It's hip to be square
Qbby's back and coming to Switch, and he's bringing a lady friend with him. BoxBoy! + BoxGirl! will arrive on Switch on April 26th. It will include two-player support and you'll need that support to get through 270 head-scratching levels.
The trailer mentions that this one is tightly packed with brand new puzzles and even some brand new features. Looks like we've got some puzzling to do, folks!
Happy to see Qbby make the jump from 3DS to Switch? Let us know in the comments!

I loved the trilogy on 3DS and I’m excited to play this on the big screen.
BOXBOY was pretty fun. Not jumping up and down for a new one but I'll probably grab it. Especially if it's pretty cheap like the previous games.
It will be a great game like the last three, but I'm not sure a 4th was needed. I can understand why they did it though and I'll still buy it.
having Box-Girl's name on the marquis makes this a must-buy for me!
Huh, cool. I thought the 3DS trilogy conclusively finished it though.
Not complaining, would be happy to play this, I beat the other three 100% save for going for perfect clears of stages.
I was hoping for the trilogy but this looks great too of course. Hopefully the originals will come anyway. I'd love a physical collection.
Well co-op looks good but I found myself getting bored of Box Boy games after a while.
We need some Nintendo Labo skins in this game immediately.
Only heard good things about this series... but never played it myself. Time to try it out?
Was hoping they'd remaster the original trilogy for Switch, but this is even better!
looks kind of boring.
I'm really happy about this announcement, this series is just wonderful.
Wonder if they make a BoxGirl Amiibo as the BoxBoy is so overpriced it's not worth getting.
I want buy this because it looks fun and puzzling although i wonder about playing single player because it looked like it should be geared towards a 2 player experience. I’ve never played this before.
The first 3 were great so this is a definite buy from me.
Does this mean they will finally release the Box Boy amiibo outside of Japan? Please. Please. Please! And Box Girl too.
Just need pushmo and I am set!
I hope they bring the Amiibo over at launch...
Oh hey, I still need to finish the second and third installments on my 3DS.
Special edition with the amiibo, please?!?!?!
you've made mistake in the title - it should be BoyBoy! + GirlGirl!
I didn't expect a new entry in the series since ByeBye Boxboy was supposed to be the last. Definitely getting it.
Yessss....one of the lil highlights of the direct for me, tbh. ^^
I was never a gigantic fan, but I think I liked the third one the most. So yeah, I might buy it. But its not on the top of my list.
