Humble Bundle and developer Greg Lobanov have revealed that their side-scrolling musical adventure Wandersong will be serenading our Switch consoles on 27th September.
We first heard about this one coming to Nintendo's console back in November, with its cutesy - but also bizarre - concept intriguing us way back then. As we've mentioned, Wandersong is described as "a musical adventure" where you use singing to save the world. You'll be playing as a "silly" bard who embarks on a globe-trotting journey to learn about the mysterious Earthsong - something which is said to prevent the universe’s imminent end.
Naturally, it's up to you to sing your songs, unlock the world's secrets, and make new friends along the way. Gameplay comes in the form of puzzles, as well as character-helping tasks which must be fulfilled, and everything is completed by using your incredible singing voice. As you can see in the new date announcement trailer, it appears that your voice is even used to carry you around the game's world.
Here is a list of game features and screenshots for you to explore:
Game Features:
- Use singing to interact with the world!
- Tons of characters to meet and discover!
- Tons of characters to annoy with your singing!
- An epic journey across a rainbow colored planet
- Whimsy
As noted above, Wandersong will be released on Switch on 27th September. North American Switch owners can pre-purchase the game from midnight tonight (7th September, Pacific time), and European fans can also get in on the pre-purchase action on the 14th.

Lose my mind and money over music games.
This looks like an odd one, though. Gonna hafta look more into it and hear more. Guess I'm more familiar with... "rhythm," games, and this... doesn't look rhythmically inclined.
Interesting, for sure. Got a loco roco vibe.
Funny, just like the game Forgotten Anne, I've been looking for more info on this game for months. Now all of a sudden, in the same week we get conformations for both games I'm gonna get it for sure.

Aquaria... Now that is a game that needs a Switch release...
I've sent a tweet to @BitBlot but the account seems pretty much dead.
Edit: Got a tweet back from Alec Holowka, the dev. He says he's unsure but he'd be open to it.
Im ashamed to admit it, but I'm probably going to love playing this.

Why feel ashamed? I'm 39 years old and love games that take me out of the day to day monotony. Currently I'm playing God of War on PS4 but just to change up things I like to play games that make me stop to think and react fast and to relax and just feel... This game just seems right up my alley for that.
I’ve been waiting for this one. I love cute, quirky games.
We all agree this has a unique value proposition! Trailer makes it look fun as hell!
This looks great. Count me in
Been waiting for this! Should be fun times!
If the gameplay is legit I need to have this super weird game.
