Nomada Studio and Devolver Digital have announced Gris, a gorgeous looking puzzle-platformer that is headed to Switch and PC later this year.

The game is described as a "serene and evocative narrative experience", with puzzles, platforming sequences, and optional skill-based challenges revealing themselves to the player as more and more of Gris’s world becomes accessible. The world is brought to life with delicate art, detailed animation (the bird in the trailer was a particular highlight), and an elegant original score.

Check out the game's official synopsis:

Gris is a hopeful young girl lost in her own world, dealing with a painful experience in her life. Her journey through sorrow is manifested in her dress, which grants new abilities to better navigate her faded reality. As the story unfolds, Gris will grow emotionally and see her world in a different way, revealing new paths to explore using her new abilities.

Currently, Gris is scheduled to launch on Switch in December, although no further information has been provided just yet. We'll watch out for any more specific release date information and pricing as the wintery months draw ever nearer.
