<p>Flyhigh Works has confirmed that <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/witch_and_hero">Witch & Hero</a></strong> is making its way to Nintendo Switch later this month, launching on the eShop on 21st March.</p>
<p>In this one, you play as a Hero accompanied by a Witch, seeking revenge and justice over the evil Medusa. Medusa turned the witch into stone, so she is no longer able to move, and it’s up to the Hero to defeat the monsters and collect their blood in order to recover the Witch for a limited period of time. You’ll find plenty of challenging arenas in which you use ‘bump’ combat to take on waves of foes, and you’ll need to partner up with the Witch and her destructive powers to take on these waves as they get stronger.</p>
<p>You may remember that the game launched on 3DS back in 2013; it’s pretty safe to say that we <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/reviews/eshop/witch_and_hero">didn’t exactly enjoy our time</a> with it back then, but this Switch version adds the ability to play with a friend in a co-op mode and has been “enhanced for the Nintendo Switch and HD displays”. Hopefully things will be better this time around.</p>
