Syberia: The World Before confirmed for Switch

Syberia: The World Before is heading to Switch, it’s been revealed. Director and lead writer Lucas Lagravette actually confirmed the news in a previous issue of MCV/Develop that we’ve been digging through.

The original Syberia trilogy was previously made available on Switch. In fact, a physical bundle of the three games even saw a retail release.

Here’s an overview of the premise for Syberia: The World Before:

Vaghen, 1937: Dana Roze is a 17-year-old girl, who is beginning a brilliant career as a pianist. However, shadows begin to appear over her future as the fascist threat of the Brown Shadow hangs over Europe, at the dawn of the Second World War.

Taiga, 2004: Kate Walker survives as best she can in the salt mine where she has been imprisoned, when a tragic event propels her into a new adventure in search of her identity.

Players will be able to take on the roles of both Kate Walker and Dana Roze while going through different continents and time. They’ll get to the bottom of mysteries, explore the world of Benoît Sokal, take on various puzzles and riddles, be immersed in the story, and listen to the soundtrack from Inon Zur.

We have a trailer for the game below.

Syberia: The World Before will launch for Switch in 2022. It will be sold both physically and digitally, including special editions.
