Played this game on my PC for a couple of hours when it dropped. I stopped when I decided to buy a Switch. It's coming to the eShop. The game is absolutely gorgeous and really well made.

If you haven't heard or seen anything about it you should totally check it out! If the term "Metroidvania" makes you interested, I would call it that.

Yep, I've been waiting for this one. Still no release date - I tried tweeting to get it out of them but nada.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

@gcunit Yeah, that's the boring part. But "they" say it's not that hard to port games to Switch. So I'm hoping for a announcement soon!

Yes! I love Metroidvanias! I'm in. When I saw this thread, I thought it was yet another Shovel Knight game (which isn't a bad thing), but this looks great. Extremely solid reviews on Metacritic too, FWIW.

I bought that impulsively yesterday on steam. Played it with my nintendo switch controller and it felt SO GREAT. I was telling myself "I wish it could be on the Switch so I can play more anywhere" because this game looks like one you could play for a very long time. I saw that it was aiming to release on the switch so I stopped playing to get a Steam refund. No w I just hope it won't take long. It was the best hour of gaming in a long time. the gameplay is so tight. and the switch pro controller worked like a charm for this one.

@Fake-E-Lee
This direct was mostly new announcements. But Hollow Knight's port was complete in july so it shouldn't take long. Maybe they're waiting for the right window to lounch it (so I guess a bit after Mario launches)

Same, almost bought it on Steam but held myself back just in time. A few days ago the game page appeared on several global Nintendo sites though, so maybe it has been sent in already for testing (https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Games/Nintendo-Switch-download-software/Hollow-Knight-1125772.html).

While you guys are waiting, I have a suggestion for you.
If you haven't played Axiom Verge yet... play Axiom Verge! Frickin' great game!

@Fake-E-Lee Same thing here. I try to keep me updated with this game. I heard nothing so far. still suppose to be early 2018. They are just 2 devs so......we gotta give them a little room to make things work properly on the switch.

@Bunkerneath No, sadly. I looked through their twitter feed earlier today. I am hoping for some news soon.

@doomgc They are getting help from another team with the port for Switch. So they're not all alone, fortunately.

@Beluganator Looking good! Now all we need is release date!
