It was announced today that Indivisible will be landing on Switch. Alongside the news, a blog post was published covering the new version and an update for backers.

The Nintendo Switch version of Indivisible will launch simultaneously with the other releases in 2018!
Don’t worry, though – in order to make this happen, Lab Zero received additional funding from 505 Games and hired a programmer to help with the port so it doesn’t take away resources or slow down the rest of development.
