Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for February 5th, 2021. As usual for a Friday, we’ve got a whole bunch of new releases to check out. They’re… they’re not the greatest games today, friends. But we’ve got summaries of all of them anyway. Things are rounded out with the lists of the newest sales along with the outgoing ones. Not much news to cover, but SNK has announced that the NEOGEO Pocket Color game SNK vs. Capcom will be coming to Switch on February 17th, so that’s something. Let’s get into what we’ve got!
New Releases
How to Take Off Your Mask Remastered ($14.99)

This otome visual novel comes from the prolific developer Roseverte and publisher Ratalaika Games. It’s short, it’s cute, and its ending leaves a lot of questions dangling for later games. A girl named Lilia is living her normal routine life, working in a bakery and hanging out with her childhood friend Ronan. One day she wakes up and finds herself in the form of a catgirl. She rushes out of her house only to run right into the city guard… Ronan" Who is Lilia really" Who is Ronan" Can they find their true selves and love along the way" A neat concept but ultimately I’m hard-pressed to recommend it for the price it’s going for. It’s just too thin. Glittering Sword ($4.99)

You know, it’s never very encouraging when an eShop description starts with a mildly philosophical war...
