Modus Games has today announced a brand new adventure game headed to Nintendo Switch in 2019 - Ary and the Secret of Seasons.
Ary and the Secret of Seasons follows the journey of a young girl named Ary across the magnificent world of Valdi (as in Vivaldi's Four Seasons, we're guessing). Ary has joined the Guardians of Seasons, an old organisation traditionally ruled by men, in a move that surprises everyone around. The reason for this? To successfully restore Valdi's seasons - a challenge which no other guardian has ever managed.
To help complete this quest, Ary can summon small spheres that act as tiny ecosystems for each season, changing the environment within to suit her needs. The spheres can be opened up three at a time, allowing Ary to jump from winter to summer to autumn in a single leap. This mechanic is used to introduce environmental puzzles and "innovative gameplay".
Sebastien Le Touze, CEO at the game's developer eXiin, and Christina Seelye, CEO of Modus Games, have commented on the announcement from Gamescom:
Le Touze: "We are excited to bring our beloved Ary to Gamescom once again, this time with our partners at Modus. We are confident those that come by to view the game will understand what makes Ary so special."
Seelye: "Our team felt an instant connection to this game, and we couldn't be happier to be publishing it next year. It's a one-of-a-kind adventure that shouldn't be missed."
We'll make sure to look out for any more news on this one as we slowly head towards 2019.
Until then, though, feel free to share your thoughts on this one in the comments below.

Seems like something I’d like. Hope it’s good.
Looks pretty decent. One to keep on my radar.
Not expecting open world for this game but it looks amazing.
Count me in! I love the look of this.
I'm in. That was hilarious. xD
Ary and the Oracle of Seasond? Oh wait, maybe not, lol
I'll have to keep an eye out for this.
I Like the concept of manipulating seasons in small areas. It suggests fun gameplay to me. Let's keep an eye on it to see more news
Here is hoping this turns into a solid game.
That seasons mechanic looks amazing. I hope it reflects well.
Looks interesting. Reminds me of Rare's "Kameo: Elements of Power" on Xbox360.
@rjejr
I hope it doesn't suck like Kameo did. This looks more compelling, anyway.
Looks very cute and like it has potential.
Reminds me of time shift stones. I do remember commenting on this game on Facebook once saying it was like zelda and the developer actually commented back saying he’d never played skyward sword before so hadn’t seen the time shift stones before and went on to explain how unique there Game was.
@sandman89 Thought I'd seen that stone somewhere before. Even the title of the game made me think of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons on the GBC.
Really liking the look of this one so far. Am just hoping it will turn out to be a good game.
Oh, this is looking good! It's been good to hear the announcements for more mature games, but great to see this too. A choice is always nice.
The game sounds like it could be interesting. Can’t wait to hear more about it as It gets closer to launch
Sure why not. Looks nice. Hope reviews are good!
Looks okay.
