Back on 1st April 2024, developer Inti Creates revealed a totally real trailer for a retro-inspired 2D action adventure called Divine Dynamo Flamefrit. The trailer turned out to be a cruel April Fools joke (who could have seen that coming?!) but there was enough promise that some couldn't help but wonder if there was a sliver of truth to the jesting.
As it turns out, there was! The developer has today revealed a full trailer for Divine Dynamo Flamefrit, confirming that it's real and it will be coming to Switch this Winter.
Inspired by classic Zelda titles and '90s mech anime, Flamefrit offers a combination of top-down action gameplay and first-person robot combat. You'll be fighting your way through a magical land with swords and spells, teaming up with allies along the way — assuming that attack/roll grunt doesn't become too annoying.
These pixel art Zelda-likes are a dime a dozen on the eShop these days, but we trust Inti Creates to deliver something solid — the mech combat looks like it could help Flamefrit stand apart from the crowd, at least.
