Star Overdrive Featured in This Week’s eShop Lineup

Curious about what’s new on the Nintendo Switch eShop this week? As we eagerly count down the mere seven weeks until the anticipated launch of Switch 2, there’s no shortage of fresh titles making their way to the Switch. The standout this week in the line-up has to be the action-packed adventure game, Star Overdrive.

In Star Overdrive, you’ll find yourself zooming across an alien planet on a hoverboard, tackling intricate puzzles and fending off adversaries. Developed by the indie team Caracal Games, consisting of 12 talented folks, Star Overdrive marks a milestone as their first title spotlighted in a Nintendo Direct. Published by Plug In Digital, who previously gave us the intriguing Mindcop, this game promises a thrilling mix of fast-paced action, platforming, and third-person gameplay, making it a contender to keep on your radar.

Adding to the excitement, fans of game soundtracks will be thrilled to hear that new Nintendo Music is coming, including tunes from Luigi’s Mansion. Plus, there’s a bunch of enticing discounts available, from Mario + Rabbids to South Park, and many more.

Dive into the complete list of this week’s new additions below. What are you planning to dive into this weekend?
