Over the weekend, GalaxyTrail posted an image on Facebook hinting at a release of Freedom Planet on Switch. Some took that as confirmation that the game would be heading to Nintendo’s console at some point, but we’re not quite there… yet.
GalaxyTrail has now clarified that the image was a way of showing that the studio is aware of the huge amount of interest in Freedom Planet on Switch. The team is “currently exploring all of our options to offer you the game and the sequel on the Switch” – so there’s nothing official, yet.
Here’s the full statement:
Masters of Anima is coming to Switch, Passtech Games has announced. The game follows Otto, who takes on the forces of evil, in strategic / action-packed battles where you can summon and control large armies of up to 100 Guardians.
Masters of Anima launches on Switch this spring. View a new gameplay trailer below.
