How regional eShop pricing works for The Answer is 42
Nintendo prices The Answer is 42 independently in each of the 48 countries we track, using local currencies. Because exchange rates and regional purchasing power differ, the same digital game can cost very different amounts depending on where you buy it. To redeem the cheapest price, you typically need an eShop gift card for that region; we link to a country-specific buying guide whenever you click any row in the price table above. We also compare the current Steam price for this game so you can see whether the PC version on Steam is cheaper than any eShop region right now.
All prices on this page are converted from the original local currency to your selected display currency using daily exchange rates. The regular price (struck through) shows the country's standard eShop price; the highlighted sale price is what Nintendo is charging today. Discount badges in green mark deals of 50% or more. HowLongToBeat data shows The Answer is 42 takes about 2 hours to finish the main story, which we use to estimate cost-per-hour value.
