Well, this is it - the final month of 2024 and we're going out with a bang (or rather blast) starting with Antonblast and games like Square Enix's FANTASIAN Neo Dimension.
Just days later you can look forward to some classics including RollerCoaster Tycoon and Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered, as well as the retro platformer Croc which is also getting a revival at some point this month.
We've also got a special shoutout to Mission in Snowdriftland (and it's already available!). Here's the full rundown of games arriving in December:
Antonblast - December 2024

Power Rangers is releasing this month also
heads up, Antonblast got a delay on Switch https://x.com/Summitsphere/status/1862614657959145967
December is always a bit quiet in terms of new releases, but I'm looking forward to playing Antonblast eventually.
Nothing is as exciting as playing Soul Reaver 1 and 2 again. It's been a long, painful wait but it's almost finally here.
Croc's here already?! 😭
Exciting 'new' games
Half are remake/remasters.
Guaranteed to have Antonblast digitally whenever it comes out on Switch (and also on Steam still on the 3rd) as I've supported it on Kickstarter, preordered Fantasian and Legacy of Kain physically discounted from my usual retailer here in Italy, will eventually get Croc for sure, most likely also Savant, maybe also Diesel Legacy and Rollercoaster Tycoon Classic, curious about Neon Beats and that's it for me!
Hm, slim pickings if you ask me :/
Victory Heat Rally's Switch release is on the 12th of this month. Gonna keep on with Xenoblade DE until then methinks
Ufff rollercoaster tycoon all the way
coaster tycoon w00t!
@Yoshi3
😁 hi
Victory Heat Rally and Antonblast for me.
But probably not at launch.
I’m all about those Legacy of Kain remasters - even if I won’t get to them until June supposing LRG is in charge of the phizzy
But Neo Fantasian looks better and better. I’ve missed every other effort from Mistwalker and kick myself for it often. I’ll
Have to jump on it this time!
I'm very much looking forward to Fantasian. I think that's the only December release I'll be getting, unless something else unexpectedly grabs my attention.
Gotta play Antonblast, bit I STILL haven't played Pizza Tower.
I'm definitely getting Croc. I played that game so much on PS1 back in the day and I remember finding it really difficult because of the tank controls. I wonder what it will be like to play today?
I still own both Croc games for PS1 today but I haven't played them in years.
Why is rollercoaster so grossly overpriced.. Atari again… first releasing rollercoaster tycoon touch/mobile (in app purchase for a loop?) and now this, they really don’t care about the franchise.
Croc was my first 3d platformer ever. I loved it as a kid, but I am well aware it is not "good". I don't know if I want the remake because I'm not sure if I'll get much value from it.
I already have the majority of the game memorised in my head. Even the weird secrets like stomping three times on the floating platform in the very first screen of the first level to enter a bonus room with 1ups, or falling off the bottomless cliff near the cogs in one of the ice levels to find a bonus room. Or having the dang pattern of the incredibly annoying sheep challenge completely memorised. Aggh. I don't know if I need to play this remake lol, it's possible I've had enough Croc to last a lifetime.
On a similar note, Rollercoaster Tycoon was also a beloved childhood game of mine. But unlike Croc, this is a game that has infinite replayability, so it may be fun to get it on Switch for the sake of it, even though I still have the original CD ROM somewhere in the house and could easily get it running on my laptop right now if I felt so inclined.... I guess having it on Switch would be a fun novelty. But it's not a priority by any means.
My choice is Croc.
One of nostalgic PS1 platformer game I have ever played since when I was teenager.
@JohnnyMind do you know if Legacy of Kain is getting a general physical release in Europe? I’ve had a quick look online and can’t find anything here in the UK. Which retailer did you pre-order from in Italy?
Is it too late to make an "Xmas shopping" eshop account on someone else's Switch?
Can't wait till I know I'm failing an objective and just cause mass casualties in Rollercoaster Tycoon.
Nothing for me this month.
Power Rangers only if Physical!
Looking forward to Savant Ascent and Lapin, both on the same day!
Lapin is basically "Celeste, but rabbits", and it looks fantastic to me.
I often let those air dash platformers intimidate me, but for bunnies, I'll challenge my fears
Nice selection. Victory Heat Rally, Kain, Croc, Fantasian and Rollercoaster Tycoon makes this a solid December.
I am so down for Roller Coaster Tycoon and Croc. I don't think I'll ever get tired of the ports for Switch. What a killer library.
Interested in a handful of these.
Bring it onnn!
Reading recently that the concept for CROC was originally a pitch by Argonaut Software to Nintendo for a 3D Yoshi game has me interested in picking it up. Always read good things about it, but never played it myself.
That's it? No Fitness Boxing 3: Your Personal Trainer?
@GravyThief Can't currently check it, but I think my copy should be an import one so yeah, unfortunately I doubt there's an European physical release!
Slim pickings.
@JSC016 Iost many MANY hours playing this game on pc, not too sure how good it'll be on switch....but will give it a look.
