Update[]: In an excellent update, Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind for the Nintendo Switch is now back on track for a 10th December 2024 release. Yes, after being postponed by an additional week, Digital Eclipse has returned the launch of this version to its original date.
“Great news, Rangers! The Nintendo Switch version of #RitasRewind will be out on Tuesday, December 10 as initially planned — not delayed! We appreciate your patience as we navigate through these unexpected last-minute challenges. We can’t wait for you to enjoy it next week!”
In a reply to a fan on social media, Digital Eclipse has also expressed its aspiration to launch a “physical edition” of Rita’s Rewind next year. However, it is “too soon to say” if the team will truly be able to achieve that. So if you wish to play it this year, you’ll need to opt for a digital copy.
“Our hope and objective is to produce a physical edition next year, but it’s too early to predict if we can make that happen. 2024 will be digital only, but we desire a physical edition more than anyone.”
Original Story: It’s that time of year when we regularly hear about delays, and keeping this in mind, we now have an “important update” to share regarding Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind.
Due to “unexpected” circumstances, the Nintendo Switch release has been “slightly postponed.” Instead of the original December 10 release date alongside the PlayStation, Xbox, and Steam versions, it will now be launched on 19th December 2024 – so you will have to wait an extra week.
Regrettably, because of some “technical difficulties,” online play may not be functioning for at least a “few weeks” on Switch and Xbox platforms. However, two-player online play will be available for PlayStation and Steam at launch. Support for additional players “across all versions” will be available “soon after.” Fortunately, this won’t impact offline multiplayer.
The team at Digital Eclipse also mentions its commitment to continue to “improve and enhance the game after launch to make it what fans and the team “want it to be”:
“We would like to blame Robo Rita for these issues, but we just need a little extra time to deliver on everyone’s expectations.”
