The Tartarus Key physical

Super Rare Games is producing a physical version of The Tartarus Key for Switch, the company announced today in partnership with Armor Games and Vertical Reach.

4,000 copies will be made in total. Each unit includes the game on a physical cartridge, a full-color manual, an exclusive sticker, and trading cards.

The Tartarus Key release date

The Tartarus Key has received a final release date on Switch. The PS1-style mystery horror game will launch on May 31, 2023, publisher Armor Games Studios and developer Vertical Reach confirmed today.

The Tartarus Key was first announced for Switch in 2021. Vertical Reach ended up needing extra time during development, so rather than launching last year as originally planned, it’ll now be available in a few weeks.

The Tartarus Key

The atmospheric horror adventure game The Tartarus Key is in the works for Switch, publisher Armor Games Studios and developer Vertical Reach confirmed today. It will launch in 2022.

The Tartarus Key, which is inspired by classic thrillers like Alone In The Dark, has players taking on the role of Alex Young, a young woman who awakens to find herself locked inside a sprawling manor, seemingly under constant observation by a network of cameras. Alex later learns that she’s not the only one being held captive. The only guide she’ll have is an unknown voice on the other end of a portable radio. Don’t expect any jump scares, but the game promises that  “there will be plenty to keep players on their toes.”
