Get ready for XTREME fun with the return of this action-sports-RPG classic!

We are XTREMELY XCITED to announce that Xtreme Sports — the genre-busting action-sports-RPG designed by Shantae series director Matt Bozon — is now available in the Nintendo Switch eShop! Priced at $9.99 and rated E by the ESRB, the Switch version is a pixel-perfect adaptation of the original Game Boy Color release, now with added features such as an art gallery, save states, and several display options. A totally sweet launch trailer can be seen here!
First released in the year 2000, Xtreme Sports lets you take control of energetic Guppi or her radical boyfriend Fin as they travel to Xtreme Island in an attempt to become the new Xtreme Sports Champion. There are obstacles to avoid, power-ups to utilize, and unique controls to master as they compete in five awesome, adrenaline-pumping events:

•Skateboarding – Race through courses while performing grinds, grabs, spins, and kickflips, then hit the halfpipe for even more chances to earn points!
•Street Luge – A vertically scrolling obstacle course! Build up speed, launch off ramps, avoid hazards, and watch out for sharp turns!
•Surfing – Ride a massive wave, collect stars, and launch from the crest while performing tricks and dodging enemies!
•In-line Skating – A side-scrolling contest against time! Grind rails, jump over or duck under obstacles, and find the best route in each course!
•Skyboarding – Leap from a plane, then collect arrows to perform sick tricks as you plummet through the clouds!

When you aren’t earning medals and challenging opponents like the mischievous Bonehead Gang, you’ll get to explore the tropical island for secret paths and hidden challenges in this one-of-a-kind mix of sports, action, adventure, and role-playing.

In addition to the Switch eShop release, Xtreme Sports has also been offered as a physical Switch edition from Limited Run Games, as well as a reproduction cartridge playable on Game Boy Color hardware, both of which should be arriving in players’ hands in the months ahead.
