Ancient’s Gotta Protectors<\/a><\/strong> was one of the last truly essential eShop games for the Nintendo 3DS, and we awarded it a much-deserved 9\/10<\/a> back in 2016.<\/p>\n

Koshiro revealed in 2018<\/a> that the next game in the Mamotte Knight \/ Protect Me Knight<\/strong> series \u2013 entitled Susume!! Mamotte Knight: Hime no Totsugeki Serenade<\/strong> \u2013 is coming to Switch, and the Ancient president has confirmed to us in an exclusive interview<\/a> that the western version will be coming out early next year:<\/p>\n

\n

Now Ancient is developing a sequel to Gotta Protectors for Switch. We are planning to release the JP version by the end of this year and the English version by the next spring.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Koshiro-san also had very positive things to say about the Switch:<\/p>\n

\n

I think that Switch as a gaming platform is very attractive for small game development companies like us. Contrary to the old and unique consoles until 3DS, Switch has a relatively new and common architecture, like a PC. They also offer the development kit at an affordable price. It seems like Nintendo recently gives more importance to Indie games.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ouritsu Anapoko Gakuen<\/strong>, Ancient’s other Switch game, is also expected to launch in Japan this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
