The Jurassic Park retro collection arrives on Nintendo Switch this week, along with plenty of games featuring trains.
🛍 Monday, November 20 — Sunday, November 27
Last week saw plenty of heavy hitters land on the Switch eShop, including the refreshed Super Mario RPG, Hogwarts Legacy, and a new Naruto brawler — this week however is not quite as momentous, but there's a treat for Jurassic Park fans, and seemingly plenty of games for train fanatics. 🚂 Choo Choo!
As ever, I've taken a look through all of the upcoming releases (there's just over 30 this week), and compiled a list of all of them. Below you'll find what games are coming to the Nintendo Switch over the next seven days, alongside a short description of each, and a link out to more information (including trailers).
It's a real mixed bag, including a game about kinetic sand, a morphing frog survival title, and a retro Jurassic Park collection. Let's get to it!
🗓 Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games:
Monday, November 20
- Euro Truck Driver Simulator — A straightforward enough, realistic trucking sim that's set across Europe. (Nov 21 in U.S.)
- In Stars and Time — This black and white turn-based RPG looks interesting, it has a time looping mechanic at its core.
- Swim Sacabambaspis! — A simple arcade game that's about helping a little fish that seemingly can't swim all that well. (Nov 21 in U.S.)
- Train Driver Simulator — This is another sim game, but this time about trains.
Tuesday, November 21
- 📦🎮 Dyschronia: Chronos Alternate - Definitive Edition — It looks like this game started life as an episodic VR title, but is now getting a console version that brings together the three-part murder mystery adventure. (Physical release)
- Furniture Flipper Simulator 2023 — A sim game in which you have to restore pieces of furniture and give them a new lease of life.
- 📦 Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection — There's a bundle of seven various dinosaur games from the 8-bit and 16bit era. (Physical release via Limited Run — it's sold out right now though)
- Worldless — A 2D adventure platformer with turn-based combat and what's described as a 'mind-bending' narrative.
Wednesday, November 22
- Settris — This looks to be a more relaxing take on the typical 'arrange blocks' puzzler.
Thursday, November 23
- Alina of the Arena — I like how the name kinda rolls off the tongue — anyway, it's deckbuilding tactical roguelike featuring a female protagonist.
- Charrua Soccer: Pro Edition — An arcade-style football game with a chibi-look.
- Colored Effects — 2D puzzle platformer with a color switching mechanic.
- Deleted — You play as a drone in this twin-stick shooter roguelite.
- Evil Diary — The 'fierce heroine' Eve takes on enemies in this 2D post-apocalyptic action game.
- Starlight Drifter — You're the captain of a starship in this sci-fi RPG meets visual novel. M for mature.
- Super Solitaire — It's the classic card game.
- Tallowmere 2: Curse of the Kittens — This was first released a few years ago. Now this action roguelike meets 2D platformer is on Switch. M for mature.
- Train Valley 2: Community Edition — Alright, I quite like the look of this train-tycoon management sim.
- Witchtastic — This is a 2 to 4 player co-op game that's all about brewing magic potions at speed. (Nov 22 in U.S.)
Friday, November 24
- Final Shot — This top-down shooter is giving me Hotline Miami vibes.
- Frogvival — This is a rather quirky looking survival title in which you play as a frog who can devour other animals and then mutate based on what has been eaten. Remember Cubivore for GameCube?
- 📦 Guns and Spurs 2 — A basic looking wild west action adventure. (Physical release)
- Nora: The Wannabe Alchemist — This point and click adventure features magical gardens and witches aplenty.
- 🎮 Snakebird Complete — A bundle of two colourful puzzle games. There's a demo available.
- Train Traffic Manager — Yet another train-based game. This time, it's a strategy puzzler with over 80 levels.
Saturday, November 25
- ASMR Slicing — A weird looking kinetic sand ASMR cutting game. I guess it won't make any mess at least.
- Astro Miner — This is a budget two-player action game about mining space minerals with a vacuum.
- Criss Cross — A Japanese visual novel.
- Drawing Carnival — A drawing app with lots of different art styles to play with.
