Minecraft is Now Available On The Switch

May 11, 2017 by Jordan Coetsee

Garou: Mark of the Wolves also makes an appearance on the e-Shop.

Since launch, I’m sure loads of fans have been waiting to finally get Minecraft on the Switch, but now the wait is over, Microsoft’s Minecraft is now available on Nintendo’s e-Shop. Priced at $30, the Switch version of Minecraft features local and online multiplayer support as well as rad Mario-inspired skins.

The Switch edition of Minecraft will be running at a constant 60fps and will be featuring “Medium sized world”, as well as WiiU transfers, so you can keep digging away at your favourite mine-site.

Also releasing today, is another ACA Neo Geo game, Garou: Mark of the Wolves. The 2D fighting game which originally released in 1999.

Minecraft will be going for $30.00 while Garou: Mark of the Wolves will go for $8.

In other Switch news, players can now add their credit card information to the e-shop making purchases easier.

While online shops from consoles such as The Xbox One or PS4 having the credit card storage capabilities, players of the Switch would have only expected no different with the recently released console. However this was not the case – buyers were frustrated with having to input their details every time they wanted to make a purchase.Luckily today we have information via Nintendoeverything, that the feature has now been added to the e-Shop.

Will you be picking up Minecraft or Garou: Mark of the Wolves? Let us know in the comments.
