August’s NES games for Switch Online confirmed
Kung-Fu Heroes and Vice: Project Doom joining the service
Nintendo has announced two new NES games coming to Nintendo Switch Online later this month.
Kung-Fu Heroes and Vice: Project Doom will be available for subscribers to play from Wednesday August 21.
You can see the games in action in the trailer above, while further details about each title can be found at the bottom of this article.
Nintendo Switch Online launched in September 2018 and is required to play most Switch games online (Fortnite is a notable exclusion).
Members can also access a growing library of classic NES games, back up save data online, and receive special offers including free access to Tetris 99.
In the UK and Japan, Nintendo recently launched a ‘Game Trials’ programme for Switch Online members, offering time-limited access to games including Captain Toad and Mario Tennis Aces.
Over 10 million Nintendo account holders have signed up to Nintendo Switch Online, according to the platform holder, which is considering extending the service’s games library beyond the currently offered NES titles to other legacy platforms.
Kung-Fu Heroes
Monsters have taken Princess Min-Min and the 10 treasures of the land, and the people have fallen into sorrow. Only Kung-Fu Masters Jacky and Lee can save the princess and retrieve the treasures! Their journey will take them to eight different castles filled with hosts of traps and obstacles. Use punches and the Miracle Kick to defeat the enemies. You will need quick wits and lightning reflexes to make it to the last castle!
Vice: Project Doom
There exists a group of undercover detectives who dare stand up to the evil in the world… They are known as Vice. Officer Quinn Hart, a member of Vice, is on the case and after the truth. High-speed car chases, action-packed battles employing three types of weapons and a mode with three 3D rail-shooting stages all bring this cyberpunk world to life.
