This Week on Nintendo eShop: Ys IX and Nintendo Points Rewards

After the summer sale last week, there don’t seem any big deals on the Nintendo eShop for now. But that doesn’t mean there are no exciting and fresh new releases for the Nintendo Switch console! Let’s take a look at what’s new in eShop for the first week of July.

Switch New Releases This Week

Kazuya Mishima of Tekken fame finally arrives in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as its newest playable DLC fighter. As a part of Ultimate Fighters Pass Vol. 2, Challenger Pack 10 contains Kazuya, a new stage, and a selection of music tracks from the Tekken franchise. The demos for Square Enix RPG NEO: The World Ends With You and music mixing simulator FUSER are now up as well.

For Switch’s new releases, Ys IX: Monstrum Nox and Suda51’s The Silver Case 2425 are headlining the launch. In Ys IX, you play as Adol once again, but this time he was cursed to become a Monstrum, a powerful being who can exorcise monsters. He must ally with five other Monstrums to both escapes from the city of Balduq and stop the Grimwald Nox, a shadowy dimension on the verge of overflowing into the real world.
