Launching later this week on Nintendo Switch is Delta Squad, a twin-stick shooter from Eskema Games and Ratalaika Games.
Said to be "inspired by the ’90s, but with modern gaming mechanics incorporated", Delta Squad is an arcade-style shooter which can either be played alone or alongside three other friends in local co-op. You'll be playing as the titular Delta Squad, doing battle against a maniacal overlord who will stop at nothing to achieve global domination.
A press release for the game says that players will need to take full advantage of upgrading their skills in a bid to deal maximum damage and overcome the enemy threat. Here's a quick feature list:
Features
- Gorgeous 3D graphics
- 50 missions across 5 levels
- Ambient soundtrack
- Local co-op support for up to four players
- The option to play any of the 5 levels you want for a quick gaming session
It's actually launching today on PS4 and Xbox One, but Switch owners will have to wait ever so slightly longer until this Friday, 1st November. It'll cost $5.99 / 5.99€ / £5.99 when it goes live on the eShop.
Worth having a go at that price? Let us know if you're sold on this one with a comment below.

Local co-op and good price.
Why can't Housemarque port all their games to Switch?
This is a housemarque game?! Yes to all Housemarque games coming to Switch!
Looks ok. Not much variation seen in that trailer though.
@60frames-please If only. If Housemarque games were on Switch, we won't need to play trash like this.
Now if only they applied the same filter as they did on the real-life display thing the trailer starts with, it would look way cooler.
But it looks alright! Not sure if it's my cup of tea, but more variety is a good thing.
The price sure is right on this one as it looks really fun.
And no Physical release...common that way I can do local Switch lan with one game.....and everyone can enjoy killings...
I'll be having some of that for that price
@GhostGeneration
Yeah was just going to say that movement speed of the characters looks glacial....it's supposed to be an action game, not a walking simulator!
Yeah a 90's flash game
@nintendolie Because they whine like babies when they don't shift millions of copies and they are probably upset at the prospect.
@GhostGeneration yeah not too impressed with the trailer. As many twin stick shooters as I have they really need something special.
Looks ok, seems worth a pick up at the right price
