Off announces Nintendo Switch release date

The Nintendo Switch version of Off is a little bit closer as a release date was announced today. You’ll be able to pick it up on August 15, 2025.

Off, an acclaimed RPG that originally debuted in 2008, was previously confirmed for Nintendo Switch at the very end of 2024. We knew it was planned for this year, but beyond that, no further information was shared until now.

Here’s an overview of the game:

One of the most influential RPGs of the last 20 years is finally coming to Nintendo Switch. Take control of the Batter as he seeks to purify an uncanny and hopeless world haunted by specters, guided by a cryptic, grinning cat called The Judge.

As they move the Batter through increasingly confused zones – a farm that extracts metal from the inside of cattle, an amusement park full of people too frightened to enjoy themselves, a sugar factory with ominous smokestacks – players must reckon with The Batter’s mission themselves.

Key Features

• Uncover the secrets of an uncanny world of commanding a being known as The Batter.
• Crush the specters with the help of an all-new battle system.
• Find a rollercoaster too scary to ride, a library terrorized by a page thief, a mall that you cannot escape.
• The new version of OFF features all-new areas and bosses designed by the game’s creator Mortis Ghost.
• Purify the Queen’s Zones so her citizens can get back to work.
