Loop Hero ‘The Endless RPG’ is coming to Nintendo Switch
Nintendo host a live Indie World Showcase yesterday, the 11th of August 2021. With a wide variety of notable games, one of the titles to steal the spotlight was Loop Hero. Loop Hero gained its popularity and large fanbase, with over 500,000 copies sold in less than a week after being released. Loop hero has done so well that they could develop a Switch Release for this holiday season.
What Kind Of Game is Loop Hero anyway?
Loop Hero is an ‘Endless RPG’ developed by Four Quarters, where instead of having the freedom to move your character around, you have cards that control them. Think of it as a Yu-Gi-Oh battlefield but with an adventure mode, that’s the best way to describe it. The world has ended, an evil lich has destroyed reality as we know it and every single thing imaginable. However, a Hero awakens in a small camp on a road and starts their journey to rebuild the world from scratch. Along the way, the hero finds other survivors who will either help create a new and better world or those who dwell on their despair and instead, attack the hero to prolong their survival in the bleak environment. As the hero defeats their enemies, they receive landscape cards, which the player can use to create a place terrain features such as forests, mountains, meadows, buildings and other amenities. They will also gain tools or resources that will help increase their health, attack, defence and other small skills for their little hero.
Four Quarters received strong demand for a console version of this game to be released and responded to their fans’ pleas. They finally released a version on Switch and while they have yet to give an official release date, they have mentioned it will be somewhere along the next holiday season. PlayStation and Xbox users can only hope they will get one released on their consoles too, it would be nice to see this come to the PlayStation Now or Xbox Series X/S, perhaps even Xbox Game Pass. With this popular game rising out of the heap of other popular games, we can remain hopeful that another console release will come out later in 2021 or early 2022.
