Fast Fusion is set to launch at an appealing price of $14.99, making it one of the most budget-friendly titles available on the Switch 2 during its initial release phase. Likewise, it has yet to be confirmed for any other platforms, solidifying its status as a console exclusive. The Switch 2 will feature four additional exclusive titles on its launch day, scheduled for June 5.
Developed by the German studio Shin’en Multimedia, Fast Fusion is described as a futuristic arcade racer featuring anti-gravity vehicles that have become a popular sport in its vibrant world. The game will be one of five exclusives available on the Switch 2 when it debuts. Interestingly, just six weeks before its release, Fast Fusion was listed on the eShop for $14.99, which positions it as one of the most affordable titles for the console.
Although the Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour will technically be priced lower at $9.99, it’s primarily an interactive preview rather than a full-fledged game. This pricing decision has raised eyebrows among fans, especially considering Nintendo’s history of offering titles like Wii Sports for free. Fast Fusion was initially announced at a higher price of $19.99 during the April 2 Nintendo Direct.
However, its subsequent listing on the eShop indicates that its price has been reduced, which is an uncommon move for games ahead of release. Currently, Fast Fusion stands as the most economical racing option for the Switch 2. In contrast, Mario Kart World is launching with a steep price tag of $80 in the U.S. and even higher in Europe, where it will retail for approximately €90 or $102.
Despite both being exclusives for the Switch 2, Fast Fusion has a better chance of being released on more platforms due to not being developed or published by Nintendo. The remaining day-one exclusives include titles like Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster, Survival Kids, and the Welcome Tour.
