Rain World physical

Rain World, which was already available digitally on Switch, is now getting the physical treatment. Limited Run Games will be responsible for it.

Rain World initially came to the eShop way back in 2018 – though at the end of the year. For those curious about it, we have the following description:

You are a slugcat. The world around you is full of danger, and you must face it – alone. Separated from your family in a devastating flood, you will need to find food and shelter between terrifying torrential downpours which threaten to drown all life. Climb through the ruins of an ancient civilization, evade the jaws of vicious predators, and discover new lands teeming with strange creatures and buried mysteries. Find your family before something makes a meal of you!

Inspired by the simplicity and aesthetics of 16-bit classics, this survival platformer requires clever decision-making, both to catch your own prey and to avoid the jaws of hungry predators. Each ravenous foe in your path will be cunning, vicious and always on the hunt – eager to sink their teeth into you, or even each other. As a small, soft slugcat you must rely on stealth and wit rather than force: learn the ecosystem and turn their strengths to your advantage. Maybe then you can survive… Rain World!

Pre-orders for the Rain World Switch physical release should open later in the year. More information will follow later. Additional coverage can be found here.
