Ever since its debut, Orbitals has been on our radar. The co-op adventure inspired by early ’90s anime has been getting nothing but love from Nintendo, and thanks to June’s Direct we now have a release date for what’s shaping up to be a must-play exclusive. 

 

 

Dual protagonists Maki and Omura will set out together into the far reaches of space in order to save their home. Players will be able to enjoy this one either in splitscreen together in the same room, or play across systems locally and online with GameShare support.

When he isn’t writing for Nintendo Wire, Ricky’s anticipating the next Kirby, Fire Emblem, or if the stars ever align, Mother 3 to be released. Till then he’ll have the warm comfort of Super Smash Bros. to keep him going.
