Nintendo’s Golden Sun RPGs are coming to Switch Online
Golden Sun and its sequel were first released for Game Boy Advance
Nintendo and Camelot’s classic RPG series, Golden Sun, is coming to the Switch Online service this month.
The Game Boy Advance games Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age will be added on January 16 for users with a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership.
Golden Sun and its sequel were released in 2001 and 2002 to broad critical acclaim. A third game, Dark Dawn, was released for Nintendo DS in 2010.
“This is your chance to visit (and revisit!) the magic and mystery of these classic RPG adventures,” Nintendo said.
“From the humble village of Vale to the mystical peaks of Mt. Aleph, the Golden Sun game sets magic-wielding young heroes Isaac, Garet, Ivan and Mia on a quest to prevent the ancient power of Alchemy from being unleashed on their home world of Weyard.
“Their adventure takes them through towns, caverns and dungeons as they face wily enemies, confounding puzzles and epic challenges that push their magical abilities (Psynergy) to their absolute limits.
“Along the way, they get help from mysterious creatures known as the Djinn, who aid the heroes in harnessing their Psynergy to unlock potent spells and unstoppable attacks.”
