Happy New Year!

Hey Everyone! I just wanted to give a quick update of what we’ve been up to the last few months.

We’ve released RSR on Nintendo switch! The certification process was intense but everything is ready to go now on the Nintendo e-shop.

We’ve also released a few updates to RSR V1.4. Mostly stability updates but we’ve also added a few new guns. The game is extremely stable now and well balanced.

Besides RSR we’ve been working on new prototype ideas. We’ve got a lot of exciting stuff in the pipeline and will be busy evaluating new ideas. If you’d like to join the discussion head over to our discord channel.

Thanks again for your support and the amazing year we’ve had with RSR. We are looking forward to much more in the year to come :)
