Details regarding the review embargo for Nintendo’s upcoming action adventure game, Princess Peach: Showtime!, have been revealed.
The review embargo for Princess Peach: Showtime! is expected to be lifted in one week, on Thursday, March 21, 2024, at 12 PM CET. This is a day ahead of the game’s launch on March 22, 2024. Fans can, therefore, look forward to hearing what critics have to say about Peach and Stella’s outing at the Sparkle Theater.
Additionally, the pre-load for Princess Peach: Showtime! is expected to go live on the Nintendo eShop a few days prior to launch. It will come with the latest update pre-installed for those who pre-ordered a digital copy of the game, though a day one update may be rolled out closer to launch on March 22, 2024. Meanwhile, those who purchased a physical copy of the game will need to download the day one update.
Furthermore, the download size of Princess Peach: Showtime! is 4.6 GB, which is relatively modest compared to other titles. That said, those with limited available space on the internal storage are advised to clear up some space in advance. It goes without saying that storage expansion options are available for those who need them.
Princess Peach: Showtime! is scheduled for release on March 22, 2024, exclusively for the Nintendo Switch. It is Princess Peach’s return as the main character, a role she hasn’t held since Super Princess Peach in 2005. Her and a group of Toads are invited to a performance at the Sparkle Theater. However, chaos ensues when Grape and the Sour Bunch attack the venue. To save the day, Peach teams up with Stella, the guardian of the theater. With the assistance of a sentient ribbon named Stella, players can interact with various objects and characters. Additionally, standing on a circular platform grants Peach special abilities tailored to each act’s setting. Peach’s transformations include Swordfighter Peach, Detective Peach, Patissier Peach, Kung Fu Peach, Ninja Peach, Cowgirl Peach, Figure Skater Peach, Dashing Thief Peach, Mermaid Peach, and Mighty Peach. Each transformation offers unique opportunities to tackle challenges.
