As it turns out, there will be more games coming to the Nintendo Switch on March 26, 2021 than Monster Hunter Rise, because it was announced during today’s Nintendo Direct Mini that Square Enix’s whimsical 3D platformer Balan Wonderworld will also be available for the console on that day.
Coming from Sonic the Hedgehog co-creators Yuji Naka and Naoto Ohshima, as well as a collective of developers and designers known as Balan Company, Balan Wonderworld looks like it will capture a similar vibe to Sonic Team’s more obscure titles, like Billy Hatcher and NiGHTS Into Dreams. In addition to the Switch, the game is also planned to launch for PlayStation and Xbox systems, as well as PC, but it’s not yet clear whether those versions will launch on the same day as the Switch version.
While fairly brief, the new footage shown during the Direct Mini expands on Balan Wonderland’s original announcement with a deeper look at its gameplay. It explains that the game will come with 12 different stages full of collectibles to gather to unlock new stages. Players will be able to navigate these with the help of 80 different costumes with unique abilities, and better yet, they’ll be able to do so with a friend in two-player co-op.
While it’s not all that rare for games like Balan Wonderworld and Monster Hunter Rise, two different games from two different publishers, to launch at the same time, there is something particularly interesting in this case, given that a new Nintendo Switch model is reportedly coming in 2021. That’s not to say that these games could be launching alongside the new Switch, and that the console is launching in March, but until more substantial information emerges, it’s technically possible.
Balan Wonderworld will launch on March 26, 2021 for Switch, and possibly PC, PS4, Xbox One and Xbox Series X as well.
