SteamWorld Dig 2 classification suggests it’s headed to retail

Can you dig it?

SteamWorld Dig 2 was one of our favourite games of 2017 — heck, we even named it as our Switch Indie of the Year in our annual Vooks Awards last month — and now it looks like fans of the game are in for a bit of a treat.

Yesterday, the game was rated by the USK, Germany’s video game classification organisation, and today it’s been classified by the Australian Classification Board, all but confirming that SteamWorld Dig 2 is coming to retail.

The classification has been submitted with Rising Star Games as the publisher for both listings. It’s worth noting that while the ACB lists the title as multi-platform (as is the same with most Nintendo games), the USK listing specifically mentions the rating is for the Switch version. While we’ll of course wait for an official announcement, it’s pretty much a sure thing at this point.

Are you excited to hear that SteamWorld Dig 2 might be coming to retail? Do you plan on picking it up? Let us know in the comments below!
