DrinkBox surprised us this week by stealthily putting Severed on Switch. Fortunately, the process of porting the game over was very smooth.

DrinkBox co-founder and Severed producer Graham Smith told 4colorrebellion:

“Bringing the game to the Switch was an extremely smooth process, in fact, it was one of the easiest releases we’ve ever done as a studio. The only major difference between the Wii U and Switch versions of Severed is that now you can take it with you on the go!”

DrinkBox isn’t talking about future Switch games at this time. Smith did note though, “I can say that now that our game engine is running on the Switch, it should make it easier for us to bring games to the platform in the future.”

Nintendo posted a video yesterday showing a speedrun of the “Octozeppelin Invasion” level in Splatoon 2’s single-player campaign. The stage was completed in just over a minute using a variety of techniques. It’s pretty impressive, to say the least.

We also may as well mention here that Nintendo has issued a new Splatoon 2 wallpaper on its Japanese website. You can access it here.

Thanks to KobobKC for the tip.
