Metroidvania FIST: Forged In Shadow Torch is launching on the Switch eShop later this month, but fans have also been promised a physical edition of the game from publisher Microids. Now we know that the boxed version of the game will be making the jump just a few months later, on 6th September.
Gematsu reports that the physical edition comes with a steelbook, a digital download for a soundtrack, a sticker sheet, and three lithograph prints. Developed by Shanghai-based studio TiGames, this port — and the physical edition — has been a long time coming for Switch owners. PlayStation fans won't be missing out on the physical version either, which drops on the same day.
The price for the physical version hasn't been announced yet. However, you'll be able to download FIST: Forged In Shadow Torch on 12th July from the eShop for $29.99/€29.99.

I already preordered the Japanese release from Playasia around a week ago. I'm hoping it will have the steelbook too, and that the boxart was just a placeholder. If not, ouch.
Hm having looked again, only the limited edition has the extras. Oh well.
Standard edition pre-orders have been open for a while at many places I check, but I've not seen limited edition pre-orders yet.
Where can I snag it? Listings on GAME.co.uk or Amazon UK right now appear to just be the standard edition.
This looks great, but I'm not sure how it's going to perform on the Switch, I'd like to know before I order the collectors edition...
Standard physical edition is 39.99USD on Amazon. Haven't seen anything on the limited edition pricing.
Good news! This game looks amazing!
@LittleGhost That is the limited edition, if you read the description.
@Mariobricklayer I’d assume it will take a hit on performance. Plus with the graphical style in this game, I think handheld mode would be rough on details. I love my OLED, but I’ll be getting this on PlayStation.
This is available for pre-order on Amazon (US) for $39.99 and yes that includes all of the extra goodies. It's called the "Day 1" edition.
This is my most anticipated game for this year! It looks absolutely fantastic!!!
Would definitely have to see how poorly this inevitably runs in the Switch before even thinking about tossing money at it even if it looks pretty decent.
Loved this game on PC. Not sure how well it will run on Switch but let's hope it's decent
@RupeeClock Found on Amazon NA, PreOrdered...

Where the hell do you pre-order the limited edition? Can't find it anywhere
Edit: so the Amazon listing looks like standard edition but if you read description, comes with steel book and everything in the limited edition!
Glad this is coming to Switch, was interested ever since it was on other platforms last year. Nice little physical edition too.
Looks the part. However 2D platforming looks standard. That isn't a bad thing, but......
@Bizzyb Does it mean that the extra goodies will not be included to be purchased after the day 1 release?
