If you were waiting for the right time to fill your RPG backlog on Nintendo Switchit has arrived. The European eShop has just launched a new round of massive discounts, driven by the “Find and play” campaign and several publisher operations in parallel.
Between cult JRPGs, licensed action-RPGs and demanding roguelites, the discounts are hitting hard, sometimes for less than €10. Enough to transform a few euros into dozens of hours of play, provided you target the good offers before they expire.
Which Nintendo Switch RPGs are taking advantage of the “Find and Play” wave?
First essential of this selection, Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom – The Prince’s Edition drops to €9.59 instead of €59.99 until April 20, according to Nintendo-Town. For less than €10, you get the complete game with its additional content, praised with a rating of 9.1/10 and renowned for its animated universe and its generous lifespan. In the same spirit, Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin drops to €14.79 instead of €39.99 (-63%) until April 16, perfect if you like turn-based and classic JRPG monster collecting.
The “Find and play” campaign, running from April 2 to 12 according to Switch-Actu, also highlights WitchSpring Rdisplayed at €23.99 instead of €39.99. This narrative RPG makes you manage the daily life of a witch between training, crafting and dialogues, ideal for fans of meticulous progression. On the action-RPG side, Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy costs €34.99 instead of €59.99 on Switch 2, a good entry point if you had rejected this open world juggernaut by its launch price.
Which RPGs to choose on the eShop according to your budget?
La Crème du Gaming points out that Nintendo rarely lets prices fall below $1.99 (around €1.90), which sets the floor around €1.99 on the eShop. Black Future ’88 reaches this threshold: €1.99 instead of €19.99 (-90%) until April 12. This ultra-nervous 2D roguelite stacks fast runs, loot and persistent progression, perfect for short sessions between two big JRPGs.
Another nugget, Slay the Spire drops to €6.24 instead of €24.99 (-75%). This roguelike deckbuilder has become a reference thanks to its dozens of hours of theorycrafting and card synergies. The exact period depends on the operation in progress, so you have to check the end date directly on the eShop sheet, but it is one of the best content/price ratios of this wave.
Concretely, with a budget of around ten euros, you can already associate Black Future ’88 to another little RPG on sale. Around €20, add Slay the Spire or aim Monster Hunter Stories 2 becomes very tempting. And if you go up to €35-40, the combo Ni no Kuni II plus a headline like Hogwarts Legacy Or WitchSpring R will keep you busy all spring.
