Canvas City Announced for Nintendo Switch: Disc 2 Games Debuts Stylish Turn-Based Tactics RPG with Black Salt Games Support

Disc 2 Games, an up-and-coming indie developer, has officially announced its inaugural title, Canvas City, exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.

Canvas City distinguishes itself in the tactical RPG landscape by fusing turn-based strategy with a vibrant, movement-focused combat system.

This unique blend sees players leading a crew of skaters and street artists as they rise up against a formidable regime in a creatively suppressed metropolis.

Canvas City’s announcement is noteworthy not only for its inventive gameplay take, but also because Disc 2 Games is collaborating with Black Salt Games, the acclaimed developer behind Dredge.

This partnership marks a significant step for the newcomer studio as it enters the competitive Nintendo Switch eShop lineup. According to the official overview provided by Disc 2 Games, Canvas City invites players into a campaign-driven experience where every battle is a performance.

Players must navigate rails, ramps, and vertical terrain to execute skillful tricks and attacks during their turns, gaining Style Points that unlock and power up a range of abilities.

The city itself is alive with rival crews—including corporate-sponsored teams and unpredictable performers—each offering distinct tactics and challenges. The game features 12 recruitable characters, each boasting a unique playstyle, backstory, and suite of skills.

Throughout the campaign, players can unlock and master over 80 abilities, equipping their crew with a dynamic arsenal of buffs, debuffs, mobility skills, and area control powers.

Revisiting previous stages rewards refined strategies and higher rankings, while completing bonus objectives grants rare upgrades and exclusive items.

All crew management and loadout customization take place in the Garage, a central hub where players can delve into each character’s story and plan for upcoming missions. Canvas City will launch as a digital download on the Nintendo Switch eShop, joining a growing list of genre-defining indie titles on Nintendo’s successful hybrid platform.

This debut underscores Disc 2 Games’ commitment to innovation and style-driven gameplay.

As more details and updates emerge, interested fans can follow the official announcement trailer and stay tuned for additional Nintendo Switch coverage.
