Super Rare Games has announced five physical releases for the Nintendo Switch. Super Rare Games is a publisher and distributor based in London, England, and it has physically released games for the Switch in the past. Now, fans can look forward to five new games coming soon, and Giant Squid’sAbzuhighlights the list.
The digital games revolution has allowed indie-developed titles to find massive success over the past decade-plus, as it is much easier to distribute a game without having to package it, ship it to retailers, and so on and so forth. But many gamers still enjoy the idea of having a physical version of their favorites, especially for collecting purposes. A few years agoSuper Rare Games made a physical version ofSnake Passfor example, and now it is doing the same with five more Nintendo Switch titles.
