Press release:
MELBOURNE, VIC – Aug. 11, 2021.
The Australia-based indie games developer Route 59 Games today announced with great joy and thrill that their gorgeous cinematic cel-shaded visual novel “Necrobarista: Final Pour” is now available on the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Eshop.

Dubbed the “Final Pour,” this enhanced version contains a fresh brew of new content that will also be coming soon as a free and flavorful expansion for the PC and Apple Arcade versions of the game.

Return to Melbourne’s favorite supernatural café and share a fresh cup of coffee with the living and dead. Now remastered with overhauled visuals and a cinematic aspect ratio, Necrobarista: Final Pour is overflowing with content, including four hours of never-before-seen gameplay, new modes, more original music, additional environments to explore, and bundled-in DLC.

Delve deeper into the tales of The Terminal’s necromantic new manager Maddy and her ghostly guests. Venture into unfamiliar spaces like the “Sky Station” and “Soul Storage” while enjoying original storylines. The experience also now includes Studio Mode, which caffeine enthusiasts can use to create and edit scenes using the Necrobarista Engine. Meanwhile, Ashling Doodle Mode allows new patrons to be drawn, customized, and inserted into the game.

Necrobarista: Final Pour also includes the “Walking to the Sky” and “Devil’s Den” downloadable content updates previously released via Steam and Apple Arcade. The original soundtrack from composers Kevin Penkin (Florence, Made in Abyss, Tower of God) and Jeremy Lim has also been expanded with new tracks to enhance this colorful anime-inspired narrative adventure.

“When we first envisioned Necrobarista, we never expected it to become a cult hit that would touch and inspire so many people,” said Kevin Chen, lead designer, Route 59 Games.

“We look forward to welcoming even more fans into our community now that the game is out on Nintendo Switch and hope those that have been with us the whole time enjoy the Final Pour.”

Necrobarista is out now on Nintendo eShop for $21.99 / €17.99 / ¥2480 with an additional 15% off as an introductory launch discount. The game is also available as part of the Apple Arcade subscription service and on PC via Steam and GOG.com. The “Final Pour” will be available on PC and Apple Arcade soon. Supported languages include English, French, French (Canadian), Italian, German, Spanish, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Russian, Turkish, Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, and Dutch.
