Nintendo eShop Update: Oxenfree II, The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie

After last week’s flood of higher profile new releases, this week’s eShop update is much quieter — though there are still a few dozen new games arriving on the Switch this week.

The two big highlights: Oxenfree II, the sequel to 2016’s outstanding sci-fi adventure game, and The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie, which is finally arriving in the West 3 years after being released in Japan.

See the full list below, and also check out Nintendo’s updated Game Store list, here.
