TRAGsoft's Pokémon-like RPG Coromon has a brand new release date of 21st July, publisher Freedom Games has announced. The game was originally due to be released on Switch back in March, but due to cross-platform multiplayer issues, the game was delayed on the console.
Coromon was meant to hit the Switch on the same day as the game's Steam release, but the team needed time to work out the issues with multiplayer. Now, those are seemingly fixed and fans of monster-catching games can relax and they'll have a brand new adventure to embark on in just two weeks time!
In Coromon, you're part of the Lux Solis organisation, which is training and studying various creatures called 'Coromon'. There are 120 of these beasts to capture and battle across the many biomes of Velua, and with beautiful pixel art and plenty of formidable monsters, you'll be sucked into another collect 'em all for hours!
Here's some more information about the upcoming Switch version of Coromon from Freedom Games, the game's publisher:
Coromon, the modern monster-taming RPG from developer TRAGsoft and publisher Freedom Games, chooses Nintendo Switch to join its squad after collecting more than 100,000 unit sales on PC. Cross-save features between PC and console will also become available at launch, on July 21, 2022.
Plant an eager foot into the Velua region and encounter powerful creatures called Coromon. Assume the role of an apprentice Coromon researcher to study and catch these adorable, yet formidable animals as a member of the illustrious Lux Solis organization. Join the Titan Taskforce to foil an evil rival institution’s corrupt plans to harness the fabled Coromon Titans’ powers and rain chaos upon the world.
Explore six beautiful pixel-art biomes including icy terrains, marshy swamps, and dark dungeons, all containing their own distinct Coromon. Encounter more than 120 different species and bring together an A-team of ferocious fighters to battle enemies. Strategize for each encounter with the use of seven element types and custom stats distribution for each Coromon to develop a top-tier roster.
Cruise through the adventure with a variety of difficulty options ranging from a more casual gameplay experience or test the squad’s limits with the built-in fan-favorite “Nuzlocke” and randomizer options. Craft a personalized trainer and take the Lux Solis personality test to choose the best beginner battling buddy.
“Coromon is our love letter to a treasured game genre and we cherish this opportunity to finally bring it to Nintendo Switch,” said Jochem Pouwels, Founder, TRAGsoft. “After the overwhelmingly positive response to Coromon’s PC launch, and with how patient everyone has been, we want to thank our community for being so supportive and encouraging. We expect everyone’s creature catching journeys on the go will meet all expectations they have had for us!”
Coromon will launch on the eShop for $19.99 with English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazilian), Russian, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese (Simplified) language support.

while the mon at the end of the title seems unnecessary, it might be fun to check out
I actually wasn't interested in this in the slightest when it was originally announced. However, after watching some streamers play through it, it looks like a really cool and fun take on traditional Pokemon so I may just pick this up after all.
July is the worst month to release this. Too much else to play on the platform
What a month for great releases.
Bought it on PC during the Steam Summer Sale it's alright I guess but I prefer Nexomon though. TemTem is pretty good too.
Let's go! I have kept this one of my radar for a long time--glad we don't have to wait too much longer.
@Royalblues I certainly do. I was still in middle school when that came out and was going onward to highschool.
Too bad I wasn't interested at the time...
Definitely itches the old-school gameboy Pokemon scratch that I'd say a good amount of people have, myself included. Might be worth to check it out
@Mando44646 No, November would be the worst month to release this. It'd die quickly in the face of Pokemon Scarlet/Violet. This is a much better time to release it, when Gen 9 is still four months away.
I was just looking this up last night. Have to check it out on mobile to see if it'll be worth the $20
do we know what, if any, online interactions with other players there will be for this game?
@Royalblues indeed! Me and my best friend at the time both got a copy of the 1st one on the DS.
It was a really cool take on the genre. Helps I loved fossils before that. So finding and escavating cool ancient looking mons that could evolve was really neat. And your character fighting alongside them too. The future theme was cool as well. Def was the freshest take on it I've played. Def would buy it if they made another! Kinda surprised they didn't hit the 3ds.
In a way the fossil aspect was kinda like monster rancher.
@Bret considering July has 3 major JRPGs in Xenoblade, Digimon, and Live A Live, its about equal
@Royalblues GymLeaderEd on youtube does exactly, you should check out his channel
