Life is Strange Remastered Collection will initially release next month, but Switch owners will unfortunately need to wait a bit longer. Just a few days ago, it was announced that the title for Nintendo’s console won’t be ready to go until later in 2022. We’ll let you know as soon as we have a new Switch release date.
