Castle of Shikigami 2

Red Art Games has announced details on the physical version for the previously announced Castle of Shikigami 2 on Nintendo Switch.

The physical edition of the legendary shoot ’em up game is coming in Standard, Deluxe, and “Dream” editions, all of which are now available for preorder over on the Red Art Games store.


A North American physical edition is planned and will be handled by Video Games Plus, although it’s unfortunately limited to just the standard edition.

Here’s what’s included in the physical edition, plus a teaser trailer:

In addition to the game’s Standard Edition ($39.99/€39.99) which will be available everywhere once it launches, two special editions can also be pre-ordered from Red Art Games’ official online store.
