Mushihimesama Has Been Removed From European Switch eShop Due To PEGI Evaluation Error
Update: We got in touch with the PR company that runs Mushihimesama on Switch, and they told us some good news:
The PEGI rating has been changed from PEGI 3 to PEGI 7, and has been temporarily dropped so that the magazine page can be updated. He plans to return to the EU Nintendo Switch eShop every day now.
Original History [Wed 23rd Jun, 2021 14:30 BST]: Last week, we informed you about it the launch of the acclaimed Cave shooter, Mushihimesama. After an appearance on the Japanese Nintendo Direct, the game was launched by surprise in Switch eShop, ready for retro shooter fans to download and enjoy immediately after the show.
Unfortunately, since that launch, the game has disappeared from the European eShop. His removal came first spotted by fans yesterday, i.e. it was only available in the region for six days before being pulled; the game’s publisher, Live Wire, acknowledged its disappearance, stopping short of providing any explanation.
When we see games mysteriously disappearing from the eShop like this, it’s often just because of a problem in terms of their age rating. If you’re hoping to download the game to give it a try, you might just have to be patient – even if it seems to be available as normal in other regions if you have a North American or Japanese account, for example.
