If you’re looking for a new game to play on your Nintendo Switch or Switch 2, one of the best console exclusives of the year is on sale for its best price yet. Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, the latest entry in Marvelous’ popular action-RPG-meets-farming-sim series, is up for grabs for $39.88 on Switch and $49.94 on Switch 2. Guardians of Azuma was a Switch 2 launch title, and it’s one of the rare third-party titles with a true physical edition; the full 18GB file is on the Switch 2 game card. Guardians of Azuma’s Earth Dancer Limited Edition for Switch is also on sale at Amazon for $80 (was $100).
The digital edition of Guardians of Azuma goes for $60 on Switch and $70 on Switch 2, so you’re saving $20 by opting for the physical edition. If you pick up the Switch version and want the Switch 2 enhancements down the road, you can buy a $10 upgrade pack from the eShop. The Earth Dancer Limited Edition is only available on Switch, so Switch 2 owners will want to snag the upgrade if they take advantage of Amazon’s deal.
