Japanese publisher GameTomo has revealed that Project Nimbus: Complete Edition will receive a worldwide release on Switch on 16th May, bringing new content never-before-seen in the US and Europe along for the ride.

This Switch release is the latest version of the cult mecha game, originally designed and developed by GameCrafterTeam and GameTomo. You'll find the original’s full story and combat present here, but sitting alongside two new modes.

These modes are 'Survival' and 'Warfront'. In Survival, players must fight against endless waves of foes to cement their standing as an Ace mecha pilot; In Warfront, objective-based missions up the ante by requiring the player to survive against infinite odds in a never-ending assault. Here's a handy list of features to give you a little more info:
