In recent weeks, North American video game publisher Nippon Ichi Software America have announced two new titles they plan to publish to western markets in 2020 – Prinny 1-2: Exploded and Reloaded (Nintendo Switch) and Void Terrarium (PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch). The former is a collection of their two challenge-packed platformer games formerly released on the PlayStation Portable and the latter is a completely new title from the same creator as the beautiful htoL#NiQ: The Firefly Diary.
In Australia and New Zealand, it has recently been confirmed that Bandai Namco Entertainment will serve as regional distributor for both games. With few exceptions, BNE have published a majority of NISA’s games in the region, but always nice to receive clarification of them doing so into this new decade.
For more information about each of the two games, keep reading on.
