Guacamelee! Super Turbo Champtionship Edition is available now on Nintendo Switch with the sequel coming later this year, according to Drinkbox Studios.
Today’s Switch port of the original 2013 game includes all of the game’s DLC and is priced at $14.99.
As with many 2D side-scrollers, fans have been clamoring for a Switch port of these games. The Nintendo eShop describes the game as “a Metroidvania-style action-platformer set in a magical world inspired by traditional Mexican culture and folklore.” The game also features up to 4-player co-op and players can drop in and out of the game freely.
With the game already released on PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC and Wii U, a Switch port felt like an inevitability. However, Guacamelee! 2, which released Aug. 21 of this year, is more of a surprise. Guacamelee! 2 is currently only available on PS4 and PC, with no word yet on a Xbox One release.
