Cruis’n Blast Delisted from Nintendo Switch eShop

Cruis'n Blast has been delisted from the Nintendo Switch eShop with no reason given by developer Raw Thrills. Physical copies are still available for now.

Raw Thrills’ arcade racer Cruis’n Blast has been pulled from the Nintendo Switch eShop with no warning and no public explanation from the developer. The game launched on Switch in 2021 and was the first console entry in the Cruis’n series in years. It’s now impossible to buy digitally.

A physical version was released alongside the digital one, so copies are still floating around at retail if you act fast. This is exactly the kind of silent delisting that keeps digital-only libraries feeling fragile. If you want Cruis’n Blast, grab a cartridge while you can. What triggered the removal (licensing, expired agreement, something else) remains unknown for now, and Raw Thrills hasn’t commented.
