Lumberhill out on Switch this month, new trailer

Last year, the multiplayer party game Lumberhill was announced for Switch. It was originally slated for a 2021 release, but that ultimately didn’t happen.

All In! Games and 2BIGo now have a new, final release date for the title. As was announced today, it’ll be out on April 15, 2022.

Here’s some information about the game:

Sharpen your axe, call up your team, and iron your flannel! You’re going to need your best teamwork skills because nature is united in getting in your way. In this chaotic race against time, you’ll have to chop wood and chase animals back into their pens to fulfill tasks…sounds easy, but it’s not when there are meteors, dinosaurs, and nature itself set on stopping you. To succeed you’ll have to race against the clock, find unorthodox paths through the map, work together as a team, and most importantly—be prepared for anything!

If there’s a tree, there’s work for a lumberjack. Get ready for an incredible ride that will take you to the most unexpected periods and parts of the world and beyond! You’ll get to explore new settings with unique events and mechanics as you progress and meet new animals—big and small, rude and cute that you’ll either want to cuddle or hide in the bushes from. Throughout your journey you’ll also unlock tons of fun, new skins to really make for some crazy screenshots.

Whether you’re on the same sofa or miles apart, you can join axes and get to work: Lumberhill supports both local and online co-op! Feeling mischievous? Switch to PvP and chase your friends across the map (and off it!) as a ram or furious hog to keep them from fulfilling tasks. Want to see what you can accomplish alone? Chill out and enjoy a solitary journey in solo mode.

Put your teamwork skills to the test with up to 3 additional friends in local or online co-op or PvP, or play alone in solo mode
Have your butt kicked by nature
Complete orders in a wide variety of challenging, time-limited levels
Deal with chaotic random events such as wildfires, meteor showers, and pirate attacks
Unlock new exciting worlds and a wide variety of skins as you progress
Find unexpected routes and ways of doing things
Throw pandas around and evade dinosaurs
Probably kick your friends off the map by accident a lot (or on purpose—we don’t judge)
