Stray

A Switch version of Stray is in development, Annapurna Interactive and BlueTwelve Studio just revealed. The port launches in Winter 2024.

Stray is an award-winning cat adventure title. Players take the role of a cat who must untangle an ancient mystery to escape a long-forgotten cybercity amidst the detailed neon-lit alleys and the murky environments of its seedy underbelly.

Outer Wilds update 4

The team behind Outer Wilds is still improving the game, and update 4 just went live on Switch.

Many improvements are included here for players on Nintendo’s console. The update includes lots of fixes to visuals across the game, some performance improvements, fixes some community reported bugs, and brings along some features found in patch 15 on other platforms. Worth noting, this is apparently the last major Switch patch panned.

The full overview of today’s update is as follows:

Cocoon physical

It’s been a busy day for Switch physical release news, and you can now add another one to the pile with iam8bit announcing a boxed copy for Cocoon.

The game will be sold as part of a collector’s edition. Each copy includes the title on a cartridge, 3” laser-etched crystal orb light with an activator pedestal, 11”x17” double-sided poster featuring original art, five Orb art cards, and exclusive cover art by Erwin Kho.

Open Roads launch trailer

We’ve got the official launch trailer for Open Roads. The game, a mother-daughter road trip adventure, just released today.

More information about it is included in the following eShop overview:

Outer Wilds physical

A physical release of Outer Wilds was first teased when the game was first launching for Switch digitally at the end of last year, but now we have full details.

iam8bit will be handling the physical version. The Outer Wilds: Archaeologist Edition includes the base game and Echoes of the Eye expansion as well as a foldout planetary chart poster by Mobius Digital concept artist Ian Jacobson. Additionally, available via the iam8bitstore is a collector’s edition containing a canvas traveler’s adventure bag, explorer’s journey + game sleeve, Chert’s bandana, set of seven planetary patches, bonus item from a doomed timeline, and eye of the universe clasp.

Open Roads delayed

Open Roads needs a little more time in the oven and has now been delayed. Annapurna Interactive says it’s now slated for March 28, 2024.

Ultimately this amounts to about a month-long delay. Previously, it was on track for February 22. But Annapurna says the extra time is necessary to “ensure the most polished experience for players.”
