Fae Farm, NBA 2K24, and Super Bomberman join this week’s eShop roundup
The Nintendo Switch eShop is ready to take your order with fresh new titles available just in time for the weekend. This week’s highlights include the magical simulation of Fae Farm, the sporting action of the latest NBA title, and the bomberific antics of Super Bomberman R2.
Fae Farm combines role-playing action with simulation elements to provide a colorfully customizable experience full of magic. Adventure awaits for you and up to three local or online players to tend magical creatures, explore the realm, and build friendships.
Meanwhile, NBA 2K24 needs no introduction. The latest in this long-running basketball series brings past the present alive with a personlized experience featuring NBA and WNBA teams.
If you’re after multiplayer action, then the latest entry in the Bomberman series is sure to hit the spot. We spent some hands-on time with Super Bomberman R2 at a recent Konami event, so check out our thoughts ahead of the game’s release on September 13.
As if that wasn’t enough, there’s also a new demo for LEGO 2K Drive, along with plenty of tempting discounts on existing titles. Check out the full list below and let us know what you’ll be playing this weekend.
