System: Switch
Release date: February 27, 2018
Developer: Overkill Software / Sumo Digital
Publisher: Starbreeze

Payday 2 originally released in 2013 on most major consoles of the time, all except for the Wii U.

Unfortunately, something that should’ve been super sweet ended up just a little too sour.

Moonlighter was announced for Switch last year. We haven’t heard too much about the game in recent months, but it sounds like it isn’t too far off.

Digital Sun Games wrote in a new Kickstarter update this week:

Final debugging of console ports. The game is already playable from beginning to end on Xbox One, PS4 and almost there on Nintendo Switch, but it still needs some more work before starting the certification process. This is the major point pending, it’s a lot of work, but we are very close to finish and things are looking good.

Here’s an overview and trailer for Moonlighter in case you missed our previous coverage:
