Nintendo hosted the Nindies Showcase yesterday, and with it came the announcement of a number of indie games coming to Nintendo Switch. Among these titles was Next Up Hero.
Next Up Hero stuck out as an interesting concept. It's a game where everyone dies. Okay, there's a bit more to it than that. It's an isometric action game where eventually, you will be overcome by enemies. It's okay, it happens to everyone. Your next hero can then take the reigns and revive the previous hero as an AI ally, making you stronger in the process.
The beta is already out on PC, but its reveal at the Nindies Showcase puts it on the Switch as well. The official description reads:
Everyone dies in this community-driven online action game. But once one person dies, an echo is left behind. The next hero can then revive them as an AI companion. Choose from nine heroes and wield various weapons when Next Up Hero launches on Nintendo Switch in early 2018.
As stated before, Next Up Hero is coming to Nintendo Switch, but it's also in beta for PC currently and plans to head to Xbox One as well. It seems well fit for Nintendo Switch for its rogue-like looking elements. It launches on Nintendo Switch in early 2018.
In other Nindie news, they revealed Shovel Knight: King of Cards DLC and Super Meat Boy Forever.
