If you love nothing more than poop jokes, fart gags and controversial internet personalities, then boy do we have the game for you today.
Yes, Poopdie, a dungeon crawler developed and published by Bulbware with creative input from YouTube star Pewdiepie, is set to arrive on Switch next month. Originally released as a free title on Android and iOS, the game will land on Switch under the name Poopdie - Chapter One and can be pre-purchased for $5 ahead of its 25th June release.
Here's the official description and a selection of screenshots:
Very, very deep in the Kingdom of Grounds, tiny worm lies hopeless in his pond of tears. He doesn’t know that soon he will give birth to great miracles and his name will never be forgotten.
Dungeon crawler from PewDiePie & Bulbware. Mold and manage your own Troops! Upgrade them with unique skills. Cast ancient spells. Defeat evil Samron and his army of horrid creatures.
If you're interested, we'll leave you with this second trailer which shows off a little more gameplay. Feel free to share your thoughts on the game with us in the comments below.

Didn't play his previous game on Switch, but heard it was good. Might look at reviews on this one. Not really my thing though.
Let's keep the comments nice folks!
Getting very strong Binding of Isaac vibes from this
Looks quite nice actually! Like the music too.
Looks very much like BOI, and I enjoyed Bulb Boy.
I'll give it a punt though, looks like it could be fun.
@AhabSpampurse
Ah yeah Bulb Boy! That was a cool experience, really liked the whole aesthetic and atmosphere in that one.
I've never been less interested in a game.
@PewnyPL That was my first thought. Binding of Isaac, but in a more Mystery Dungeon style.
Looks like *****!
@Orpheus79V @PewnyPL Yeah, exactly my thoughts too, but Isaac looks and plays better from looking at this trailer alone. Some people want a game with grossout humor, I want a game that’s good if I have to put up with grossout humor.
@SouthpawGrammar You may not like him, but there are millions of people who do. So making a game in collaboration with him isn't all that strange.
This guy commands armies of eleven year olds, right?
Free on mobile but we’ll charge you $5 ... yeah that’s a hard pass from me
@NinChocolate he is a multi millionaire from what I understand. His demographic is more or less in line with Nintendo's.
Huh. Didn't know the guy made games.
@NinChocolate Nineteen year olds now, I'll have you know.
@TeeJay He doesn't. Bulbware made this one. Bulbware is cashing in on Pew's perplexing and undeserved fame by letting him slap his name on it.
I generally like Pewdiepie, but he really needs to upgrade his sense of humour past the stage of a 14 year old.
@Dezzy then he wouldnt be pewdiepie!
@popey1980
Yeah, I don't see how they can justify that additional price tag considering they've kept the micro transactions.
@SouthpawGrammar
You're aware that the article asked for your thoughts on the game, right? My thoughts on him are rather lukewarm, to put it nicely. However I don't see the need for comments like that.
If I want fart humor, I'll play Binding of Isaac. It's a fun game with a greate aesthetic, I don't need or want this.
No thanks i'll pass
The guys an ass clown
Will the character scream the N word when it is killed
@TheLightSpirit ehm, millions of 10 year olds like Nintendo. In fact Nintendo is incredibly proud of the fact so many children love Nintendo games.
Same with Disney and apple products.
Why isn't there any quality control on the Eshop
Ah yes, he's sooooooooooooo controversial. Ugh I swear every time he's mentioned anywhere they say that
If I wanted to watch something unfunny, I'd watch a bowl of cornflakes and milk go soggy. Or Steven clam chowder.
Point is, here's one game I'll not lose money on.
Have fun with your emperor god king, kids.
Better grab those pickaxes bois, we in the salt mines now
I’ve been watching him for about 8 years now, the last 4 of which are active watching years. Anyone saying he’s cringey and for children haven’t seen a video post 2017 of his. Anyone mentioning his controversial past haven’t actually seen any of his videos at all probably.
He’s a great guy, he does great things for charities and stuff. He fought his way back up to the top after he made some major and some minor mistakes, I respect him for that...
However, I don’t like his games, so I won’t be playing this.
Not even if it was 1p.
This guy is a menace to decent society.
Oof, would not want to have this game associated with my name, especially not if I was a successful online personality.
Ugh, not in a million years. The guy knows what he’s doing, mixing with the very dregs of society. You can try to be a nice person all you want but when your bills are being paid by horrible morons then you’re gonna have to pander.
The fact that this guy is popular still is one of life's greatest mysteries.
Poop on its own doesn't make a joke, it's just sh*t.

Erm, I think I have more creativity in my little finger.
@darkswabber Public charity is not charity. Charity to make yourself look better than you did because of poor decisions is even more self serving. Just look at the super rich people giving out millions of dollars so they can evade paying taxes. Don't kid yourself.
A lot of tough guys in here. Majority of people either have hyped up worse games on this site or have worse games on their Switch.
@Jayofmaya not all his donations are publicly known, and he donated to charities before the controversies in 2016 and 2017.
He’s also not very materialistic so he prefers giving his money to charities rather than keeping it.
God no never. I don't like the guy nor do I him funny at all. Hard pass.
Just no, no, no no.
I am an immature Toad, so this with the five dollars could be right up my alley.
The in-game purchases marker next to that rating however is making me weary.
You'd have to pay me to play this game. And it would cost you a pretty hefty sum!
@TheLightSpirit I'm not defending him. I don't know him, personally and never watch his YT video's, so I don't see a reason to either defend or attack him. I'm staying neutral here.
I'm against just hating people just because they are famous or it's "cool" to hate on them.
I am not a fan of him (far from it) but the game looks like idiotic fun. Reminds me of the binding of Isaac, so its probably rogue. If so, its a pass.
I won't support that overhyped youtube personality.
The game happens to be garbage also.
@StevenH
“I hate these so-called ‘content creators’ in general. They’re just a small step up from ‘influencers’.”
I typically agree; however, my man Wood Hawker (BeatEmUps, or something like that) does some pretty cool, Switch-based videos. He’s kinda corny, but seems like an honest, decent dude based on some of his reviews. Non-toxic, at least, especially if you’re a fan of squarespace.!
