to Switch. Toys for Bob’s platformer sits firmly in the shade of Nintendo’s best Mario games, but it’s a solid and colourful adventure that’s well worth a look once you have grabbed every star in Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury.
Other new Nintendo Switch releases include WRC 9: The Official Game, Bishoujo Battle Cyber Panic!, and Alchemist Simulator.
