Developer Mimimi Games and publisher Daedalic Entertainment have unleashed Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun on the Switch 2, with an appropriately sneaky launch trailer to mark its release.
In our recent review, we called Shadow Tactics “a fantastic real-time tactics adventure that wows with top-notch gameplay, fantastic looks, and a set of delectable missions that challenge you to get into your ninja groove and bring the best out of a team of shadowy assassins”.
The release on Switch 2 comes with some of the most compelling mouse controls intrepid reviewer PJ O’Reilly has seen yet, making this a particularly good option for fans of the hybrid console who are into tactics games, shadowy or otherwise. Check out the trailer above for a better look.
