The re-release of the colourful puzzle-platform game, de Blob, recently arrived on the Switch in June. Now, according to a listing on Nintendo's North American website, de Blob 2 will arrive on the Switch in both physical and digital form on 28th August for $29.99.
de Blob 2 was originally released in 2008 on the Wii and was developed by the Australian-based team, Blue Tongue Entertainment. In the sequel, Comrade Black and the Inkies have returned and their mission is once again to rid the world of colour. It's now up to Blob and his friends to bring colour back to the citizens of Prisma City.
In de Blob 2 there are 12 new single player story levels, new power-ups, more boss battles and also a co-operative multiplayer mode.

Hopefully this means more support from thq
de Blob was a title I missed back in the Wii days and I have quite enjoyed playing it this time around on Switch. I'll be looking forward to the next installment.
I have the wii version but I will probably pick it up anyways. I don’t mind transitioning to A portable HD version.
These were a favorite franchise during the Wii era. So much, in fact, I made a little Smash mockup with him in it during that time, cause I felt like he was a Nintendo-like game so much.
Would desperately enjoy a third game.
Is 2 better than 1? I got bored during the first one
Can’t wait!
I’ll be getting both now!
de Blob 2 is even bigger and better than de Blob 1.
Seems expensive. Isn’t this game normally about $5 or so on PSN sales?
How nice is that. I was hoping for this
The first game wasn't amazing, but it was decent. I'll end up picking this up sometime later, after a price drop, probably.
What’s up with the quiet release of these games? I don’t even see them at retailers (in the US).
I played the original back on the Wii but never the sequel, so I'll definitely pick it up at some point on Switch. (Also, there's a mistake in this article; it says de Blob 2 was released in 2008, but that's when de Blob 1 was released.)
Really hope this means we could be seeing a deBlob 3 sometime soon. The first two were some of my favourite games on the Wii and I remember having a blast with them. I don't really replay games so I'm not going to double dip on these unless there is a significant amount of new content.
I have a good time on Switch with De Blob. When I'm not playing Ys
Really happy, that De Blob 2 comes as well
Another one for the wishlist...

My impression is that it's much more varied and just better overall. It's sole crime is being somewhat similar to a game I also grew tired of midway. I biught 2 and couldn't stat interested after the opening hours for that reason, but everything was at the least a charming and pretty as the first game, with lots of new stuff like side-scrolling segments and a second playable character.
I hope it's not overpriced in digital only countries like the first game was.
