Sabotage and Devolver Digital have released the critically-acclaimed ninja adventure The Messenger on Nintendo Switch and PC. Hailed as ‘the best retro tribute since Shovel Knight’ in a flurry of rave reviews, The Messenger arrives as one of the best reviewed Nintendo Switch games of the year.

The Messenger’s launch is heralded by Shinobi No Kikan, a short film that mixes live action, animated sprites, and gameplay into an abridged story of the game’s hero as he sets out on his seemingly impossible quest.
