If you're looking for a new tower defence game to get stuck into this Christmas, you might want to keep an eye out for Defentron.
A 3D tower defence title set in an '80s-style virtual universe, Defentron has you coming up with the best strategies to fend off waves of pesky computer viruses. You see, the action actually takes place inside a computer system, as detailed in the game's eShop description:
"Get ready and battle for the ultimate upgrade. Defentron, the retro-futurist computer system is trying to safeguard itself from malicious viruses that seek to control its core.
Use strategy to upgrade your lines of defense and become the most powerful security system ever known.
Think like an 80s software. You will face fast, hard, resilient enemies, capable of regenerating or splitting when destroyed, returning to the battlefield. Nobody will be safe until the last of the living enemies falls.
Will you be able to save Defentron from the enemy threat? It all depends on you."
It's launching on Switch on 17th December for $9.99. Will you be downloading this one?

More the merrier when it comes to Tower Defense games. Love them on Switch.
Am hoping we will eventually see Dungeon Warfare 2 as well. First was extremely addictive and cheap to boot.
Star Fox Guard port would be nice too.
One of my favourite genres. Is this already out on other systems? If it reviews well, I'll be grabbing it.
The Switch is lacking in TD games imo. Love Defense Grid 2, but most other TD games I've picked up (there aren't many) haven't been great.
Really looking forward to this one! More tower defence games the merrier 😀
Looks a bit basic for the cost...
I’m dying for a good TD game on switch and haven’t found any that meet my standards...
Would live a good recommendation if anyone has one?!
I think "80's style" is not really accurate. It has more of 90's-2000 vibe, think Wii games.
@TimboSlice I've spent a lot of time in Bloons TD 5, Dungeon Warfare, Pixeljunk Monsters 2 and Defense Grid 2. Played a few other TD games as well but weren't nearly as enjoyable. May be worth checking them out if you haven't already.
I would kill for a Robotron reboot.
@Bermanator Ultratron on the wii-u is incredible. I never played robotron, but apparently it’s a spiritual successor. Has that classic arcade feel.
GREETINGS, PROGRAMS!
@TimboSlice defence grid 2 is worth a look in my opinion if you haven’t played it.
