Inertia Games Studios has revealed that its upcoming multiplayer party title Catastronauts will be arriving on Switch later this month.
The game is described as "a fast-paced, chaotic couch co-op experience" with one to four players assuming the role of an intergalactic starfleet, locked in an epic battle with an invading enemy vessel and unrelenting disaster.
Players will need to keep their craft together by putting out fires, repairing systems, and loading and firing space cannons, much of which can only be done by working as a team. The whole thing seems like it could be a lovely little blend of Overcooked 2 and Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime - we'll have to see how it plays when it launches.
Catastronauts arrives on the European eShop on 24th December, with the North American release coming just after on 3rd January 2019.
Will you be treating yourself to this one for the holidays? Let us know in the comments.

Ok I read the name of this game completely wrong, read it as castranauts, was not a good image
I would say it's Overcooked applied to FTL: Faster Than Light (the ship interior looks very similar to the starting Kestrel). My friends/family and I are struggling with Overcooked, so I assume this game wouldn't be for us
Catastronauts ?
I think the best title is Overheat.
Btw, still hoping for physical release in the future.
they aped the entire design and look of overcooked…
heha, nice. If it has online multiplayer, I may consider giving this game a shot.
This looks good. Just like a multiplayer Faster than Light
I thought the title said Castlevania for a second.
This looks like a fun one. Like Overcooked in space!
If this is reflective of the game's performance on Switch then color me impressed! I didn't think they'd be able to hit 60fps.
If it's anything like a mix of my 2 fave multiplayer indie games on Switch I'm in.
