NIS America to Release Little Town Hero in the West this Spring

Announced at PAX South at the weekend, publisher NIS America have revealed that they will be publishing GAME FREAK’s Little Town Hero onto the Nintendo Switch during Spring 2020.

About the game:
In an isolated village at the edge of the world, a young boy named Axe dreams of seeing the outside world, although everyone is forbidden from venturing beyond the town borders. However, everything changes when a giant monster suddenly attacks the village, and Axe discovers he can fight using the power of a mysterious stone that turns his ideas into attacks. Through his trials of defending the village, he gradually unravels secrets of how the stones and the monsters came to be.

Anyone can become a hero! Dive into the world of the young, budding hero Axe as he rises up to defend his home, gains the support of fellow villagers, and uncovers the truth behind the giant monster attacks. With the unique “Ideas” combat system, you can defend against enemies, plan your attacks, and adapt on the fly without needing to grind! This charming title features game design by GAME FREAK and music composed by Toby Fox (UNDERTALE).

Key Features:

• Izzit? Dazzit! – Use your Ideas to outwit and defend against enemies, then strike back with strong attacks.
• Charming Locals – Befriend the townspeople to gain their support, as well as unlock more Ideas to use in battle.
• There’s No Place Like Home – Enjoy life in this little town with a whimsical soundtrack by Toby Fox (UNDERTALE) and cover art style by GAME FREAK.
