Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team is Coming to Switch

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX is a remake of Chunsoft’s 2006 dungeon-crawler roguelike, and it’s coming to the Nintendo Switch in March.

Part of the popular Pokémon spin-off series, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team were released back in 2006 for the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS respectively.
