Critically acclaimed plaformer Owlboy to release on Nintendo Switch

More indies on Switch!

Last year, an indie game by the name of Owlboy released on PC after nearly a decade in development. Usually, with games that take ages to develop, they don't sit well with fans or critics. It can be because we develop expectations over time that are impossible to meet or they just took so long that the game misses the mark completely.

Luckily, Owlboy was freaking amazing, arguably one of the best games of 2016. The platformer delivers a fantastic story of a boy who has the gift of flight trying to save his village from the evil forces and doom that looms above them. The game features a number of excellent mechanics and is truly a must play game, sadly though the game isn't on any platforms other than PC.

That is until… sometime in the near future! Owlboy will be making its way to the Nintendo Switch in the future. The announcement was made via Nintendo's Japanese YouTube series, The Cat Mario Show.

Owlboy is a perfect fit for Switch and it'll be great to see more players get to experience the story of Owlboy once it releases. There's currently no release date or price for Owlboy on Nintendo Switch.
