The classic action-RPG Hydlide, originally released for the MSX system in 1984, will be making its way to the Nintendo Switch! Scheduled for release on September 5th in Japan via D4 Enterprise’s EGGCONSOLE series, Hydlide fans can look forward to experiencing the game in a new light.

What makes this version special? It comes with an English how-to-play section and menu options to aid new players. This port will be true to its 1985 origins, promising a nostalgic trip through the vast overworld filled with challenging enemies and exciting quests for young knight Jim on his mission to restore peace in Fairyland.


Are you a Hydlide Fan? What makes the game stand out?

Does anyone want to play the original Hydlide? It aged horribly.
