Today at the Genesis 7 tournament, an announcement was made about the Switch version of Rivals of Aether, namely that it will be launching on Switch this summer.

Choose a Rival to bring into the battlefield and manipulate the powers of the classical elements and animal movement. Praised for its competitive gameplay and intensive training tools, Rivals of Aether is the perfect entry to the Platform Fighter genre.
