A fun fact about the Nintendo Life staff is that several of us have degrees in astrophysics. This is a definitely true fact, and please don't think too hard about why we decided to become video game journalists instead of working a highly paid NASA job. Having a great deal of knowledge about the workings of our solar system means that we get pretty riled up by all these games set in space, because very few of them actually depict what it's like out in the big wide universe.
Finally, Breathedge has got it right: not only does it show space as a very spooky, dark, and lonely place to be, it also is the only depiction of chickens in space we've ever seen. Not many people know this, but all astronauts have to legally take a chicken with them, and Breathedge even shows the ice-dispensing chicken bum that comes as standard.
Ok, but seriously: Breathedge is a first-person survival game set in space, in which you'll have to try to fix things, avoid things, solve a mystery, and not die. Pshh, easy. We've been doing that our whole lives.
Breathedge combines frights and funnies, too, with its mix of "oh no, everything is going horribly wrong" and "haha, those guys got squished by a giant TV". If you liked Alien: Isolation, but wished it had more irreverent body-horror comedy, this might be just what you're looking for.
Breathedge will be coming to Switch on the 6th April, so you won't have to... get this... hold your breath.

hell yeah this looks great
Paging @Ryu_Niiyama
Absolutely god-tier tagline 😂😂
Day one if the chicken is voiced by Alan Tudyk.
The chicken would be the best part of the entire game, nothing else is required. Except for a few hoppers, 2 dispensers, a lava bucket, and a chest. Gotta eat somehow right?
@COVIDberry Lmao!! Ok color me curious!
Yeah this caught my attention when I was browsing the upcoming games.
wait a minute... amogus!?
Looks interesting, but I doubt it will look that good on Switch, not that it matters too much.
Wait! Did I see that correctly?? Was that chicken...literally...crapping bricks at the 00:25 mark of the video?!? 🤣🤣🤣
This would be the perfect launch title for the KFConsole.
That tagline shows the might of the pen.
Oh heck yeah. Didn't know this was coming to switch. Been eyeballing it on PC.
Astronautica
Anyone remember that Space Walking/Astronaut game Nintendo was making/promoting that just disappeared? Or is it just me..?
I would like to learn more about why astronauts are required to bring a chicken into space! Where can I learn more about this?
Finally, a protagonist with astigmatism. I feel seen!
I’m here for the awesome tagline!
And the poultry.
@KateGray here is the actual console release trailer from their Discord.
