A little bit of Nindie love from Nintendo.
It wasn’t just the big games featured in tonight’s Mini Direct, Nindies got some love too.
Two indie games finally had their release dates revealed: Fe, from EA and Zoink games, and Celeste, from Matt Makes Games.
Fe is set to launch on the 16th of February, and you can read its description below, or click here to see the full game listing.
Fe is a new type of platform adventure where the story is up to you to discover, without handholding, told wordlessly through the discoveries you make during gameplay.
At the heart of the experience is a tactile, analogue song mechanic that allows you to communicate and speak to every living thing in the forest.
Learn a diverse array of animal cries that allow you to befriend or manipulate any creature – even plants. Have birds guide you, bears fight for you and have plants grow berries that help you overcome the Silent Ones.
Run, climb, and glide your way through a dark Nordic forest and explore its living, breathing world filled with secrets, legends and mystical creatures.
Become Fe and discover a world that you will never want to leave.
