Update: It has been revealed that AVICII Invector will launch on Nintendo Switch on 10th December. We've shared the brand new release date trailer for you above.


Original Article (Tue 15th Oct, 2019 14:15 BST): AVICII Invector, a rhythm game celebrating the life of the late EDM star, will be launching on Nintendo Switch this winter.

The game has been described as "a fast-paced rhythm experience which fuses Avicii’s trademark brand of uplifting EDM music coupled with serene visualscapes". It'll be appearing on Switch, Xbox One and PC for the first time, with a re-launch planned for PS4 (where it had orirginally released under the name Avicii Vector).

Avicii, aka Tim Bergling, saw the original game's release on PS4 before his tragic passing in 2018; this new release has been created by Wired Productions and Hello There Games in collaboration with Bergling's family. It has been revealed that portions of the game royalties will go directly to The Tim Bergling Foundation, which advocates for the recognition of suicide as a global health emergency and promotes removing the stigma attached to the discussion of mental health issues.
