The Wii U eShop has often been a saving grace for the home console, delivering some intriguing and enjoyable download-only games to Nintendo gamers. It looks like another is on the way, too, with Thunder Lotus Games planning a Summer release of Jotun: Valhalla Edition.

Previously funded on Kickstarter and released to some acclaim on PC, this one adopts an isometric view - bringing to mind titles such as Bastion in its style. An excerpt of an official description is below.

Jotun is a hand-drawn action-exploration game set in Norse mythology.

In Jotun, you play Thora, a Norse warrior who died an inglorious death and must prove herself to the Gods to enter Valhalla.

Valhalla Edition contains Valhalla Mode, a boss rush mode with even fiercer versions of the already challenging jotun!

It certainly looks promising, with that Summer release set to carry a price tag of $14.99 in the US. Check out the PC trailer below and let us know what you think.

Thanks to Ryan Millar for the heads up.
