Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Physical Switch Edition Delayed to May 2024

Fans of the highly anticipated RPG Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes for the Nintendo Switch will have to wait a little longer to get their hands on a physical copy of the game. In an official update from 505 Games, it was announced that the physical release of the game has been delayed in the “Americas & EMEA” regions. The new date for the physical release is now set for May 21, 2024.

To ensure that backers can still start their adventure on time, all affected backers will receive a digital copy of the game on release day. This move is aimed at minimizing any inconvenience caused by the delay in the physical release. 505 Games expressed their regret over the delay in a statement to the Eiyuden Chronicle community, assuring fans that they will still be able to embark on their adventure as planned.

In addition to the digital copies for backers, sites online will also be selling the Japanese physical Switch release of the game, which includes multi-language support. This provides an alternative option for fans who prefer a physical copy of the game.

For those eager to learn more about Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, Nintendo Life has provided an in-depth hands-on preview of the game.

Overall, while the delay in the physical release may be disappointing for some fans, the availability of digital copies and alternative options for obtaining the game should help alleviate any concerns.
