One the eve of Gamescom 2019 Nintendo revealed a chunky selection of indie games that will be coming to the Nintendo Switch soon. Some of the biggest highlights in Nintendo’s Indie World livestream were Superhot, Hotline Miami, Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition, Risk of Rain 2, and Torchlight 2, among many others. This adds on to the extensive lineup of triple-A releases that Nintendo has scheduled for the Switch in the final quarter of 2019 as well as in early 2020.
Showcasing Microsoft’s commitment to being a cross-platform publisher, the Xbox Game Studios-published Ori and the Blind Forest (Xbox One version review) gets a Definitive Edition on the Nintendo Switch. The critically acclaimed game features hand-painted artwork, meticulously animated character performances and a fully orchestrated score. The Definitive Edition is scheduled to launch on Nintendo Switch on Sept. 27.
Even though rumours of the Switch edition of Superhot (pictured above) were… erm, super hot, the announcement of this stylish time-driven FPS was a welcome one, especially the fact that it is available today.
