Anyone know? I can't find the answer anywhere online. This will determine if I get the PS4 or Switch version.
Concurred - I got it at launch when Amazon had it for something around $25 iirc. Still meaning to go back and finish what I have left one of these days.

So not quite yet for PC, Switch, and Xbox.
So this or Wonder Boy: Dragon's Trap? They look so similar to me...

Honestly they are somewhat similar but both worth checking out. Dragon's Trap is a straight up port of a Master System game, so you see a little more of the quirks and mechanics that come with old school game design, but overall I found it a little more enjoyable/focused than Monster Boy. If anything it really made me appreciate just how forward thinking a lot of the game design decisions of a 30 year old game were because of how much of it was carried over into Monster Boy. Monster Boy is a modern pseudo sequel/spiritual successor to Dragon's Trap, and I think you will fully appreciate a lot of the little touches and cool call backs if you play Dragon's Trap first.
They're very different games. Dragon's Trap is a completely faithful remake of the Master System game, to the point that you can switch graphics on the fly like in the Halo 1/2 Anniversary.
Monster Boy is a Metroidvania with platforming and puzzles. It's one of the best games of 2018.

Game looks fantastic on pro, can't imagine it looking bad at all on switch either.Anyone know? I can't find the answer anywhere online. This will determine if I get the PS4 or Switch version.
