Star Wars: Hunters joins this week’s eShop roundup
What’s happening on the Nintendo Switch eShop? This week’s highlight is Star Wars: Hunters, a free-to-play title that brings players together in a multiplayer shooter experience. The game officially comes out on June 4 – in time for The Acolyte, perhaps? – but you can pre-download it right now to be extra prepared for the upcoming arena battles.
The Minecraft 15th anniversary sale continues with some huge discounts on Minecraft titles. It ends on June 4, though, so if you’ve been putting it off, get online now and grab yourself something blocky to play on your Switch.
Meanwhile, with the recent release of Paper Mariol The Thousand-Year Door, Mario Run has a special limited-time event during which you can collect special Paper Mario statues. It’s fun to collect these special items as they appear, so let us know which ones you’ve managed to snag!
There’s a long list of other games to tempt your digital wallets, so let’s get to it! Check out the laest games to hit the Switch below and let us know what you’re playing this weekend.
