Los mejores anuncios del Indie World.

Nintendo has issued one of its Indie World presentations, and although it’s true that it didn’t showcase what we were expecting, there have been some interesting announcements.

Hoy Nintendo ha lanzado una de sus presentaciones Indie World. En estas presentaciones dan espacio a juegos más pequeños e independientes para llegar a una audiencia más amplia. En ese sentido, nunca son presentaciones grandes. Nunca veremos juegos AAA. Como mucho, encontraremos nuestro nuevo juego favorito que no esperábamos.

Ahora bien, es cierto que este Indie World ha sido particularmente relajado. Con muchos anuncios de fechas que ya conocíamos y solo un puñado de títulos nuevos, no ha sido especialmente emocionante. Especialmente porque el juego que todos esperaban ver, Silksong, no hizo acto de presencia. Sin embargo, todavía hay algunos anuncios interesantes que vale la pena revisar.

The first big announcement of the day was Yars Rising. A metroidvania game by WayForward, creators of the Shantae and River City Girls series, and Atari. In the game, we will embody Emi Kimura, a young hacker facing off against a mega corporation named QoTech. How this game connects with Yars Revenge, the 1982 game for Atari 2600, is not clear. Yars Rising will be released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PC, and Atari VCS.

Another big announcement has been Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate. With a graphic style inspired by the current Nickelodeon animated series, the game is a roguelike where we will have to save Splinter after being kidnapped by The Foot Clan. With a cooperative mode for up to four people, it will arrive at some point in July 2024 exclusively for Nintendo Switch. And now available on Apple Arcade subscription.

Entre los juegos más singulares que se han anunciado se encuentra Refind Self: Personality Test Game. Una mezcla de exploración en 2D y elige tu propia aventura, es un juego que analizará nuestras decisiones a lo largo de la aventura para darnos un perfil de nuestra personalidad. Disponible ahora en PC, se lanzará en algún momento del verano de 2024 para Nintendo Switch.

Another game that was already announced, but didn’t have a release date, is Little Kitty, Big City. En este juego, encarnaremos a un pequeño gatito que está perdido y buscando su camino a casa. Teniendo que ayudar a otros animales en pequeñas misiones, el objetivo final es regresar a casa. Little Kitty, Big City será lanzado para Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, y PC el 9 de mayo.

Hablando de gatos y fechas de lanzamiento, también hemos podido averiguar cuándo se lanzará Cat Quest 3. La tercera entrega de este único RPG de acción, con dos entregas muy aclamadas por críticos y público, cuya principal novedad es un estilo gráfico mejorado y un entorno pirata. Algo que incluye intensas batallas en el mar. Cat Quest 3 se lanzará para Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One y PC el 8 de agosto. Con una demo ya disponible.

In the game roundup, we have also seen a couple of games without a release date. Until now. Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, the new game from the creators of Sayonara Wild Heart, will be released on May 16th. And those who have tried it say it’s a strong candidate for GOTY. Additionally, Schim, the game about a frog that can jump between shadows, has announced its release for July 18th.

El último gran anuncio de Indie World ha sido la secuela de SteamWorld Heist. En SteamWorld Heist 2, nos encontramos en una aventura steampunk donde controlamos robots, con escenarios de aventura de desplazamiento lateral y combate por turnos generado de forma procedural. Esta entrega, con temática de piratas, nos promete más armas, más objetos y más robots. Además de un sistema de trabajos y la posibilidad de hacer amigos con PNJ, lo cual no estaba en el título original. SteamWorld Heist II se lanzará el 8 de agosto para Nintendo Switch.

Summary of the Nintendo Indie World: everything that has happened

Today there was a Nintendo Indie World and we tell you everything that happened there in an event without big announcements, but interesting announcements

Nintendo has just held what is likely their last conference of the year. Focusing on indies, their Indie World was a small carousel of interesting, very diverse games—some already known and a good handful yet to be announced. All of them from third-party companies, but no less intriguing for it. So, to ensure you don’t miss a thing, here’s a summary of everything that was presented during this event, highlighting the most interesting aspects.

Even with the year winding down, Nintendo isn’t calling it quits just yet. With the pending release of the Super Mario RPG Remake, they still have room for a few games in December, as they’ve proven in this Indie World showcase.

For this year’s end, they’ve unveiled two games. Firstly, “A Highland Song,” a game developed by Inkle that previously had no set release date. It invites players to step into the shoes of Moira McKinnon, a girl fleeing through the Scottish Highlands to the beat of music, with the narrative of her story unfolding based on the elements she discovers along the way. On the other hand, “Outer Wilds: Archaeologist Edition,” the classic space exploration game by Mobius Digital, is now arriving on the Nintendo Switch to reach a new audience. “A Highland Song” will be released on December 5th, and “Outer Wilds: Archaeologist Edition” will follow on December 7th. Both games are available for pre-order starting now.

Certainly, the bulk of the showcase focused on introducing games slated for 2024. The first arrivals will be “The Star Named EOS,” “Blade Chimera,” and “Moonstone Island.” “The Star Named EOS” is a puzzle game where players reconstruct photos of their deceased mother to manage their emotions. “Blade Chimera” is Lady Bug’s new game, known for metroidvanias, offering an action-platformer with slight puzzle elements. “Moonstone Island” is a farming game with combat reminiscent of “Slay the Spire” and procedurally generated environments. All of these are set to arrive sometime in the spring of 2024.

Moving into the summer of 2024 and beyond, they introduced four more games. One among them is “Core Keeper,” already in early access on PC since March 2022, set to release on Switch in the summer, hinting at its launch date. The other three games are “Shantae Advance,” a new installment in the Shantae franchise planned 20 years ago; “On Your Tail,” an investigative game set in an Italian vacation town with anthropomorphic animals; and “Death Trick: Double Blind,” a detective game set in a circus.

But the most interesting thing, of course, was what was under the seat. In this case, there were two games. On one side, Howl, a game about a strange plague that spreads through sound, where we’ll embody a deaf woman and have to create routes, making sure to dodge our enemies. And on the other hand, Backpack Hero, a peculiar roguelite where our power and abilities are determined by how we organize our backpack.

To wrap it up, they’ve served up a classic mix of games. Announcing the arrival of games like Planet of Lana, Enjoy the Diner, Heavenly Bodies, The Gecko Gods, Passpartout 2: The Lost Artist, Urban Myth Dissolution Center, and Braid: Anniversary Edition.

The result is a decent Indie World, without big announcements, beyond the acclaimed Outer Wilds. But that’s Indie World for you. A conference to give visibility to smaller studios and developments. And in that sense, this Indie World wasn’t a great one, but it was a fruitful one.
