Mega Man-Like Platformer Double Cross Secures January Switch Release

We hope you're feeling ready to save the multiverse because 13AM Games' latest action-adventure platformer Double Cross has just secured a 10th January release on Nintendo Switch.

If you've missed the news on this one, Double Cross has players taking on the role of Zahra Sinclair, an agent of R.I.F.T. (Regulators of Interdimensional Frontiers and Technology) whose job it is to maintain peace and order between all dimensions. As Zahra, you'll be collecting a rare element called Upgradium to customise your abilities, and these skills will be needed to sling, swing, and fight your way across various dimensions.

The whole thing has a strong Mega Man vibe to it (which, if you made it past the narrator's constant smugness, you'll have likely gathered from the trailer up above). Alex Rushdy, CEO of 13AM Games, has said the following:

“Double Cross features a robust investigation system that challenges players to find clues throughout their interdimensional travels and uncover the identity of R.I.F.T.’s mysterious attacker. It’s much more than simply finding a clue, as you’ll need to take evidence to the correct R.I.F.T. agent for examination. This gives the game visual novel elements that adds layers of depth to the game.”

Double Cross will be available for $19.99 when it launches on Switch next month.
