Humble Games and Moonlight Kids have announced that The Wild at Heart, an indie adventure game that launched on PC and Xbox One earlier this summer, will now be arriving on Switch later this year.
Telling a story of childhood escapism, this "story-rich" adventure will no doubt remind Nintendo fans of Pikmin. The game sees you taking command of a magical swarm of curious creatures, teaming up with them to battle threatening wildlife and supernatural foes, build new pathways, and discover the world's secrets.
In the trailer above, you'll spot these creatures being used to pick up and carry objects and fight against enemies, just like Captain Olimar's trusty band of plant-animal hybrids in Nintendo's beloved series. Make sure to give it a watch.
KEY FEATURES:
EXPLORATION: Explore a unique world, set up new camps, locate rare resources, befriend strange creatures, and loot ancient shrines.
COLLECTION: Collect magic crystals, scrap, electrical components, and other unique resources.
BATTLE: Command a diverse army of spritelings to battle hostile creatures
CRAFT: Craft new structures, items, tools, and upgrades.
DISCOVER: Discover the truth of this forgotten world and its inhabitants.
We'll make sure to keep an eye out for news of a solid release date for this one, but let us know if you're liking the look of the game with a comment below.

There was another Pikmin clones from Wholesome Indie Direct last June 2021 if I remembered.
I forgot the title but the game was definitely in 3D environments with a place in bedroom from the trailer I saw.
I do. I need Pikmin 4 lol 😆
HEY! Pikmin is Pikmin4.
This looks so gooood.
It's okay. I got quite bored after a while, but it's full of charm.
@Anti-Matter You mean Tinykin! I saw another called Worship, also looked very cool
I played it to completion on Game Pass. This game isn’t nearly as good as Pikmin. It’s charming and has great music, the art is fantastic, but the gameplay isn’t as varied or well executed as Pikmin, and controls can be a little finicky.
Pikmin + Cartoon Saloon + Gravity Falls?
Don't mind if I do!
I’ve never understood just taking another games main mechanic. I have a new game coming out where two hvac workers one is short and has balanced controls while the other is minuets younger and is slightly taller and jumps higher at the cost of friction. They have to stop and Komodo dragon from taking over the truffle kingdom but it will look like Phineas and Ferbs art style.
@Res462 yessss I’m glad you liked the music! My old friend, Amos Roddy was the composer! So cool seeing him work on more and more projects. He also did In Other Waters, Kingdom Two Crowns, and others
Pikmin via Knights & Bikes. I'm very interested!
@Res462 Ditto. It’s a fine game an scratched the itch for more Pikmin, but it’s just not the same. Time well spent but set your expectations accordingly.
@Piratejim
Ah, Tinykin.
Thanks for the reminder.
BTW, physical release of that game already confirmed from playasia.
