\"West<\/a><\/figure>\n

The upcoming “grim and gritty” twin-stick shooter West of Dead<\/a><\/strong> appears to have locked in a release date for Switch. According to the publisher Raw Fury, it’s arriving<\/a> this August – although Nintendo of America’s YouTube page<\/a> narrows down the eShop release date to 5th August.<\/p>\n

You’ll take control of the dead man William Mason (voiced by Ron Perlman<\/a>) as you descend into Purgatory (one big procedurally generated hunting grounds). The trailer below shows off multiple scenes from this fast-paced cover shooter.<\/p>\n

Here’s some backstory, courtesy of Steam<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

A place of gun smoke and darkness, sin and damnation, wendigos and witches. A shifting, chaotic world that takes its form from the memories, culture or beliefs of the souls who pass through. When a dead man awakens with only the memory of a figure in black, he sets into motion a chain of events that have truly mythic consequences.
