This new release will be available exclusively as a digital download via the Nintendo Switch eShop, priced at $9.99.
SF3RA thrusts players into an intergalactic adventure, combining fast-paced action with exploration and resource management.
The narrative centers on SFERA, a covert association of assassins disguised as a robot union.
Players take on the role of an elite assassin contracted to eliminate rogue robots within the A7FA-3T planetary system.
Throughout the game, users will traverse diverse environments, from alien worlds to high-security space bases, uncovering secret rooms and unraveling hidden challenges along the way.
Gameplay in SF3RA is characterized by its blend of retro-inspired 2D pixel platforming and dynamic 3D sequences.
Players are accompanied by a drone assistant, which can be strategically upgraded to help combat increasingly formidable enemies.
By destroying adversaries, collecting valuable items, and investing in new weaponry, players will grow in strength and resilience as they progress through the game's expansive levels.
Notably, SF3RA features interplanetary travel aboard a customizable spaceship.
As they transition between planets, players must navigate through hostile space, smashing asteroids and gathering rare elements critical to their mission.
Each of the game’s five distinct areas includes hidden rooms and culminates in challenging boss battles, ensuring compelling gameplay and replay value.
In an official statement, Ratalaika Games highlighted the title’s vibrant pixel graphics, parallax-scrolling backgrounds, and original music soundtrack, all designed to create a memorable and visually striking experience for players.
