Bulb Boy will be heading to Switch this month
A new game has been discovered on the Switch eShop. It seems Bulbware’s Bulb Boy, a horror puzzle adventure, will launch on Switch months ahead of the other platforms.
French website JeGeekJePlay has reported it to launch on June 20 for a price of €7.99 / £7.19 according to a photo of the eShop itself. Furthermore, Nintendo Life has published that it will release this summer in all regions, so we suppose that previous date applies to North America as well.
Here’s the official Switch trailer, so you can see for yourselves how the game looks.
And here’s an overview from the eShop:
Multi-award winning 2D horror puzzle adventure about a boy with a glowing heat.
