Perhaps the biggest surprise of the recent Direct was Nintendo’s Virtual Boy announcement for the Switch Online service.<\/p>\n

If that wasn’t already enough for one week, the developer behind the indie sensation Antonblast<\/a> has now timed in its own announcement with this news, revealing it will be adding a dedicated ‘VB mode’ in the title’s next major update.<\/p>\n

Here’s the official rundown about this, along with how you’ll be able to activate this mode:<\/p>\n

\n

Summitsphere:<\/strong> “AND, we are very proud to announce that we are adding a VB mode in the next major ANTONBLAST update. You will be able to play the game in this mode by purchasing the Virtual Visor from Brulo’s for a measly 770,000 casino chips. You can then turn it on and off at any time by accessing the “Goodies” menu from your pause screen. …wait, what?”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Stay tuned…<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
