8 Bit Legit is bringing NEScape to Switch, according to an eShop listing. It will be available in just a few days, as it’s already scheduled for January 13, 2023.
NEScape was actually funded previously on Kickstarter. In 2020, nearly $40,000 was raised to help bring it to life. The game was made playable on the NES itself, but now it’ll be offered on Nintendo’s current console.
As for the actual game, NEScape “combines the look and feel of an authentic 8-Bit Legit retro game with the modern day element of escape rooms.” We have a bit of additional information below.
