The latest Nintendo Indie World Showcase revealed some exciting new IPs and a couple of unexpected sequels. The presentation, which ran on April 14, 2021, gave Switch and indie fans plenty to look forward to this year and in 2022. Here are some of the highlights from the latest broadcast.

Typically, Nintendo's Indie World Showcases focus on lesser-known studios and titles while bookending the presentation with bigger reveals. The last Indie World Showcase revealed that Among Us was coming to the Nintendo Switch later that day, and while nothing in this latest presentation caused quite that big of a stir, there were plenty of great (and great-looking) games included.

There was a little something for everyone in Nintendo's latest showcase, from skateboarding games like OlliOlliWorld to buzzed-about Steam titles like The Longing. There were even a few surprise announcements for sequels and remakes, like The House of the Dead: Remake, that are bringing back '80s and '90s titles to the Switch. While a lot of the games look great, here are some of the biggest highlights.

Nintendo Indie World Showcase - Aztech Forgotten Gods

Aztech Forgotten Gods

Aztech Forgotten Gods looks like God of War combined with an '80s tech aesthetic and Aztec lore. As Achtli, a warrior with a robotic arm, players will come face-to-face with gigantic gods and battle them. It's an interesting take on puzzle platformers, and the game is to release on Nintendo Switch this Fall.

Nintendo Indie World Showcase - Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals

Oxenfree 2 Nintendo Indie Showcase

Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals is the unexpected (but well-welcomed) sequel to cult hit Oxenfree. Set five years after the events of the original game, Oxenfree 2 combines old and new elements from its predecessor to give players an experience they likely won't forget. With some nice Stranger Things vibes, fans of the Netflix hit show may want to check out Oxenfree 2 as well.

Nintendo Indie World Showcase - GetsuFumaDen: Undying Moon

GetsuFumaDen Undying Moon Boss Battle

Another unexpected sequel that was announced during the Indie World event is GetsuFumaDen: Undying Moon. It's been over thirty years since the original GetsuFumaDen, and Konami's involvement is almost as surprising. This, combined with recent Silent Hill rumors, might mean a comeback for the studio behind popular franchises like Metal Gear Solid and Castlevania.

In GetsuFumaDen: Undying Moon, players are a hero tasked with fighting a number of large bosses with a wide range of weapons. Combining roguelite elements with hack-and-slash gameplay, fans of indie hit Hades and Konami's own Castlevania series may want to check out the game when it releases on Nintendo Switch in 2022.

Nintendo Indie World Showcase - TMNT: Shredder's Revenge

GetsuFumaDen isn't the only title from a bygone era of gaming to make an appearance at the latest Indie World Showcase. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge is getting a Switch port this year. The 16-bit beat 'em up is getting an HD remaster, and TMNT fans should be delighted to see this classic appear on a more modern console.

Nintendo Indie World Showcase: Cris Tales

Cris Tales

Cris Tales is a stylistic RPG with branching stories and a time-bending narrative. As an awakened Time Mage named Crisbell, players will embark on a journey through a fantasy world with a potentially cataclysmic future. The Switch is already a powerhouse for RPGs, and Cris Tales looks like a nice new addition to the genre library.

Nintendo Indie World Showcase - Skul: The Hero Slayer

Skul the Hero Slayer Chimera

Skul: The Hero Slayer released on PC earlier this year, and the 2D rougelite is now headed to Switch this summer. With an alluring art style, fast combat, and intimidating bosses, Skul: The Hero Slayer should appeal to fans of Hollow Knight who are still waiting for Silksong to release.

Indie World Showcases always have fascinating titles to reveal, and this latest presentation was no different. These highlights from the broadcast offer plenty of options for fans of indie games and the Nintendo Switch to try out.
