Sucker for Love: First Date, Iron Lung, Spookware, and The Mortuary Assistant coming to Switch

Original (12/12): DreadXP announced today that it will be bringing Sucker for Love: First Date, Iron Lung, Spookware, and The Mortuary Assistant to Switch.

These ports are happening thanks to a newly created development studio. Sucker for Love: First Date, independent developer AkaBaka’s popular Lovecraftian dating sim, will launch for Switch on December 16, 2022 alongside Iron Lung, an atmospheric horror game from developer David Szymanski. The Mortuary Assistant and Spookware will follow in Q1 2023.

Ted Hentskchke, producer and head of DreadXP Productions, said of today’s news: “As DreadXP has grown, one of the top requests that we’ve received from fans is having access to our games on consoles. We searched far and wide for development partners to faithfully port our developers’ titles, and our search for talent led us to the creation of our new porting studio, Port My Game Collective (PMG Collective). We are excited to introduce console gamers to our slate of games for the first time and look forward to our goal of simultaneous multiplatform game launches.”

“As DreadXP enters console game publishing, we’re looking at our existing library of games as well as other cult hits in the horror genre that deserve to be played by as many gamers as possible,” added DeadXP co-producer Abbey Smith. Our highly-rated visual novel dating sim Sucker for Love: First Date is the first of our existing titles to get ported. And in 2023, we’ll launch The Mortuary Assistant and Spookware on Nintendo Switch as well. We also have the honor of publishing David Szymanski’s previously self-published PC game, Iron Lung, on Nintendo Switch next week. This is a new era for DreadXP, and we are so excited to put more spooky games into the hands of horror fans worldwide.”

We have trailers for the upcoming Switch titles below.
