Update: Don’t Starve: Nintendo Switch Edition now has a listing on the North American store as well, unsurprisingly with the same April 12 date. Pricing is set at $19.99.

Original: Klei recently announced Mark of the Ninja Remastered. That’s not the only Switch game the studio has in the works, however.

Over on the European eShop, a listing reveals that Don’t Starve: Nintendo Switch Edition is on the way – and very soon at that. It’s apparently due out on April 12, which is just a week away.

Don’t Starve: Giant Edition is just a couple of weeks away from landing on Wii U. According to a listing on Nintendo’s website, Klei Entertainment is bringing out the game on May 28. It will cost $14.99 at launch.

View a brief overview of Don’t Starve: Giant Edition below.

Don’t Starve: Giant Edition is an uncompromising wilderness survival game full of science and magic.
You play as Wilson, an intrepid Gentleman Scientist who has been trapped by a demon and transported to a mysterious wilderness world. Wilson must learn to exploit his environment and its inhabitants if he ever hopes to escape and find his way back home.
Don’t Starve: Giant Edition combines the content of both the original Don’t Starve game, and the Reign of Giants expansion pack, which adds new characters, seasons, creatures, biomes, and other challenges to Don’t Starve.

Remember: buying Don’t Starve: Giant Edition on Wii U will net you two copies. That means you and a friend could technically split the purchase!
