Nope. It'll probably come out with the general eshop update later today.
Usually about 3 or 4pm.

Cadence of Hyrule – Crypt of the NecroDancer Featuring the Legend of Zelda |OT| The Hylian Dance
- Thread starter Dancrane212
- Start date
Not yet. I am expecting a 2:00 PM (GMT) release similar to when Slay the Spire released earlier in the week. So for those in other time zones, around 6 hours time (Or up to 8 if 4pm if the correct time.)
Sucks no midnight update, but at least I can buy it while I'm at work and have it be ready when I get home.
just started playing crypt and i suck but by god does it have some good music, so im looking forward to hearing what theyve done to the zelda music.
With permadeath off by default and Fixed Beats mode (i.e. don't need to keep a rhythm), it sounds like it'll be a lot more forgiving if you struggled with Necrodancer's systems.
I don't know but crypt of the necrodancer has about 20 hour playtime
That's pretty lengthy. Figured like 4-6 hours for this type of game
They're both roguelikes, in Crypt of the Necrodancer a single run can take less than 30 minutes if you're good at it, but there are 15 characters in total (11 to unlock) with different gimmicks (4 characters in total with unique story cutscenes and bosses). The whole rhythm aspect also gives the game a fair bit of a learning curve. Since there's only 2 or maybe 3 character characters known to be playable right now in Cadence of Hyrule it's not clear exactly how much content it has in comparison to Crypt of the Necrodancer, but it seems to at least have some options to smooth out the difficulty curve.

it really takes some time before you get the hang of it but trust me when you got the rhythm it's really amazing.
I'm not too polished up on my Zelda knowledge, but I assume that conductor person at the back is going to be the main villain.
Are they a specific LoZ character I don't recognise? The hair and ears look pretty similar to Link's.
Besides the Golden Lute itself, kind of.

I think it is a new villain, but it worth mentioning that the hair and ears look like Vaati:

From the way it's talked about the toggle seems to be an option from the start, but we haven't gotten 100% confirmation that's the case.
I wrote this earlier but in the German e3 trailer it says "Will be avaible during the evening on June 13th". It's 1:10PM now, so it may take between 4:50hrs and 6:50hrs til the game unkocks. I think Cuphead unlocked 8ish.
Yeah I saw that. Thanks for the heads up. I'm still hoping someone messes up and presses the "release now" button early... :P
Devs on twitter say it is digital only and Nintendo is the publisher so if it is not launching with physical then it is hard to see it later.
Also Crypt of the Necrodancer didn't get a physical, so odds here are too low.

There is a precedent of a Nintendo-published indie getting a later physical release with Snipperclips. I wouldn't say it's entirely out of the question.
Cuphead isn't a relevant comparison here, since Nintendo is the publisher of Cadence of Hyrule in the West, while StudioMDHR is the publisher for Cuphead.
IMO, it seems pretty obvious by this point that it will not unlock until it has been demoed at Treehouse Live at E3, which is "indie day" today.
I think Treehouse Live might answer such stuff, later today.
They even specified "in the evening" on French eshop.
I wouldn't expect it before at least 4-5 hours...

Ah, I was looking for something to play and this is actually lower priced than I thought it would be. Definitely gonna pick this up when I get home from work.
Do you mean on the french stream for the E3nintendo direct ?
because i just double checked the e-shop page and there's no mention of its estimate release hour.
Edit : yeah thats what you meant just saw the post about the german direct mentionning it too.
