Dragon Marked for Death for Nintendo Switch headed to retail shelves today

We’ll actually have a review up for this one soon, but figured it was worth sharing the news that Dragon Marked for Death from developer Inti Creates gets a physical, retail release today on the Nintendo Switch. Compiling the two versions that recently released on eShop, this bundle nets all four playable characters along with additional DLC content. I noticed a lot of positive word of mouth surrounding the eShop launch, and I’m looking forward to diving in.

Check out the screenshots below, along with the full press release.
