One of the first indie hits on a mobile platform was Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP, an odd little adventure that struck a chord in 2011 when it arrived on iOS. The quaint tale featured a dreamy 16-bit art style and an equally nebulous soundtrack by Jim Guthrie. Now the game is headed to Switch to make the platform's strong catalog of yesteryear indie darlings even more robust. I'll be honest here: Sword & Sworcery EP is not for everyone and its vague story about the nature of dreams and reality might be a bit too obscure. Still, it's nice to see Switch get something so esoteric. You can check out a sample of the game's soundtrack in the video below.
Capy, superbrothers & the maestro Jim Guthrie today announced that acclaimed indie hit Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP will officially be launching for the Nintendo Switch on November 30th, 2018.
Previously available on mobile devices and PC, Sword & Sworcery is an album-meets-adventure chronicling the woeful errand of The Scythian. In Sword & Sworcery, players will wander in the woods, solve strange puzzles & occasionally battle beasties as they seek to re-unite The Trigon Trifecta. The game is set to an award-winning musical backdrop created by celebrated composer and wonderful human, Jim Guthrie.
To accompany the announcement of the launch date for Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP on Nintendo Switch, Capy has also released a strange, gameplay-less video, vieweable at the following YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDwXUEpVB9E
