Death Squared is another interesting title heading to the Switch eShop, having previously landed on other current-gen systems and PC. It's a co-op puzzle game that allows up to four players, which will work nicely with the local multiplayer focus of the Switch.
Developer SMG Studio has now confirmed a 13th July release date (it costs $19.99USD on other systems), so it's not too far away. The Switch version will also have some exclusive content - check out the trailer and details below.
Escort a colorful crew of cuboid companions through an insidious science facility where danger lurks around every corner. To find a way through this murderous maze and escape to safety, players must hone their communication skills and solve puzzles through a process of trial and error, as the game introduces new rules and mechanics tailored around teamwork.

Each robot must make it to their respective color-coded waypoint, navigating past deadly devices like spikes, lasers and other nefarious traps. While one false move can spell death for the entire team, as every player must survive to progress, every misstep comes with newfound knowledge and an instant respawn to put that information to use.
On top of featuring a campaign with 80 single-to-two-player story levels, 40 up-to-four-player party stages and unlockable vault content, Death Squared's Nintendo Switch release will feature all-new puzzles unseen in the previously-released PlayStation 4, PC and Xbox One versions.
Are you looking forward to this one on the Switch eShop?

$20? Hhmmm. Its aesthetics remind me of Rush and Edge on Wii U. They're regularly on sale and you can pick up both games for just €2. Or are otherwise €4 for the pair. They're made by Two Tribes, so you know they're good.
This actually looks pretty interesting as I'm into puzzle games. $20 on other systems...we'll see what it costs on Switch. If its $20 I'll get this one, and it comes out soon. Nice!
If only I had real friends who'd wanna play with me ...
"Death" sounds very harsh for me as a game title.
Nope, no thanks.

Hello.
Do you play Nintendo games such 3DS or Wii U ?
@BradC40 It is $14.99 for Switch
Looks fun. I'll definitely consider it if any of my friends show interest in giving it a go.
It looks like the spark locks mini game from Skylanders.
Great! I have been waiting for this since I saw the announcement! Does it have inline multiplayer?
I think it's $14.99 on the Switch eShop. I was just looking at the price and release date on there.
That said, the game looks like it could be a lot of fun cooperatively. My wife and I are in the habit of having couples over to hang out with us, and this could be a fun game to play with four people.
This and that rocket fist are only £8.99 on the U.K store, for once we get the better price. And both out on my birthday and both insta buys.
In comparison that Wind Waker clone is also $15 in the states but it's £13.49 in the U.K.
Makes no sense.

Sweet! Then its a day 1 buy for me. Just got Arms and love it, Splatoon 2 is coming soon, and Steamworld Dig 2 is supposed to be out soon too. This will be a good summer from Nintendo!
Do I need friends to play this game?
Now if you can get Divinity Original Sin :v
I am very excited after seeing that trailer. This game looks like it could be a lot of fun drunk.
I will just buy it and play it when I feel like it... it looks like an adult Snipperclips feel game for me and my girlfriend...
@GoldenGamer88 was thinking about this. I have 1 but not 3.
