Animal Super Squad

Back in 2016, Goat Simulator developer Armin Ibrisagic announced a partnership with Revelmode, a media company formed by popular YouTuber PewDiePie. The initial result of that was Animal Super Squad, which first launched towards the end of last year.

tinyBuild has been giving Switch plenty of support thus far. That could be continuing with another new game, Guts and Glory.

Guts and Glory has been rated for Switch by PEGI. While it’s not an official confirmation, it could be a sign that a release is in the cards soon.
