I Am Setsuna confirmed for launch on Switch in America and Europe

Square Enix has confirmed that I Am Setsuna will be available ‘worldwide’ for launch on the Nintendo Switch.

While the game will enjoy a physical release in Japan, we’ll only get the game digitally on the eShop in the west. This also confirms that the eShop will be available day one for the Switch as well, if there was any doubt.

We’ll find out if we’re getting the game day one here in Australia, but thanks to the console being region free – it’s not that much of a problem anymore.
