Earlier this year, we were told that 2064: Read Only Memories Integral was going to arrive on Switch in April; of course, this date came and went without any sign of the game on the system, so where is it? Well, thankfully, the game is now scheduled to release on 14th August - so there isn't too long to wait.
The game has been received well on other platforms - our chums over at Push Square awarded the game a very healthy 8/10 - so we're excited to see the title land on Switch. If you haven't heard much about this one before, here's a taste of what to expect from the game's synopsis:
Neo-San Francisco, 2064 AD. Your life as a struggling journalist is interrupted by the world’s first sapient machine, a ROM (Relationship and Organizational Manager) named Turing. Together, you and the quirky robot will encounter a colorful cast of locals and overcome challenges as you uncover the city’s secrets behind the overlapping futures of technology and humanity. 2064: Read Only Memories is a new cyberpunk adventure that will take you on a journey of puzzle-solving and exploring as you investigate the mysterious world and characters of Neo-San Francisco.
As hinted at in the new trailer above, this cyberpunk adventure will benefit from some exclusive content on Nintendo Switch. Players will be able to take to the streets in the 'Punks' side story, a remastered and fully-voiced slice of content only available on the system. Other bonus goodies included in this definitive edition of Read Only Memories include video clips from the cutting room floor, a jukebox with never-before-heard tracks, and all of the "voice acting, other polish and content" added to the game since its initial launch.
The game will apparently be available from the Nintendo Switch eShop for the quirky price of $20.64, with a 10% pre-order discount available from today.

"The game will apparently be available from the Nintendo Switch eShop for the quirky price of $20.64"
oh developers (or whoever brought the idea of the price), you deserve a cake!
This looks brilliant! Were all the other versions called 2063? Switch is always late lol.
@Aozz101x But that's a dangerous precedent to set! If they'd ever release a game set in the middle ages, it would have to be at half the price! And if say the game were set in ancient egypt... they would have to pay us to buy it! XD
After reading this no thanks.

As a Snatcher lookalike, this game has had my attention since the beginning Can't wait.
I would also like to point out that the developers swore they would never release on Nintendo hardware after Nintendo fired that one lady.
i want nothing to being a journalist, because i tried working for ign, i want nothing to do with ign, san francisco, or anything related to ign, so no i am not interested
Physical release eventually?
Big nope. The dev is a scumbag. It could be the best game in the world, i still wouldn't touch it
Instant buy!
I also though that $20.64 price was a nice piece of clever. Getting a strong 80s vibe with this one. Well, the 1980s + 80 equals the 2060's so...
Perhaps this time it will release on its release date.
Stoked. I’ve been meaning to play this on Vita, but I’d rather have that big beautiful Switch screen.
@RazumikhinPG This is nowhere near as good as Snatcher, or Policenauts.
I really wanted to like this game, but the characters just... talk too much.
I know they're supposed to talk, but less is more. I might return to it, but that robot in particular is triggering my Issun trauma.
@Orpheus79V But it seems inspired by it.
Definite buy.
@jn2002dk Hey, a bit late to the party, but what happened with the developer?
