In an exhilarating twist from Nintendo's latest Indie World Showcase, fans were treated to a delightful surprise: UFO 50, a standout indie gem, is now available on the Switch 2 and ready for action!

Hailed as one of CNET's top games of 2024, UFO 50 made a stunning debut right after the showcase, launching for just $25. This unique title from Mossmouth is not just one game but a collection of 50 retro-style games that harken back to the glory days of the 8-bit era.

UFO 50 invites players into a nostalgic universe filled with a rich variety of genres, including platformers, shooters, and RPGs, all crafted by talented independent developers. Each game may resemble those from the NES era, but they boast a modern twist that makes them feel fresh and exciting.
