Publisher THQ Nordic has announced that the apocalyptic shooter Remnant: From the Ashes will be making its way to the Switch on March 21st, 2023 for the price of € 39.99 / $ 39.99 / £ 34.99 / AU$ 59.95.
The game originally launched back in 2019 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, with a direct sequel currently in the works. It takes place in a world that's been "thrown into chaos" by beings from another dimension, and it's up to you to adapt and survive in four unique worlds with up to two additional players.
Here's some more information from THQ Nordic:
The world has been thrown into chaos by an ancient evil from another dimension. As one of the last remnants of humanity, you must set out alone or alongside up to two other survivors to face down hordes of deadly enemies to try to carve a foothold, rebuild, and retake what was lost.
- Explore dynamically-generated worlds that change each time you play through them, creating new maps, enemy encounters, quest opportunities, and in-world events
- Overcome enemies and epic bosses to earn experience, valuable loot and upgrade materials you can use to build a wicked arsenal of weapons, armor, and modifications
- Team up with up to two other players to increase your chances of survival. Teamwork is necessary to make it through the game’s toughest challenges… and unlock its greatest rewards.

I have been waiting for this!
I've put several hundred hours into the pc edition. Can't wait to take it on the go!
Third person shooter Souls-like. It is...a good game.
Physical? Or digital only?
Really fun game. Don't think I feel the need to double dip, but this is nice news anyway.
After how much I enjoyed Chronos: Before the Ashes (at least when I started playing on easy the first time of many playthroughs, I hated it the very first time on normal, but eventually went on to do a zero death run on normal and I believe a one-death run on hard, just because it kept on being fun), I've been wanting to try this game. On Switch, wasn't gonna get it on a non-portable device, or get a new device to have access to it. So this is potentially great news, if they add gyro aim and it runs well and gets a physical release.
Anyway, I'm interested, and will take this opportunity to remind you that Chronos: Before the Ashes is a great game on Switch, that can be found very cheap physically nowadays.
This game terrified the daylights out of me. Last game to do that was Zombi U, though I feel like that game relies too heavily on the jump scares. I’d probably hate to try a modern Resident Evil game.
Hmm on my radar now...
@Shambo before the ashes is a very good game, I don't think it got the recognition it deserves. It was a little bit like Sifu with the whole ageing thing they both share.
@DKGXX85 indeed. I wanted to explore it further in Chronos, but dying over and over with long load times just isn't fun. Sifu on the other hand made ageing go too fast to actually explore (the easy mode was actually my favourite in Sifu, even after beating it on harder settings as well, but it seemed to block out the true ending...). I just wanted to play both as an older person as well, or balance and prioritise growth more... doesn't change that I loved both games.
Thank you for telling me about there been a PC version of this game so I could get it right away and not be bother with the Switch and console ports unless they got physical release.
This game has a lot of praises, everyone I know that has played it loved it so I have to check this out provided it's a decent port but if their previous ports are anything to go by I'd say it'll be fine
If it runs well, absolutely day one for me.
Super fun game, it is also 3 player co-op, story is pretty good as well.
Fun game indeed!
A third-person ARPG like The Division! Definitely buying this.
Being published by THQ Nordic, I strongly suspect this will be released physically.
I wish you guys would say digital' release, as I always get my hopes up its a physical.
Sone games get released both physically and digitally so it would be nice to know.
@CJD87 they need to state on these articles
@ULTRA_Faff I’ll probably buy it either way, assuming reviews indicate that the port performance is acceptable. My preference would still be physical always though, when available (ability to sell/trade/lend etc)
IMO NintendoLife are usually very informative, so I assume they perhaps didn’t have the information at time of publishing?
