Oddworld
More Oddworld fans will be able to play Oddworld: Soulstorm with the game heading its way out to the Switch
It may have taken a bit, but Oddworld: Soulstorm is now officially on its way to the Nintendo Switch. It has been a long time coming and now Oddworld Inhabitants has it to a place where they are ready to let the news fly. The only drawback is that there is no word on when Oddworld: Soulstorm will be hitting the system, so you will have to wait just a bit longer. It is still great news given that it hit the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S well before it hit the PC and the team is not going to let any gamers down. Unless you are on mobile only, as I do not think they will have the power to run the game in the least bit.
Those looking to pre-order this version of Oddworld: Soulstorm can do so as of now, as well as getting the Limited and Collector's editions of the game if you so choose to. They both come with all of the bells and whistles that one has come to expect for them all and with the nice little card to add Oddworld: Soulstorm to the library. This will also have all of the upgrades and enhancements that the Switch will be able to run, but do not expect it to be anywhere on par with the console's bigger brothers before you try to take it on the move with you. It is still the Switch and not known to get those high-end PC visuals out there still.
Oddworld: Soulstorm — Switch Announcement
Oddworld: Soulstorm, the award-winning sequel to the best-selling Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty, is an explosive action-adventure epic platformer. Optimized for Nintendo Switch to take advantage of the platform’s unique features, this version features the same amazing Soulstorm gameplay currently found on the other platforms (PlayStation, Xbox, Steam, and Epic Games Store), with a delightful Switch flavor!
In Soulstorm, you must help Abe on his hero’s journey to free more than 1,000 Mudokons from the oppressive chains that enslave them. Confronting an uncertain future and a forgotten past, use your instincts and skills to allude detection, survive insurmountable odds, and maybe provide a spark that sets a revolution ablaze.
Armed with an array of tactics, from stealth to going full-on ballistic by utilizing scavenged trash to craft powerful and incendiary weapons, decide how best to bring the fight to your oppressors and save all the Mudokons.
In-game decisions and the number of lives saved in each level will impact the game’s outcome. With four unique endings, the choices you make will impact the game’s powerful conclusion, potentially unlocking the final two fiery chapters.
