The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ was initially planned for Switch’s launch before being delayed to later in the month as a result of unspecified issues. Thankfully, the wait won’t be much longer.

Retailers had already listed The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ for March 17. On Twitter, Nicalis confirms that this is indeed the final date.

Copies of The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ will contain reversible cover art and two exclusive sticker sheets along with a 20-page full-color instruction booklet.

It was assumed that Nicalis was teasing Hydra (or Hydra Castle Labyrinth) for Switch last month after the company tweeted out an image of the game on the system’s home screen. Now that’s been officially confirmed.

Nicalis’ Tyrone Rodriguez showed Hydra running on Switch during a Polygon live stream yesterday. Additionally, the first gameplay of 1001 Spikes and Cave Story debuted as well. Check out the recording below.

The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ was originally on track to be a launch title for Switch. Unfortunately, that’s no longer the case. Nicalis has confirmed that the game has been pushed back slightly “due to issues way beyond our control”. It’s still coming in March – just not March 3.

The new date for The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ may very well be March 17. That’s what Amazon and Best Buy have at the moment.

Nicalis announced an extra bonus for The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ today. Buyers will receive a 20-page full-color instruction booklet with their purchase.

Nicalis technically hasn’t announced Cave Story for Switch, but it’s pretty much safe to say that it’s happening. And judging by a new tweet from the company, a physical version could be on the way.

Nicalis tweeted a few minutes ago:

Nicalis already has two retail releases on the way to Switch in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ and Redout. It’s likely that Cave Story will be joining the lineup.

Nicalis has already announced and hinted at a few games for Switch such as The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+. According to the company’s Tyrone Rodriguez, the team is also preparing “way more” titles for Nintendo’s new system.

Rodriguez told Polygon that Nicalis was able to gain access to Switch “a little bit early” having also received dev kits for the likes of Wii U and 3DS. Development has also been incredibly smooth, and it’s been “light years ahead of what we were doing with Wii U.”

As Rodriguez said:

A short while ago, Nicalis tweeted out a picture (now deleted by the way) suggesting that Cave Story and 1001 Spikes are on the way to Switch. There was one additional game at the very end which was clipped out, so it wasn’t entirely clear what that was. Now gamers have pieced things together, and it seems that Nicalis is also planning Hydra Castle Labyrinth for Switch.

Hydra Castle Labyrinth is a 2D platformer / action-adventure game created for PC. Similar to Castlevania, players explore a big dungeon and gather items along the way to process.
