You may have noticed, but, I don’t have a review ready just yet for Norn9 Last Era. I want to take my time playing this one, so I’ll get around to finishing the game eventually. However, the awesome folks at Aksys Games did send me the Norn9 Limited Edition and I was able to do a live unboxing over on my Twitch channel.
In case you missed it, you can still check out the VOD on my Twitch channel or you you can watch this edited version over on my YouTube channel!
Norn9: Last Era, the highly anticipated fan disk follow up to Norn9: Var Commons, is available now for the first time in the west on Nintendo Switch™. Each first run copy of the game includes an exclusive set of twelve full-color character cards, and North American customers who order from the Aksys Online Store can also receive a 1.25″ metal pin of the Norn9 insignia, while supplies last.
