Brotato releasing on Switch next week

The Switch version of Brotato is almost ready to go, and the eShop provides a final release date. Seaven Studio will be publishing it on August 3, 2023.

You may recall that Brotato was announced for Switch during an Indie World Showcase earlier this year. We initially had a general 2023 launch window.

Here’s an overview of the game:

Brotato is a top-down arena shooter roguelite where you play a potato wielding up to 6 weapons at a time to fight off hordes of aliens. Choose from a variety of traits and items to create unique builds and survive until help arrives.

A spaceship from Potato World crashes onto an alien planet. The sole survivor: Brotato, the only potato capable of handling 6 weapons at the same time. Waiting to be rescued by his mates, Brotato must survive in this hostile environment.

• Auto-firing weapons by default with a manual aiming option
Fast runs (under 30 minutes)
• Dozens of characters available to customize your runs (one-handed, crazy, lucky, mage and many more)
• Hundreds of items and weapons to choose from (flamethrowers, SMGs, rocket launchers or sticks and stones)
• Survive waves lasting 20 to 90 seconds each and kill off as many aliens as you can during that time
• Collect materials to gain experience and get items from the shop between waves of enemies
• Accessibility options: tweak the health, damage and speed of enemies so the difficulty is right for you
