Nintendo Announces Endless Ocean Luminous Details

Nintendo has just unveiled the Japanese website for Endless Ocean Luminous, providing fresh insights into what awaits us in the diving simulation when it arrives on the Switch on May 2nd.

The Japanese website is, surprisingly, in Japanese. However, TokyoGameLife has kindly translated the newly revealed features for us to get a glimpse of what’s in store.

First and foremost, you have the ability to capture selfies with the fish! While it may not be the most significant aspect, it certainly has an impressive appeal. In addition, a plethora of fish and other underwater creatures will make their appearance, with the website unveiling a staggering collection of at least 578 distinct critters for you to explore, capture in photographs, and enjoy swimming alongside.

Players have the freedom to select their aquatic companions, beginning with a modest group and gradually expanding their collection as they climb the ranks of the diving world.

The website also highlights the extensive options for customizing your diver, engaging in online challenges, and sharing codes with friends to allow them to explore the same sections of the ocean alongside you.
