Home > Flip Wars Gets a Release Date of August 10
Originally published on Nintendo Castle.
Flip Wars, the new Nintendo Switch game originally titled Project Mekuru, will be getting its North American release next month. This new game will pit up to 4 players against each other in order to dominate as much of a board as they can while opponents can ‘flip’ their color. There will also be plenty of power items to help you gain victory, including a speed boost and an item that gives you invincibility. You can fight in different modes including a ‘most panels’ mode and a ‘last-man standing’ mode.
While the game already released in Japan on May 17 and in Europe on July 6, it still has not made its way overseas until next month. While it seems odd to have all the releases spaced out like this, it should be great to finally have available here. For more on Flip Wars, be sure to check out the website here. You can check out the Europe launch trailer below, as well as the San Diego Comic Con press release Nintendo released where they sneakily announced the release date for Flip Wars. Be sure to get the game when it releases on August 10!
Visitors to the ballroom will be able to play upcoming Nintendo Switch games like Splatoon 2 and Pokkén Tournament DX, as well as experience the first hands-on time in North America with Flip Wars (previously known as Project Mekuru), a new multiplayer action game launching exclusively in Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch on Aug. 10*. In the upcoming game, players flip over panels – and opponents – by stomping the ground and using power-ups to outwit the competition. Attendees can also play select Nintendo 3DS games in 2D on the New Nintendo 2DS XL system before it launches in stores later this month. Fans can also participate in competitions sponsored by Nintendo for a chance to win prizes, catch a glimpse of the upcoming Super NES Classic Edition hardware and celebrate the launch of Splatoon 2 with special game-themed activities. And all of the events in the Marriott Marquis & Marina can be enjoyed by anyone in the San Diego area!
