    • SteamWorld Heist II – In this highly anticipated sequel to the critically successful SteamWorld Heist game, get ready for an incredible sea adventure! The Great Sea’s waves are becoming more corrosive and eating away at the metal bodies of its robotic inhabitants, thus all is not well there. You’ll guide your motley band of Steambots through deadly accurate bullet ricocheting in thrilling turn-based gunfights as the captain. This time, you’ll have to participate in real-time naval action against opposing vessels while you explore the globe map. However, use caution—there are no turns to be made on the Great Sea. A profession system featuring extensive character customization choices is another new feature in this sequel. With over 150 weapons, tools, and ship equipment components at your disposal, you may carefully assemble your team to best suit the task at hand. When SteamWorld Heist II comes for the Nintendo Switch system today, dive right into the adventure!
    • Cat Quest III – You take on the role of a daring feline privateer sailing the Purribean in quest of the North Star, a long-lost mythological treasure, in this adorable and lighthearted action role-playing game. But take caution—the Pirate King has given the Pi-rats orders to hunt you down, and the seas are teeming with them! Discover a stunning new environment either alone or with friends in local cooperative play*. Use the improved combat system—which now includes weapon changing and more precise attack combos—to engage in intense combat. Additionally, take to the seas and engage in combat aboard your very own ship for the first time in the series!
