Nirvana, a retro racer and visual novel hybrid inspired by classic arcade games and 80s sci-fi and anime, is coming to Nintendo Switch on May 6th, 2022. It’s a cleaner T-rated version of Nirvana: Pilot Yume, intended for “players who love the retro vibes and deep stories rather than explicit content.” Developed by Dev9k and published by RedDeer.Games, you can check out the latest trailer above and more info below via the official press release.

80s SCI-FI NOSTALGIA

Nirvana is filled with a retro sci-fi anime vibe - neon lights, beautiful women, and ultra-fast spaceships. It’s also an ode to classic racing games from the DOS era combined with an engaging visual novel!

In addition to racing on 10 retro-themed, low poly tracks there are many decisions to make in the game, with 5 different story endings!

What I find interesting is that the original game is $4.99 (USD) while the less-explicit title is slated to be $2.00 more (or $6.99) upon release.
