CatfishBlues Games has revealed that it will be bringing Hyperlight Ultimate to Nintendo Switch, exclusively for the platform.
The game is a definitive version of Hyperlight EX, a shoot 'em up which fired its way to the New 3DS back in 2016. This new, shiny version is said to feature "refined gameplay and enhanced HD graphics rich in special effects" which simply weren't possible on Nintendo's previous handheld.
We're expecting to receive the first gameplay videos for this one soon, but until then, check out this feature list to learn more about what you can expect to find:
- HD graphics boosted with beautiful special effects (@60fps).
- Refined gameplay with several additions and optimisations.
- Weapons storing for use at will for a more tactical gameplay.
- 2 Players local co-op mode in Arcade, Infinity and Panic game modes.
- 4 Players local VS battles thanks to a new game mode!
- New Online leaderboards with a global ranking system.
- Full HD Rumble support.
- All play-style supported: Handheld, Docked, Tabletop.
- Touch controls to play without Joy-Con.

Wow, just the colours on the 3DS video is enough to give me a headache. Sorry, but I can't see where the player is most of the time.
Not for me I don't think
I remember thinking about buying this on my 3ds, but the screen was way too busy for me. Shooters are hard enough for me with out the added confusion of all that.
It's all been done many times before. Hard pass.
No thanks.
This is exclusive because other manufacturers won't license the game on their systems.
I think it looks cool---i love stuff like Geometry Wars, and this looks like something i'd enjoy.
I like this on the3ds I'll be getting this...
