Indie publisher and developer MoreGames has today announced that its twin-stick roguelike shooter, Doomsday Hunters, will be leaving early access and heading to Switch in just two days — that's 20th July, if you were wondering.

The game has been nine years in the making and combines some wonderfully detailed pixel art visuals with all of the gnarly explosions and monster attacks that you would expect from the genre. MoreGames has stated that replay value was one of the key considerations in the game's development, and we can certainly see a lot of options on the table as you choose from over 1,200 different items to take on opponents and make each run different from the last.

For a little more information on the game itself and a look at some screenshots, check out the following from the publishers:
