The “estimated release date” for the Nintendo Switch version of Burnout Paradise Remastered has seemingly leaked, via the Nintendo eShop.
The news has crept across social media [1, 2], showing off-screen pictures of the game on the US Nintendo eShop. This shows the game with the “Estimated Release Date” of June 19th, and the price of $49.99 USD. We have also been able to verify this for ourselves. The game is not currently listed on the UK Nintendo eShop.
Despite this, there has been no official announcement from EA or Nintendo on the game’s release date. Even the official Nintendo website for the game still shows the release data as 2020. We will keep you informed as we learn more.
