Especially with the limp Xbox is-it-isn't-it launch .  July 2026 Update : Sony managed a cannon-fire sized self-inflicted injury by announcing the end of physical releases across the end of the PS5 era and the launch of the PS6.

The spooky adventures of Yomawari head to Switch

Fine, gentle-paced but decidedly chilling Vita adventures the Yomawari series, from NIS America. Both games Night Alone and Midnight Shadows are heading to the Switch this October as one release. A year after the Vita release of Midnight Shadows, Switch owners can enjoy saving the young girls from the creatures in the shadows.

Both games are packed with atmosphere, the thrill of exploration after hours and the panic as the monsters emerge. The second game features:

  • A Complete Town to Explore - Enter abandoned homes, climb through junk yards and up mountains, or venture into dark sewers in your search.
  • Two Views of the Dark - Search the night and explore a town as either of Yomawari: Midnight Shadow’s two characters. What you find with one may serve as a clue, or even save the other.
  • Horrors, Oddities, and Mysteries - When Japanese spirits come to life, you’ll encounter horrors birthed in nightmares, oddities that will make you question what is real, and mysteries that may just keep you up at night.
  • Gorgeous Style - Enter the dark with haunting art to view the city and from above, and get close to the heart-pounding moments in beautifully imagined side-scrolling set pieces.
Check out a limited edition physical version on the NISA site.
