As part of today's Nintendo Indie World showcase, it has been revealed that Sports Story is headed exclusively to Switch.
The game is a sequel to the much-adored Golf Story - a fantastic RPG that's more than worth your time - and as you might expect, more sports have arrived. As you can see in the tweet below, you can expect to play golf and tennis, go fishing, explore dungeons, and much more.
The game's set to launch in mid-2020, so if you haven't experienced the original Golf Story yet, you've got plenty of time to do just that.
A welcome start to the show? Will you be all over this when it launches next year? Tell us below.

I need this. Golf Story was soooooooo good.
These guys are right up there with Shin-en when it comes to "why are they not an official Nintendo developer."
Ohhh yeah!!! Golf Story was a work of genius and I'm so happy to see these guys back! Bring on the sausage rolls and rap battles.
I found Golf Story far too long and repetitive for what it offered gameplay wise. Hopefully this will mix things up and provide a more varied experience.
...For some bizarre reason, I stopped playing Golf Story, I don't know why. I need to finish that game. lol
@PBandSmelly You could still get it. It's really fun for the most part and the dialogue is sometimes hilarious.
Nice! Though I technically have yet to complete Golf Story, that is I've done the whole game but not the last competition to actually finish the game. It was just so frustrating.
Loved Golf Story so cant wait for this. Have wanted a follow-up ever since it came out
Golf story is proper laugh out loud stuff. The writing is hilarious. Can’t wait for this sequel!
So, so, so excited for this!
LOVED Golf Story.
This was a tremendously pleasant surprise.
This was the whole direct for me. Nothing else matched the caliber of this announcement. Love Golf story, can’t wait for mid 2020
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
This was a treat. Haven't finished Golf Story ( the Blue Moon Dunes Championship is a b****. ). But what a wonderful delight it is. Hopefully, this continues that same great gameplay and story.
DAY 1 Cannot wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Day one. Loved Golf Story!
I so need this!!
Really looking forward to this. Golf Story was amazing. I just hope that the sports included will not be degraded to "mini-games".
Still, I'll be there Day One to give it a shot!
Awesome news~!!
I’m so excited for this! Day one for sure! Golf story was so much fun and this looks fantastic!
If Wii Sports got turn into an RPG, it would be like this game. Definitely buying it day one as I too enjoy Golf Story adn We Love Golf.
Sounds great, just hoping with all those spots on offer it doesn't water things down too much. Nice that it's a Switch exclusive too, usually we're the ones waiting for games to be ported from other consoles.
Very cool, one of the indie gems on switch was golf story.
Best announcement of the day easily.
Was just hoping for a “Tennis Story” style sequel, and was pleasantly surprised by this. I hope they can nail the mechanics for so many sports!
Just brilliant. Getting this on day one!
I'm almost st the end of Golf Story. This announcement is great news for me!
Uh, okay? I don’t see what’s so special about Golf Story but sure why not.
Not expecting anything I’d be interested in this presentation, but this was beyond a pleasant surprise...
Nice, day one purchase! I ended up buying it Digital and again when it was released by limited run (together with thr vinyl of that awesome soundtrack!). Have to support these guys!!
Pretty cool. I enjoyed Golf Story, though not as much as say Mario Golf on 3DS or even on the GBA. But I'll keep my eyes on this.
This was a nice surprise as the lead off to today's Indie World. Really loving Golf Story, so I'm looking forward to this one.
Great way to start, really enjoyed Golf Story
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a combo physical version
@tobsesta99
If you really liked Mario Golf, particularly gameboy/gba era, that's the crowd Golf Story appeals to.
One aspect Id like to see them improve is course leaderboards for all time best scores. The original Golf on GB included a top 5 leaderboard for each course...Id like to see top ten or so. It really added to the replay factor trying to beat your best scores.
This is so dumb I’m so happy it looks so great.
Having just finished Golf Story last nigh, I am eagerly waiting for this game now.
