I’m currently on holiday in the USA, and Walmart has Battle Chasers: Nightwar for Switch on sale for $24.89USD, which Amazon.com has duly pricematched. Currently out of stock, but still able to be ordered from Amazon, for delivery when it comes back in stock. Works out to be ~$39.91AUD delivered to Melbourne (only a few more dollars than I paid for pickup at Walmart, after taxes: ~$35.66AUD).

EB Games pre-order is $59.95AUD:

It’s also $56.49 delivered from Mighty Ape through Amazon.com.au, which you might be able to combine with something else to get $20 off for new users (eg FIFA 18):

Pretty decent score of 79 on Metacritic for the Switch version:

Note: From what I gather, the Switch version does suffer from some performance issues / longer loading times, but that appears to be limited to the overworld (game is smooth in combat apparently).

Battle Chasers: Nightwar is an RPG inspired by the console genre-greats, featuring deep dungeon diving, turn-based combat presented in classic JRPG format, and a rich story driven by exploration of the world.
* Traditional turn-based combat with a unique overcharge mana system and incredible Battle Bursts.
* Explore an overworld peppered with hidden dungeons, rare bosses and randomly appearing friends and foes.
* Action oriented, randomly-generated dungeons loaded with traps, puzzles and secrets. Use each hero's unique dungeon skills to survive
* Build your adventuring party by choosing three of six available heroes from the famed Battle Chasers comic series, each with unique abilities, perks, items and dungeon skills
* Dive into the deep crafting system, using the unique ingredient-overloading system to create epic items!
* The best-selling comic book Battle Chasers was first released in the late 90s and quickly generated a passionate cult following.

I grabbed this to tide me over until Octopath Traveller is released (and on sale for a reasonable price!).

  Is it a diablo type game? Action rpg? How come some screenshots look like a regular platformer?

  Man, this is so tempting. I just ordered Hyrule warriors and Detroit become Human for a total of $50 off on Amazon AU because the code didn't work so they gave me a separate $30 code and then The $20 code started working so $50 off! Don't know what to do now. Backlog is mental.

  Being region free means physical copies work anywhere and everywhere around the world right? No caveats?

    caprimulgus on 27/05/2018 - 03:26

    Yeah, the game will work anywhere! :)

    Only things to note are that: 1) any DLC must be purchased in the same region, 2) I believe gold points can only be claimed by an account for that region (not sure about that one).

  Already bought the PS4 version a long time ago. Great RPG and turn-based game. I really like it.
