The number of Sega Genesis games playable on the Switch via the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack grew. Nintendo announced three more games are available in the app. People who subscribe can now also play Alien Soldier, Light Crusader, and Super Fantasy Zone. Notably, both Alien Soldier and Light Crusader are Treasure games.
Alien Soldier is a run-and-gun game that debuted on the Sega Genesis in 1995. After a terrorist group called Scarlet went too far, its former leader Epsilon-Eagle heads off to go through levels and defeat 25 bosses.
Light Crusader is an isometric action-RPG that also appeared on the system in 1995. Players follow Sir David as he searches for people who have disappeared in a dungeon below a town. As he searches, he learns they’ve been stolen as part of a plot to unleash evil.
Super Fantasy Zone is a shoot’em up that initially only appeared on the Sega Genesis in Europe and Japan in 1992. Dark Menon is at it again. It is up to Opa-Opa to defeat all of the monsters invading Fantasy Zone.
