Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for May 28th, 2024. Okay, I have to apologize. I planned on having some reviews ready today, but I played 1000xRESIST for several hours instead. The good news is that I should have my review of that game ready tomorrow, but that leaves us with a pretty sparse article for today. We have a few new releases to check out, and we’ll do just that. We also have the new and expiring sales, and that’s quite nice. That’s pretty much it, but it is what it is. I think if there’s anything to take away here, it’s that you should only play 1000xRESIST if you don’t have anything important to do. Let’s get to business!
News
Bleach: Brave Souls Coming to Switch
Back in 2015, we posted about Bleach: Brave Souls (© Tite Kubo/Shueisha, TV TOKYO, dentsu, Pierrot) getting a worldwide release on mobile. We were requested to include that copyright, and will be doing so 9 years later as well. Today, KLab announced that the 3D action game Bleach: Brave Souls (© Tite Kubo/Shueisha, TV TOKYO, dentsu, Pierrot) will be released on Switch this summer following its launch on iOS, Android, PC, and PS4 platforms. To coincide with this launch, a new Bleach: Brave Souls (© Tite Kubo/Shueisha, TV TOKYO, dentsu, Pierrot) achievement system will be added. When a Bleach: Brave Souls (© Tite Kubo/Shueisha, TV TOKYO, dentsu, Pierrot) release date is announced for Switch, we will post about it. Until then, you can try Bleach: Brave Souls (© Tite Kubo/Shueisha, TV TOKYO, dentsu, Pierrot) on iOS, Android, PC, and PS4. -Mikhail Madnani
Select New Releases
Cupid Parasite: Sweet and Spicy Darling ($49.99)
It’s fan disk time for Cupid Parasite, and this has all of the things you would expect from such a thing. Some after-story stuff, some alternate route stuff, and so on. The gimmick here is that your choices are either sweet or spicy, and how well you balance them will determine which ending you arrive at. If you loved Cupid Parasite and want a little more, here you go. If you’re new to the whole thing, absolutely do not start here.
Construction Simulator 4 ($34.99)
Well, it’s another Construction Simulator. You probably know what this is all about and if it’s your kind of thing. You also might know that if you opt to play this on Switch you’re going to have to deal with a clumsy interface and relatively small text in handheld mode. But this time you’re in Canada, eh? Not anywhere specific, mind you. It’s just a location vaguely inspired by Canada. Give’r.
Terror Mansion ($13.99)
It’s another first-person horror game! You’re trying to escape a spooky mansion. This bold and unique premise shall surely yield an all-timer, but as I am a base coward I will never know for sure. You all can feel free to enjoy it, however.
Sales
(North American eShop, US Prices)
A short list of new sales to consider today, with great titles like Sumire and No Man’s Sky to consider. Not so much in the outbox, but you might want to pick up Blossom Tales II, Missile Dancer, or Raging Blasters depending on your tastes. I imagine we’re going to be seeing some big deals as we head into June and the whole Not-E3 season, so these days where you can get away with your wallet intact aren’t so bad now and then.

That’s all for today, friends. I again apologize for how short this one is today. It’s really rare for a game to grab me so thoroughly that I neglect everything else until I finish it. But sometimes it’s nice to have something like that, as it reminds me why I’m still doing all of this after a couple of decades. Anyway, we’ll be back tomorrow with at least one review, some new releases, more sales, and perhaps some news. I hope you all have a terrific Tuesday, and as always, thanks for reading!
